8、ATIONAL PACKET-SWITCHED SERVICES Summary This Recommendation provides availability parameters and associated worstzase objectives within the X. 130-Series Recommendations on PSPDN performance. Source ITU-T Recommendation X.137 was revised by ITU-T Study Group 7 (1997-2000) and was approved under the

9、 WTSC Resolution No. 1 procedure on the 9th of August 1997. Recommendation X.137 (08/97) 1 STD-ITU-T RECMN XSL37-ENGL L977 48b257L Ob37745 8T1 FOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommuni- cations. The ITU Telecommunication

10、 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 Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Confe

11、rence (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the IT-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of Recommendations by the Members of the IT-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1. In some area

12、s of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration” is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized oper

13、ating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS The ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. The IT takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intell

14、ectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, the ITU had/had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommen

15、dation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. O ITU 1997 All rights reserved.

20、e 1.1 This Recommendation is the fourth in a series of four Recommendations (X.134 to X.137) that define performance parameters and values for international packet-switched data communication services. Figure 1 illustrates the scope of these four Recommendations and the relationships among them. - R

22、ommendation X. 134 divides a virtual connection into basic sections whose boundaries are associated with X.25 and X.75 interfaces; defines particular collections of basic sections, called virtual connection portions, for which performance values will be specified; and defines a set of Packet-layer r

23、eference Events (PES) which provides a basis for performance parameter definition. The basic sections consist of network sections and circuit sections. They are delimited, in each case, by physical Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) or Data Switching Equipment (DSE) interfaces. Two types of virtual conne

24、ction portions are identified national portions and international portions. Each PE is defined to occur when a packet crossing a section boundary changes the state of the packet layer interface. Terrestrial connection via an access network section. Connection via an access network section with one s

25、atellite circuit; or via an access network section and one or more transit network sections. Connection via a direct terrestrial internetwork section. 1.3 For comparability and completeness, packet-switched network performance is considered in the context of the 3 x 3 performance matrix defined in R

26、ecommendation X.140. Three protocol-independent data communication functions are identified in the matrix: access, user information transfer, and disengagement. These general functions correspond to call Set-up, data (and interrupt) transfer, and call clearing in packet-switched virtual call service

27、s conforming to Recommendations X.25 and X.75. Each function is considered with respect to three general performance concerns (or performance criteria”): speed, accuracy, and dependability. These express, respectively, the delay or rate, degree of correctness, and degree of certainty with which the

28、function is performed. International B 1.4 Recommendation X.135 defines protocol-specific speed of service parameters and values associated with each of the three data communication functions. Recommendation X. 136 defines protocol-specific accuracy and dependability parameters and values associated

29、 with each function. X.135 and X.136 parameters are called “primary parameters” to emphasize their direct derivation from packet layer reference events. Connection via two satellite circuits and one transit network section; or via one satellite circuit and two or more transit network sections. 1.5 A

30、n associated two-state model provides a basis for describing overall service availability. A specified availability function compares the values for a subset of the primary parameters with corresponding outage thresholds to classify the service as ”available” (no service outage) or “unavailable” (se

31、rvice outage) during scheduled service time. This Recommendation specifies the availability function and defines the availability parameters and values that characterize the resulting binary random process. 1.6 Two availability parameters are defined in this Recommendation: service availability and

32、mean time between service outages. Each parameter can be applied to any basic section or portion of a virtual connection. This generality makes the parameters useful in performance allocation and concatenation. 1.7 This Recommendation specifies availability values for national and international port

33、ions of two types (seeTable 1). Performance values for data terminal equipment are not specified, but the parameters defined in this Recommendation may be employed in such specification to assist users in establishing quantitative relationships between network performance and quality of service (see

34、 Recommendation X. 140). Table iX.137 - Virtual connection portion types for which performance values are specifieda) Portion type - Typical characteristics a) The values specified for Type B portions also apply to virtual connection portions not explicitly identified as Type A or Type B. 2 Recommen

35、dation X.137 (08197) STD-ITU-T RECMN X.137-ENGL 1977 4862571 0b37749 q47 1.8 Worst-case values for each of the two availability parameters are specified below for each virtual connection portion type identified in Table 1. The term “worst case” means that these values should be met during any hour o

36、f the day in the worst-performing virtual connection portion used in providing international packet-switched service. The performance of a virtual connection portion may be better than the worst-case values specified in this Recommendation. Design objectives that take into account more demanding use

37、r applications and network performance, and connectivity enhancements are for further study. Numerical methods for combining individual portion performance values to estimate end-to-end performance are also provided in this Recommendation. DTE to DTE values for two particular hypothetical reference

38、connections are derived using these methods in Annex B. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations, and other references contain provisins which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.
