ITU-T Q.3308.1 (03/2012) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication

11、 Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTS

12、A), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations 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 w

13、ithin ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recom

14、mendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language suc

15、h as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommen

16、dation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approv

17、al of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB pa

23、ion physical entity and a customer premises network gateway policy enforcement physical entity (Rh interface): COPS alternative 1 Scope This Recommendation specifies the protocol used between a policy decision physical entity (PD-PE) and a customer premises network (CPN) gateway policy enforcement p

24、hysical entity (CGPE-PE). The functional requirements of the Rh interface are contained in ITU-T Y.2111. The Rh interface between a PD-PE in the access network and a CGPE-PE can be handled by quality of service (QoS) resource control modes, such as push mode and pull mode. That is, the Rh interface

25、allows the final admission decisions to be installed (either pushed or pulled) to the CGPE-PE from the PD-PE. The normative part of this Recommendation uses or refers to messages which are defined, and whose behaviours are described, in one or more IETF RFCs. To help the users of this Recommendation

26、, a list of all these messages and their origins are provided in Annex B. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.

The interface is defined in ITU-T Y.2111. The Rh reference point allows the final admis

40、ity (PD-PE) The PD-PE is a physical element that coordinates a resource reservation request received from the service control entity (SCE). The PD-PE makes policy decisions using network resource and admission control based on network policy rules and service level agreements (SLAs). 6.3.2 CPN gatew

41、ay policy enforcement physical entity (CGPE-PE) The CGPE-PE is a physical element that enforces the network policy rules instructed by the PD-PE in the access network via the Rh interface. The CGPE-PE should be able to support the opening and closing gate; rate limiting and bandwidth allocation; tra

42、ffic classification and marking; traffic policing and shaping; mapping of the Internet Protocol (IP) layer QoS information onto link layer QoS information based on pre-defined static policy rules; collecting and reporting resource usage information; etc. 7 Resource control procedures 7.1 Procedures

43、at the PD-PE 7.1.1 Resource initiation 7.1.1.1 Transport subscription profile verification The Rh interface allows the PD-PE to push policy decisions to the CGPE-PE. The PD-PE verifies the transport profile received from the network attachment control entity (NACE). Thus, the PD-PE acquires the QoS

44、class, priority of reservation, and maximum and/or minimum uplink and downlink bandwidth. 7.1.1.2 Transport resource detection and admission The PD-PE is required to confirm transport resources availability to the transport resource control (TRC)-PE. The PD-PE is required to make policy decisions ba

45、sed on the confirmation result from the TRC-PE. 7.1.1.3 Initial policy decisions The PD-PE makes initial policy decisions for IP flows by the resource initiation request from the SCE based on all information, including: Service information received from the SCE. Transport subscription information fr

46、om the PD-PE. Transport subscription profiles. Service based network policies. Transport resource availability and admission decision information received from the TRC-PE. In order to support the policy decision, the following information shall be contained in the policy decisions. IP media flow des

47、cription The uplink and downlink packet classifiers from the IP addresses and port numbers provided by the SCE shall be derived from the PD-PE. Rec. ITU-T Q.3308.1 (03/2012) 5 Transport subscription information The transport subscription information includes QoS parameter for L2 (layer 2) packet mar

48、king and handling in CGPE-PE (e.g., 802.1p). It can be derived from the network QoS parameters and transport subscription information by the PD-PE. QoS information The QoS information includes QoS class based on the requested service type and bandwidth requirements. The QoS information for IP media

49、flows is extracted from the media profile (e.g., type of service (TOS), traffic class, media priority and bandwidth) received from the SCE. Also, it can be derived from the network QoS parameters and transport subscription information by the PD-PE. A QoS parameter for L2 packet marking and handling can be used in CGPE-PE (e.g., 802.1p). The PD-PE may select the QoS class for the media, and the PD-PE shall use the same QoS class for both links (uplink and downlink) when both di
