3、otocol -Signalling ATM Adaptation Layer(B-QSIG-SAAL).Brief HistoryThis Standard is one of a series of ECMA Standards defining services and signalling protocols applicable to Broadband PrivateIntegrated Services Networks (B-PISNs). The series uses B-ISDN concepts as developed by ITU-T and conforms to

4、 theframework of International Standards for Open Systems Interconnection as defined by ISO/IEC. It has been produced underETSI work item DEN/ECMA-00130.This particular Standard specifies the Signalling ATM Adaptation Layer (SAAL) protocol for use at the Q reference point.This Standard is based upon

5、 the practical experience of ECMA member companies and the results of their active andcontinuous participation in the work of ISO/IEC JTC1, ITU-T, ETSI and other international and national standardizationbodies. It represents a pragmatic and widely based consensus.This ECMA Standard is completely al

6、igned with International Standard ISO/IEC 13246 to be published by ISO/IEC.This ECMA Standard has been adopted by the General Assembly in September 1997.- i -Table of contents1 Scope 12 Conformance 13 References (normative) 14 Definitions 15 List of acronyms 16 Description 26.1 Common Part - AAL Typ

20、 It is based on the generic framework outlined byRecommendations I.362 for the functional description of the AAL, and Q.2100 for the signalling AAL specification.The B-QSIG SAAL allows a B-QSIG SAAL user (i.e. a layer 3 signalling protocol) to communicate with its peerentity. In particular, it provi

21、des for a reliable transfer of layer 3 signalling messages. The information transfer betweenthe B-QSIG SAAL user and the B-QSIG SAAL uses primitives and is performed in Message Mode.Two peer-to-peer operational procedures are specified: Unassured or Assured operation. The support of the Assuredopera

22、tion is mandatory. The support of Unassured operation is optional.NOTEThe use of unassured operation is not required by the B-QSIG layer 3 signalling protocol.The basic structure of the B-QSIG SAAL is contained in figure 1. For the B-QSIG SAAL, 3 sublayers are definedsimilar to those shown in figure

24、 SSCOP SDUs, segmentation into ATMcells, and reassembly.- 3 -6.2 SSCOPSSCOP provides the basic mechanisms for the establishment and release of connections and the reliable exchangeof information between B-PINX peer entities.6.3 SSCF for Broadband Inter-PINX SignallingSSCF maps the particular require

25、ments of the Broadband Inter-PINX layer 3 signalling protocols to the SSCOPservices.7 Operational RequirementsB-QSIG SAAL requires that the following configuration information is available at both sides of an IPL (the methodfor making this information available for both peer entities is outside the

26、scope of this Standard): which virtual channel acts as the signalling channels for the IPL which traffic management method is applied on that virtual channel.7.1 B-QSIG SAAL ConnectionsThe B-QSIG SAAL operates in a connection-oriented mode. The B-QSIG SAAL connection(s) shall be establishedas part o

27、f the IPL establishment, and shall reside permanently (except for error cases).NOTEB-QSIG SAAL connections are established between two peer entities at the two ends of an IPL.7.2 Traffic Management Method for B-QSIG SAAL ConnectionsFor the operation of the B-QSIG SAAL protocol, the peer entities at

28、two ends of an IPL shall be pre-configuredwith the traffic resources allocated to the B-QSIG SAAL connections. For each B-QSIG SAAL connection (or for aset of them together). the following are examples of parameters that can be pre-configured (see also ITU-T Rec.I.371):a) a peak cell rate indication

29、 (only), e.g. 167 cells/sec.b) peak cell rate, sustainable cell rate, and maximum burst size (together)c) an indication as “unspecified bit rate“ (UBR).The method of configuring the traffic resources allocated to the B-QSIG SAAL connection is outside the scope ofthis Standard. However, it is essenti

30、al for the traffic management of B-QSIG SAAL connections that both peerentities at the IPL apply the same allocation of parameters.8 B-QSIG SAAL Specification8.1 Basic StructureClause 5 of ITU-T Rec. Q.2100 applies.8.2 AAL Type 5ITU-T Rec. I.363.5 applies.8.3 SSCOPITU-T Rec. Q.2110 applies.NOTEThe S

31、SCOP can be combined with different Service Specific Coordination Functions (SSCFs) to offer different AALservices. As a result, the SSCOP specification defines mandatory functions for a general protocol. Some of thesefunctions are not needed within B-QSIG SAAL. Therefore, it is possible for an impl

32、ementation not to implement acertain SSCOP function and still meet the mandatory requirements of B-QSIG SAAL (e.g. the SSCOP local dataretrieval function is not needed within B-QSIG SAAL), provided that the SSCOP implementation provides for theservices used by the B-QSIG SAAL-SSCF.- 4 -A fully compl

35、 release of B-QSIG SAAL connections for assured transfer of data.B-QSIG SAAL connections are established during IPL establishment, and reside permanently. However, incertain error scenarios, the SSCF may release B-QSIG SAAL connections to recover from error situations.The following SAAL services may

36、 optionally be provided: unacknowledged transfer of data.The use of this service is not specified by the B-QSIG layer 3 signalling protocol.8.4.2 Functions of the SSCF and Signalling Protocol StackClause 6 of ITU-T Rec. Q.2130 applies with the following exception: only point-to-point B-QSIG SAAL con

37、nections shall be supported. In particular, B-QSIG SAAL shall notprovide the broadcast capability described in clause 6/Q.2130.8.4.3 Definition of the Boundary of SSCF to B-QSIG-Layer 3 ProtocolsClause 7 of ITU-T Rec. Q.2130 applies with the following exceptions: The support of the AAL-UNITDATA prim

38、itive is not mandatory. The use of this primitive is not specified byB-QSIG layer 3 signalling protocol. The support of layer 3 peer-to-peer messages in the AAL-ESTABLISH and AAL-RELEASE primitives is notmandatory. The use of those parameter data in these primitives is not specified by the B-QSIG la

Q.2130 applies with the following exception: The support of the AA-UNITDATA primitive is not mandatory.8.4.5 State Transition Table of SSCF for Supporting B-QSIG SignallingClause 9 of ITU-T Rec. Q.2130

40、 applies with the exceptions specified in sections 8.4.3 and 8.4.4 above.8.4.6 Boundary to Layer ManagementNo requirements have been identified.8.4.7 Applicability of SSCOP Parameters and Timers to B-QSIG SignallingThe values specified in table 4 of ITU-T Rec. Q.2130 are used as default parameters.H

41、owever, parameter and timer values at the B-QSIG-IPL shall be configurable, in order to be able to select aproper set of parameter and timer values depending on the use, condition, IPL link rate, round-trip delay, andreceiver resequencing buffer size. As a general guide, Timer_POLL should be set to

42、as large a value as possiblethat still maintains throughput efficiency and satisfies the average and maximum delivery of data.For the signalling channels at the Q reference point, no restrictions to operating at below 10 kbit/s applies.- 5 -8.4.8 PICS Proforma for SSCOP AND SSCOP-SSCFAnnex A applies
