12、al Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the ITU. The ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendatio

13、ns on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The

14、approval of Recommendations by the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1 (Helsinki, March 1-12, 1993). In some areas of information technology which fall within IT-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC

Terms and definitions For the purposes of ISDN performance Recommendations, the following definitions apply. 3.1 measurement point (MP): A measurement point is located at a

31、n interface that separates either customer equipmentcustomer network (CEQ) or a Switching/Signalling Node (SSN) fkom an attached transmission system at which ITU-recommended protocols can be observed. NOTES 1 The term SSN collectively denotes any equipment that accesses the connection in the transpo

32、rt 2 With regard to the definitions of customer equipment and customer network, see Recommendations 1.430 and 1.570 respectively. 3 As defined, MPs exist at many physical interfaces in a connection. It is not the intention in these Recommendations to speci performance between arbitrary pairs of MPs

33、- particularly pairs within a nation. These Recommendations will only specie the performance of portions delimited by MPTs and MPIs. network under consideration. 4 Recommendation 1.356 locates MPs within the ATM interfaces, see 5.9. 3.2 measurement point T (MPT): A measurement point T is located at

34、an interface associated with a T reference point. This interface separates CEQ from an attached digital section. In order to delimit clearly the national portion and its allocation of performance, the MPT is located at the point that marks the limit of the public network operators responsibility. Th

35、is may be different fkom the ideal location for observing the ITU-recommended protocols. For example, in B-ISDN, the ideal MPs are within the ATM layer. Since a given ATM layer (VP and/or VC) is likely to terminate within CEQ, ATM events will not be directly observable at those termination points. T

36、wo practical methods for measuring at the MPT are: i) locating a physical test set at the MPT and replicating the relevant protocol layers outside of the CEQ; or 2 Recommendation 1.353 (08/96) - COPYRIGHT International Telecommunications Union/ITU TelecommunicationsLicensed by Information Handling S

37、ervicesii) approximating the performance at the MPT by observations made at the nearest convenient point within the network. 3.3 measurement point I (MPI): A measurement point I is located at an interface that terminates a transmission system at an International Switching Centre (ISC). The exact loc

38、ation of the MPI depends on the connection type and is specified, for each connection type, in the associated Network Performance Recommendation (see Note). For each MPT within a nation, the set of associated MPls is the set of MPIs within the same nation. MPTs and individual associated MPIs delimit

39、 portions of an end-to-end ISDN connection for which performance objectives are specified. NOTE - The MPT and MPI for B-ISDN are defined in 5.9. 3.4 ISDN reference event: An ISDN reference event is the transfer of a discrete unit of control or user information encoded in accordance with ITU-recommen

40、ded protocols across an MP. Specified information units and associated resulting protocol states are identified by an event code used for reference in defining performance parameters. The resulting state in turn establishes which reference events can occur subsequently. Two classes of reference even

41、ts are distinguished: exit events and entry events. 3.5 exit event: An exit event occurs when a unit of control or user information crosses the MP exiting the SSN or CEQ into the attached transmission system. 3.6 entry event: An entry event occurs when a unit of control or user information crosses t

42、he MP entering the SSN or CEQ from the attached transmission system. If retransmissions occur, the exit event occurs with the first transmission and the entry event occurs with the last transmission. NOTE - For practical measurement purposes, reference events can be observed at a physical location t

43、hat differs from the actual MP. This physical location should, however, be as near as possible to the MP. In cases where reference events are monitored at a physical interface, the time of occurrence of an actual exit event can best be approximated by the observation of the first bit of the unit of

44、control or user information out of the SSN or CEQ. The time of occurrence of an entry event can best be approximated by the observation of the last bit of the unit of control or user information into the SSN or CEQ. Figures 1 and 2 illustrate these concepts. 1 The differences in MPI location among c

45、onnection types are a result of the need to ensure consistency between the emerging ISDN performance Recommendations and existing Recommendations that speci the performance of service-dedicated networks. As circuit mode, packet mode, and other transfer capabilities are more fully integrated into ISD

46、Ns, it may be possible to identie common measurement points.
