21、he present document specifies the standards for Signalling Transport to be used across X2 interface. X2 interface is a logical interface between eNBs. The present document describes how the X2-AP signalling messages are transported over X2. 2 References The following documents contain provisions whi

23、, the latest version applies.

29、2 Signalling Bearer is shown in figure 4.1 and details on each protocol are described in the following sections. SCTP IP Data link layer X2-AP Physical layer Radio Network Layer TransportNetworkLayer Figure 4.1: X2 signalling bearer protocol stack The Transport Network Layer is based on IP transport

30、, comprising SCTP on top of IP. 5 Data link layer The support of any suitable Data Link Layer protocol, e.g. PPP, Ethernet, etc. , shall not be prevented. 6 IP layer The eNB shall support IPv6 (IETF RFC 2460 2) and/or IPv4 (IETF RFC 791 3). The IP layer of X2 only supports point-to-point transmissio

31、n for delivering X2-AP message. The eNB shall support the Diffserv Code Point marking as described in IETF RFC 2474 4. 7 Transport layer SCTP (IETF RFC 4960 5) shall be supported as the transport layer of X2 signalling bearer. The Payload Protocol Identifier assigned by IANA to be used by SCTP for t

32、he application layer protocol X2AP is 27. SCTP refers to the Stream Control Transmission Protocol developed by the Sigtran working group of the IETF for the purpose of transporting various signalling protocols over IP network. There shall be only one SCTP association established between one eNB pair

33、. An eNB shall use the Destination Port Number value 36422 assigned by IANA to be used for X2AP and this value shall also be used in Source Port Number by all eNBs within a network. NOTE: A multi-homed eNB implementation should provide the correspondent eNB with the set of IP addresses supported dur

34、ing SCTP association establishment unless the correspondent eNB already has this information e.g. through IP address management. An arbitrary eNB shall be able to initiate the INIT procedure towards another eNB for establishing the SCTP association. ETSI ETSI TS 136 422 V15.0.0 (2018-07)73GPP TS 36.

35、422 version 15.0.0 Release 15Within the SCTP association established between one eNB pair; - A single pair of stream identifiers shall be reserved for the sole use of X2AP elementary procedures that utilize non UE-associated signalling. - At least one pair of stream identifiers shall be reserved for

36、 the sole use of X2AP elementary procedures that utilize UE-associated signalling. However a few pairs (i.e. more than one) should be reserved. - A single UE-associated signalling shall use one SCTP stream and the stream should not be changed during the communication of the UE-associated signalling.

37、 Transport network redundancy may be achieved by SCTP multi-homing between two end-points, of which one or both is assigned with multiple IP addresses. SCTP end-points shall support a multi-homed remote SCTP end-point. For SCTP endpoint redundancy an INIT may be sent from either of the eNBs, at any

38、time for an already established SCTP association, which shall be handled as defined in IETF RFC 4960 5 in subclause 5.2. The SCTP congestion control may, using an implementation specific mechanism, initiate higher layer protocols to reduce the signalling traffic at the source and prioritise certain

39、messages. ETSI ETSI TS 136 422 V15.0.0 (2018-07)83GPP TS 36.422 version 15.0.0 Release 15Annex A (informative): Change History TSG # TSG Doc.
