9、tihoming. ii Rec. ITU-T Y.2056 (08/2011) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent or

10、gan of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the

11、 topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are

12、 prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendati

13、on may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used

14、 to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellect

15、ual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received n

16、otice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database at http:/www.itu.int/ITU-T/ipr/. IT

ITU-T Y.2056 (08/2011) 1 Recommendation ITU-T Y.2056 Framework of vertical multihoming in IPv6-based next generation networks 1 Scope As heterogeneous access technologies have been developed, network nodes have been given the

22、 ability to simultaneously connect multiple access networks to support reliability, load sharing and mobility. These simultaneous multiple connections are established through multiple accesses to next generation networks (NGNs) using multiple access technologies, multiple network interfaces, multipl

23、e Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) addresses and multiple transport sessions. To provide efficient simultaneous multiple connections, it is required to consider the impact from/on multiple access technologies, multiple network interfaces and multiple transport sessions. This Recommendation defines

24、 vertical multihoming as multihoming based on the characteristics of simultaneous multiple connections of several layers, which are managed vertically across several layers. This Recommendation describes a framework of vertical multihoming in IPv6-based NGN. This Recommendation describes or defines:

25、 vertical multihoming; requirements of vertical multihoming; methods of vertical multihoming; functional architecture of vertical multihoming; applications of vertical multihoming. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in th

37、access networks which allows flexible use of various interfaces. In addition, by using IPv6 multihoming capability ITU-T Y.2052, a network and/or a network node are able to have multiple network connections via multiple network interfaces with multiple IPv6 addresses. Although a network and/or a net

38、work node have multiple network connections with IPv6 multihoming, generally, it uses only one network connection at one time. Other network connections remain to prepare for a secondary (backup) connection and are used for special cases such as fault tolerance, providing higher bandwidth, load bala

39、ncing, and mobility. There is a difference between providing multiple network connections and providing simultaneous multiple network connections with respect to how many network connections are being utilized at a given moment. As heterogeneous access technologies are widely deployed in NGN, an NGN

40、 node can have the ability to connect various access networks simultaneously ITU-T Y.2001 and ITU-T Y.2011. In multiple network connections due to heterogeneous access networks, many layers are used to establish multiple network connections. From the point of view of the physical (PHY)/media access

41、control (MAC) layer, there may be multiple network interfaces/MAC protocols which are directly related to each access technology, and these multiple network interfaces/MAC protocols may be simultaneously used. So, in PHY/MAC layer, there are multiple link layer connections to communicate with other

42、nodes. From the network layers aspect, there may be multiple IPv6 addresses/IPv6 prefixes which are simultaneously used to establish multiple communication paths. So, in the network layer, there are multiple network layer connections to communicate with other nodes. From the transport layers aspect,

43、 there may be multiple transport layer sessions which are simultaneously used. When considering how multiple network connections are established, each layer has a specific role for multiple network connections. Multiple network connections are made with the help of each layer and there is no interac

44、tion or relationship between the layers. However, to make efficient multiple network connections and manage these connections, it is required to consider the interaction and the relationship between layers. To do this, the concept of vertical multihoming is used. In vertical multihoming, each layer

45、has its specific multihoming features, which should be harmonized between layers. Figure 1 shows the multihoming of each layer and vertical multihoming. This Recommendation defines vertical multihoming as multihoming based on the characteristics of simultaneous multiple connections of several layers

46、, which are managed vertically across several layers. 4 Rec.

48、tihoming, each layer has multihoming features and many network resources are used to establish multiple network connections. In PHY/MAC layer, multiple access technologies, multiple network interfaces, and multiple radios are network resources. In the network layer, multiple IPv6 addresses and multi

49、ple IPv6 prefixes are network resources. In the transport layer, multiple transport sessions are network resources. To establish multiple network connections and manage network resources efficiently, an integrated and harmonized network management is needed. 7 Requirements of vertical multihoming in IPv6-based NGN With regard to the requirements of multihoming for IPv6-based NGN, the general, site specific, and host specific requirements are described in ITU-T Y.2052. As vertical multihoming is based on
