9、41 (12/2003) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff q
10、uestions 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 Recommendat
11、ions 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 Recommendatio
12、n, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or
13、 applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or 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
14、with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or ap
15、plicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to im
16、plement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database.

20、 of service (QoS) information collection, aggregation and exchange between service customers, service providers and network operators for IP-based services. In the context of this Recommendation, service providers (SPs) include telecom SPs, Internet SPs, application SPs and content SPs. Service cust
21、omers include end-customers and other SPs. Functions and interfaces required to manage end-to-end QoS are specified for the complete service life cycle. This Recommendation provides requirements in the form of use cases and preliminary information related to the analysis phase. This Recommendation a
22、lso recognizes the business need to manage QoS across multiple SPs. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were va

33、sical or logical point at which measurements can be made and to which the data obtained is related, e.g., a measurement point in a network or a step in the business process dependant upon the service life cycle. In the implementation phase of the service life cycle, it could be the time that an orde
34、r is received by the service provider. 3.2 observation: An observation is used by the service customer to monitor the QoS of the telecommunication service provided to the SC by the SP. An observation is associated with exactly two measurement points. 3.3 end-to-end QoS: The QoS service level metrics
35、 relevant to the service being delivered as perceived by the SC.

36、 in a typical network. The Internet Service Provider (ISP) receives telecommunication services from two Telecommunication Service Providers (TSPs). Network Operators (NOs) define the Measurement Points (MPs) at each end of their responsible part of the network. They have responsibilities to observe
37、their part of the network. MP-a and MP-b ITU-T Rec. M.3341 (12/2003) 3 are defined at the ingress and egress of one NOs network. Likewise, MP-g and MP-h are defined at the ingress and egress of another NOs network. Each TSP receives services from two Network Operators (NOs). TSPs have responsibiliti
38、es to observe their part of the networks, in Figure 3-1, spanning across two NOs networks. The ISP, which has a primary contract with the Service Customer (SC), has the responsibility to observe end-to-end QoS of the entire network, not merely a part of one TSP, and also has the responsibility to pr
39、ovide the observation data to SC. The SC is able to define an observation between the measurement points MP-a and MP-h. The observation provides QoS measurements from the ingress to the egress of the ISPs network regardless of the service providers or network operators involved. 4 Abbreviations and

43、 business processes and TMN management services as defined in ITU-T Rec. M.3200 and TMN management function sets as defined in ITU-T Rec. M.3400. In order to understand and analyse these interactions, there are at least five phases of the service life cycle that should be considered. These five phas
44、es are shown in Figure 5-1: Service product planning and development; Negotiation and sales of a service product; Implementation (configuration, provisioning and commissioning) of a service product; Operation and maintenance of a service product; Periodic assessment of the QoS of a service and wheth

46、Figure 5-1/GB917) The following subclauses describe those aspects of each phase related to QoS and SLA management across the X-interface between two TMN domains, but not all of the aspects involved in each phase within a single TMN domain. Furthermore, in some cases e.g., leased circuit services, th
47、e negotiation and sales phase is sometimes split into two phases: pre-ordering and ordering. Descriptions of these five phases are described in detail in GB 917. 5.1 Service product planning and development When planning and developing a service product, consideration must be given to a number of Qo
48、S and SLA aspects. In addition to the generic parameters there are technology-specific parameters. For example, in the case of IP-based services, these parameters and limits should be based on ITU-T Recs Y.1540, Y.1541 and M.2301. These Recommendations define QoS classes and the Network Performance
49、(NP) parameters and limits designed to support certain applications e.g., VoIP, streaming video, etc. However, if the service is a pure packet delivery service, the QoS parameters and limits will be the same as the NP. Further information is given in 6. 5.2 Negotiation and sales During this phase, the service provider must negotiate and agree with the customer technical details of specific instances of the service product offered. The QoS parameters and limits may be the same as those offered in the
