It describes how inc

ITU-T H.248.79 (02/2012) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologie

11、s (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ 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 Telecommunic

12、ation Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the 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

13、information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are 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

14、 agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation 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

15、 some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used 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

16、 or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual 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 developmen

ITU-T H.248.79 (02/2012) 1 Recommendation ITU-T H.248.79 Gateway control protocol: Guidelines for packet-based streams 1 Scope This Recommendation defines guidelines for handling ITU-T H.248 Streams that use a packet-b

23、ased network as their underlying bearer technology. Two significant points are covered by the guidelines: 1) How packets incoming into the MG are classified to a specific combination of Stream, Termination and Context. 2) In what order different operations (usually controlled by different packages)

24、are applied to incoming and outgoing packets. Furthermore, this Recommendation: 3) Provides qualitative statements concerning generic processing costs on packet handling. 4) Discusses in more detail the classification and filtering of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/Internet Protocol (IP) traffi

This is accomplished via single- or multi-field matching of traffic h

37、eader and/or payload data. “Filters“ are often manipulated and used in network operation and policy. A filter rule is a specific policy rule. In the ITU-T H.248 context, packet filters specify the criteria for matching a pattern to distinguish separable classes of traffic. Filters are only related t

38、o ephemeral terminations. Filter rules are defined on the basis of ITU-T H.248 properties. NOTE 1 This filter definition implies the concept of filter actions, besides filter conditions. 3.1.2 lookup key ITU-T H.248.61: Flow identifier elements that can be used for packet classification with regard

39、to ITU-T H.248 Context delivery. NOTE 2 The embedded terms, flow identifier and flow are defined by clauses 3.1.2 and 3.1.1 in ITU-T H.248.61. 3.2 Term defined in this Recommendation This Recommendation defines the following term: 3.2.1 classification rule: The rule used to match packets with a spec

44、 Classification of packets into streams 6.1 Overview 6.1.1 Terminations with one or multiple streams For the media-gateway to operate correctly, it must be able to classify and deliver each incoming packet into a single, specific ITU-T H.248 stream. Once this classification is made, the packet is al

45、so associated with the termination hosting the stream, and the context holding the termination. The rule used to match packets with a specific stream is referred as the streams classification rule. This rule is based on information that can appear in one or more of the following protocol elements: 1

46、) The contents of the streams local and remote descriptors. 2) Properties appearing in the streams LocalControl descriptor. 3) The type and TerminationID of the termination hosting the stream. 4) Properties appearing in the TerminationState descriptor of the termination hosting the stream. 5) Proper

47、ties appearing in the ContextAttributes descriptor of the context holding the streams termination. The set of protocol elements used in the creation of the classification rule are referred to as lookup keys. Some ITU-T H.248 packages mandate or prohibit the use of certain elements as lookup keys. An

48、 MG implementing such a package shall follow these requirements when creating classification rules. For most protocol elements, however, there is no normative requirement concerning classification rules. Whether each element is used as a lookup key is therefore dependant on the particular use cases

49、or the employed ITU-T H.248 profile. For example, certain use cases may call for the MG to consider a source-filter attribute (see b-IETF RFC 4570 appearing in a session description protocol (SDP) local descriptor as a lookup key), while other use cases may require that such an attribute be ignored. Usually, a logical AND operation is assumed between all the single conditions (with their lookup keys) of the overall compound condition of a classification rule, i.e., a pac
