10、 tools for real-time transport protocol (RTP) traffic in ITU-T H.248 profiles. Such tools are related to RTP control protocol (RTCP) reports and the use of the ITU-T H.248-based gateway control interface for configuring measurement, filtering and reporting activities. These profile guidelines may be

11、 used by other standards developing organizations (SDOs) when defining their ITU-T H.248.1 profiles in support of ITU-T H.248 procedures and packages related to RTP bearer traffic with associated RTCP reports.

The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and

14、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 topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Rec

15、ommendations 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 prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recom

32、/2014) 1 Recommendation ITU-T H.248.87 Gateway control protocol: Guidelines on the use of ITU-T H.248 capabilities for performance monitoring in RTP networks in ITU-T H.248 profiles 1 Scope The scope of this Recommendation covers performance monitoring in RTP networks with the involvement of ITU-T H

33、.248 entities. Performance monitoring as such is a network service across multiple network entities which are located in user, control and/or management planes. The scope of this Recommendation is limited to the user/control/management plane interfaces of ITU-T H.248 entities. The notion of performa

34、nce monitoring is used to emphasize a call/session dependent service, which is basically in contrast to the legacy performance management capability, which is a pure management plane function (see ITU-T M.3010 and ITU-T M.60). Performance monitoring could be considered as a network overlay function.

35、 This Recommendation provides: an overview of the existing “entire ITU-T H.248 toolkit“ for RTCP extended report (XR) support, i.e., the set of available ITU-T H.248 packages in that area an overview of available ITU-T H.248 packages for non-XR related performance metrics, typically subject to RTCP

37、 classification of performance metrics (such as application-level versus transport-level metrics) in order to indicate applicability or not for ITU-T H.248 MGs the following principal ITU-T H.248 MG tasks: measurement of RTP traffic reporting of measurement data via RTCP XR reports collection of RTC

40、rol of measurement methods (such as interval, cumulative and alert type of measurements) usage of ITU-T H.248.47-based conditional reporting ITU-T H.248.47. 2 Rec. ITU-T H.248.87 (01/2014) This Recommendation also discusses the purpose of performance monitoring (and therefore the possible motivation

41、 of a use case). For example: capture of grade-of-service (GoS) related data in order to evaluate network conditions capture of quality of service (QoS) and quality of experience (QoE) related data in order to evaluate service conditions (e.g., as part of service level agreements) capture of billing

42、/charging related data capture of data as input for routing algorithms capture of data as input for network node selection algorithms capture of data as input for centralized servers as support of network operations capture of data as part of online tests. 1.1 Framework and layout of this Recommenda

43、tion The scope, purpose, structuring principle and framework of this Recommendation are summarized in Figure 1. The primary audience of this Recommendation are authors of ITU-T H.248 profile specifications, which aim to support a particular network performance monitoring use case, and the considerat

44、ion of a specific location and/or type of an ITU-T H.248 MG. Performance monitoring support could affect three areas of an ITU-T H.248 profile: 1. basic protocol capabilities (such as connection model); 2. packages and their detailed usage; and/or 3. call-dependent procedures. This Recommendation pr

45、ovides guidelines for these profile areas. Typically to define an ITU-T H.248 profile there are several steps that are followed, according to Figure 1, given by: 1. Requirements stage: selecting use case(s) and the identification of required MG behaviour in terms of measurements, reporting, filterin

46、g, etc. capabilities; 2. Protocol stage: addressing the necessary templates of the indicated profile areas and recommended input; and 3. Profile stage: incorporating “guidelines“ in an actual profile specification and adapting the templates to the concrete specification setting. Rec. ITU-T H.248.87
