8、96. Keywords B-ISDN, maintenance, Telecommunications Management Network (TMN). FOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (-T) is a permanent organ of the ITU. Some

9、 179 member countries, 84 telecom operating entities, 145 scientific and industrial organizations and 38 international organizations participate in LTU-T which is the body which sets world telecommunications standards (Recommendations). The approval of Recommendations by the Members of ITU-T is cove

10、red by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1 (Helsinki, 1993). In addition, the World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, approves Recommendations submitted to it and establishes the study programme for the following period. In some areas of

11、information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC.

15、YING THE TMN CONCEPT TO THE MANAGEMENT OF B-ISDN (Geneva, 1996) 1 Scope 1.1 General This Recommendation defines B-ISDN management concepts for maintenance aspects of fault, performance, configuration and security management of B-ISDN subscriber installations, networks, including access and transit n

16、etworks and interworking between B-ISDNs and between B-ISDNs and other networks. In addition, this Recommendation defines the relationship between B-ISDN and the TMN. This Recommendation introduces a series of Recommendations that: a) b) c) describe the reference model that shows the relations of th

17、e TMN and its functional interfaces to B-ISDN equipment; define the management functions provided through the TMN when management activities are performed in the B-ISDN; define extensions to the generic network information model needed to support B-ISDN. 1.2 Relation to other Recommendations This Re

18、commendation extends Recommendation M.3600 4 to B-ISDNs. Additional concepts and definitions for B-ISDNs are included. Recommendation M.3010 2 specifies the TMN interfaces and reference points that are referred to in this Recommendation. Recommendation 1.610 7 describes OAM functions to be provided

19、in network equipment for the purpose of layer management, while this Recommendation focuses on the TMN role in the management of B-ISDN. Recommendation M.3207.1 9 specifies the TMN management service for B-ISDN according to the methodology specified in Recommendation M.3020 i i. That is, the descrip

20、tion of the TMN management service, the relationship to other TMN management services, the resource/service overview, the architecture, and TMN management function sets are described. The TMN management function sets are identified from the maintenance aspects of fault, performance, configuration an

21、d security management. 2 References The following Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.

27、s Digital Hierarchy (SOH). Definitions For the definitions of management function entities, see Recommendation M.3600 4. For the purposes of this Recommendation, the following definitions apply. 3.1 Broadband Exchange Termination (B-ET): B-ET is placed at a local exchange to terminate the subscriber

28、 transmission line and the signalling virtual connection. Maintenance functions included in exchange termination functions may be derived from Recommendation I. 1 12 141. These functions are: e supervision of information related to or received from the B-ISDN digital section; e transmission performa

29、nce evaluation. 3.2 Broadband Network Termination 1 (B-NT1): B-NT1 is a functional group, which includes functions equivalent to layer 1 of the OS1 reference model. Examples of B-NT1 functions are: e line transmission termination; transmission interface handling; e OAM functions. For the detailed sp

30、ecification of B-NT1, see Recommendation 1.413 121. 3.3 functions belonging to layer 1 and higher layers of X.200 reference model. Broadband Terminal Equipment (B-TE): B-TE is a functional group that includes 2 Recommendation M.3610 (05/96) ITU-T RECNN*N=3bLO 96 H 4862571 0617978 429 m Examples of B

31、-TE functions are: o useduser and usedmachine dialogue and protocol; interface termination and other layer 1 functions; connection handling to other equipment; o e protocol handling for signalling; e OAM functions. For the detailed specification of B-TE, see Recommendation 1.413 12. 3.4 Communicatio

32、n Function (CF): CF is the capability to exchange management information between B-ET and B-NT1 for OAM-OSF to manage B-NT1. 3.5 Interface Management Application (IMA): An application placed at either an ET or a TE to perform interface management. The IMA of an ET or a TE can exchange information fo

33、r the purpose of management. If the MA of an ET receives requests to invoke interface management from the OAM-OSF, management information is exchanged between MAS using interface management services. The IMA then passes the results to the OAM-OSF. Similarly, if the IMA of a TE receives requests from

34、 the subscriber or the MSP-OSF, management information is exchanged between IMAs using interface management services. The IMA then passes the results to the subscriber or the Management Services Provider OSF (MSP-OSF). 3.6 Interworking Function (IWF): IWF is the function that interconnects 3-ISDN an

35、d other networks with transforming information between the ATM cell format and other formats. 3.7 management functions: See Recommendations M.60 5, M.3200 3 and M.3400 lo. 3.8 Management Service Provider (MSP): MSP is an organization that provides maintenance services to subscriber. For details, see

36、 Recommendation M.3600 4. 3.9 management services: See Recommendations M.60 5 and M.3200 3. 3.10 Network Element Function (NEF): See Recommendation M.3010 2. 3.1 1 Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM): See Recommendation M.3600 4. This Recommendation uses the term OAM to describe the set

37、of management applications related to internal operation of the network. Namely, the management activities on subscriber installations are excluded from the OAM applications. 3.12 Operations Systems Function (OSF): See Recommendation M.3010 2. 3.13 q-reference point: See Recommendation M.3010 2. 3.1

38、4 43 interfaces: See Recommendation M.3010 2. 3.15 Subscriber Access (SA): SA is the network portion that is placed between the subscriber and the associated local exchange. The SA consists of B-NT1, B-ET, and the subscriber transmission line. For detailed configurations of B-ISDN subscriber access,

Recommendation M.3207.1 9 defines the TMN management services needed for B-ISDN including the app

41、lication of M.3400 IO functions to B-ISDN and the definition of new management functions. 4.1 Maintenance phases In performing maintenance, the following maintenance phases from M.20 i apply: performance measurement; failure detection; system restoration; failure or performance information; fault lo

42、calization; logistic delay; fault correction; verification; restoration. TMN management function sets The following management function sets and groups are used to provide the TMN support of M.20 i maintenance phases. The details of these management function sets are found in Recommendation M.3207.1

43、 9: alarm surveillance; testing; fault correction; performance management control; NE configuration; security management; virtual channel connection alarm generation control; continuity check control; ATM performance monitoring control; ATM test control. Entities to be managed In B-ISDN, entities to

44、 be managed include the following: - physical layer, both SDH and cell based; - ATM virtual path links and connections; - ATM virtual channel links and connections; - B-ISDN functional groups: B-ET, B-NTl, B-NT2, B-TE. 4 Recommendation M.3610 (0996) ITU-T RECMN*M-3630 9b 4862591 Ob37980 087 = 5 This
