ITU-T Recommendation 1.356 B-ISDN ATM layer cell transfer performance Summary This Recommendation defines parameters for quantifying the ATM cell transfer Performance of a broadband ISDN connection. It includes adjusted parameter definitions that might be used

8、when cells do not conform with the negotiated traffic contract. This Recommendation includes provisional performance objectives for cell transfer, some of which depend on the users selection of quality-of- service (QoS) class. Recommendation includes the definitions for those QoS classes. Finally, e

9、ach performance objective is allocated to the individual national portions involved in providing the international connection. Annexes A, B, C and D provide information about ATM adaptation layer performance, information about factors contributing to cell transfer delay and cell delay variation, inf

10、ormation about performance measurement methods, and information about QoS preferences conveyed through signalling. Source ITU-T Recommendation 1.356 was revised by ITU-T Study Group 13 (1997-2000) and approved under the WTSC Resolution 1 procedure on 1 O March 2000. Keywords AAL performance, ATM, AT

37、tion 1.356 B-ISDN ATM layer cell transfer performance 1 Scope This Recommendation defines speed, accuracy, and dependability performance parameters for cell transfer in the ATM layer of a broadband ISDN. The defined parameters apply to end-to-end ATM connections and to specified portions of such con

38、nections. The parameters are defined on the basis of ATM cell transfer reference events which may be observed at physical interfaces between ATM networks and associated customer equipment, and at physical interfaces between ATM networks. NOTE 1 -The parameters defined in this Recommendation may be a

39、ugmented or modified based upon further study of the requirements of the services to be supported on broadband ISDNs. NOTE 2 -The parameters defined in clause 6 apply to cell streams in which all cells conform with the negotiated ITU-T 1.371 traffic contract. Clause 7 illustrates one way of extendin

40、g the definitions and measurement methods to cell streams in which some cells do not conform with the traffic contract. It is recognized that further work is needed in this area. NOTE 3 - The performance objectives and allocations are intended to characterize ATM connections in the available state.

41、Availability decision parameters and associated availability parameters and their objectives are the subject of ITU-T 1.357. NOTE 4 - The performance objectives and allocations are design objectives and thus are expected to be achieved by a high percentage of network connections. They are not, howev

42、er, intended to be guaranteed on a per-switched-connection basis. Clause 8 recommends ATM performance values to be achieved internationally for each of the defined parameters. Some of these values depend on which Quality of Service (QoS) class the end- users and network providers agree on for the co

43、nnection. Clause 8 defines five different QoS classes. lause 9 provides guidance on the allocated performance levels that each specified portion should ide in order to achieve the recommended end-to-end international performance. material in clauses 4-7 is equally applicable to international virtual

44、 channel connections (VCC) d international virtual path connections (VPC). The international objectives and allocations in s 8 and 9 are also applicable to both VCCs and VPCs. However, the end users (customers) of ernational VPC will often be two networks that use the VPC to support individual VCCs.

45、 In to meet the end-to-end objectives on each VCC, the performance of the supporting VPC must etter. The degree to which the VPC performance must be better is for further study. llowing ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through nce in this text, constitute provisio
