ITU-T RECOMMENDATION E.351 ROUTING OF MULTIMEDIA CONNECTIONS ACROSS TDM-, ATM- AND IP-BASED NETWORKS Summary There are many network operators who have implemented multiple networks using diff

11、erent network-layer (layer-3) routing protocols, which include TDM-, ATM-, and/or IP-based technology. Rapid growth of multimedia IP-based services has led in turn to ATM and IP technology being implemented and/or planned for PSTNs. Established routing methods are recommended for application across

12、network types (summarized in Table i), and include the following: a) E. 1 64NSAP-based number translationrouting; b) automatic generation of routing tables based on network topology and status; c) automatic update and synchronization of topology databases, d) dynamic route selection; and e) QoS reso

13、urce management. Signalling and information-exchange requirements needed to support these routing methods are recommended, and include the connectivity management and routing policy parameters summarized in Table 4.

Recommendation E.351 (03/2000) 1 FOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a

15、permanent organ of the ITU. The 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 Conference (WTSC), which meets every four

16、years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of Recommendations by the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1. In some areas of information technology which f

17、all within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

29、on Multiplexing (TDM) technology, Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) technology, and/or Internet Protocol (IP) technology. The very rapid growth of data services driven primarily by multimedia IP-based services has led in turn to the rapid growth of ATM and IP technology being implemented and/or plann

30、ed for PSTNs. Also, there is interest in carrying traditional PSTN voice services over ATM- and IP-based networks, leading to the convergence in many instances of voice and data services onto a common network. Therefore it is important to address the intenvorking of voice and data services over TDM-

31、, ATM-, and IP-based PSTN networks, and - in particular - to address the intenvorking of routing methods across these different types of networks. This Recommendation addresses routing used within single networks and across different networks; it deals with both routing methods and the information e

32、xchange required to support such methods. The treatment of routing methods includes recommendations on: a) number translationrouting; b) routing table management; c) route selection; and d) quality-of-service (QoS) resource management. The signalling and information-exchange requirements of these ro

33、uting methods are also addressed and recommendations made. Various routing protocols are used in TDM-, ATM-, and IP-based networks. In TDM-based networks, for example, Recommendation E.350 describes fixed and dynamic routing methods for use in TDM-based networks. In ATM-based networks, for example,

34、the Private Network-to-Network Interface (PNNI) standard adopted by the ATM Forum ATM9600551 provides for: o exchange of node and link status information; automatic update and synchronization of topology databases; fixed and/or dynamic route selection based on topology and status information; and si

35、gnalling and information exchange standards. o o o In IP-based networks, for example, the open shortest path first (OSPF), border gateway protocol (BGP), multiprotocol label switching (MPLS), and other standards adopted by the Internet Engineering Task Force M98, S95 and J99 provide for all of the s

36、ame features listed above for PNNI, but in a connectionless IP-based packet network. There is interest in intenvorking fixed and dynamic routing methods across TDM-, ATM-, and IP-based networks to include fixed routing (FR), time-dependent routing (TDR), state-dependent routing (SDR), and event-depe

37、ndent routing (EDR) methods, applied primarily in non-hierarchical networks. A multimedia connection will often traverse more than one network type, and hence may be routed end-to-end using more than one fixed or dynamic routing method. This Recommendation covers the intenvorking of different types

38、of fixed and dynamic routing methods and their associated information-exchange needs at the interface across various network types, in order to complete a connection originating in one node and terminating in another, where the originating, via, and destination nodes may operate different routing me

39、thods. This Recommendation addresses the intenvorking of routing methods for all services including multimedia services and only considers point-to-point connections (multipoint connections are left for future work). Substantial improvements in network cost efficiency and robustness result fiom the

40、introduction of efficient routing. A fiamework is needed to support intenvorking of different routing methods and information-exchange across various TDM-, ATM-, and IP-based network types, perhaps implemented on different vendor equipment, for routing between network operators, national as well as

41、international. Standardisation of information flows is needed, so that switching equipment fiom Recommendation E.351 (03/2000) V different vendors can intenvork across various network types to implement routing strategies in a coordinated fashion. Routing intenvorking standards are needed for applic

42、ation to intenvorking between multivendor networks of various types. This includes the international network among many network operators who use different vendor equipment and networking protocols, including TDM-, ATM-, and IP-based protocols. More specifically, this Recommendation addresses the nu

43、mber translationrouting, routing table management, route selection, and quality-of-service (QoS) resource management methods needed for routing within each network type and for routing intenvorking between network types. In particular, the following established routing methods employed within the id

44、entified network type(s) are recommended for application across network types: a) the E. 164NSAP based number translationrouting methods applied in TDM- and ATM-based networks; b) the automatic generation of routing tables based on network topology and status applied in TDM-, ATM-, and IP-based netw

45、orks; c) the automatic update and synchronization of topology database methods applied in ATM- and IP-based networks; d) the dynamic route selection methods applied in TDM-based networks; and e) the QoS resource management methods applied in TDM-based networks. Table 1 summarizes the recommended rou

46、ting methods across various network technologies. In addition, this Recommendation identifies the signalling and information-exchange requirements needed to support these routing methods. These include: a) carrying E.164 NSAPs, international network routing addresses, and IP addresses in connection-

47、setup information elements (IEs); b) the topology update information exchange applied in ATM- and IP-based networks; c) the routing table design information exchange applied in TDM-based networks; d) the route selection information exchange applied in ATM-based networks; and e) originating-node-cont

48、rolled (source) routing, with specification of via and destination nodes in a parameter in a connection-setup E, and return of control to the originating node with a crankbackbandwidth-not-available parameter in the connection-release E. Table 4 summarizes the recommended signalling and information-

49、exchange parameters to support the routing methods recommended in Table 1, as well the recommended standards to support the parameters. vi Recommendation E.351 (03/2000) Recommendation E.351 ROUTING OF MULTIMEDIA CONNECTIONS ACROSS TDM-, ATM- AND IP-BASED NETWORKS (Geneva, 2000) 1 Scope This Recommendation addresses routing methods and information exchange needed within and between TDM-, ATM-, and IP-based network and routing technology.
