ITU-T X.607.1 (11/2008) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, informatio

9、n and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication 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 worldwid

10、e 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 Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA

11、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 Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administra

12、tion 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 applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions

13、 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 with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the

14、 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 applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of

15、 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 implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest i

ITU-T X.607.1 (11/2008) Introduction This Recommendation | International Standard specifies the Enhanced C

21、ommunications Transport Protocol (ECTP), which is a transport protocol designed to support Internet multicast applications running over multicast-capable networks. ECTP operates over IPv4/IPv6 networks that have the IP multicast forwarding capability with the help of IGMP and IP multicast routing pr

22、otocols, as shown in Figure 1. ECTP could possibly be provisioned over UDP. Figure 1 ECTP Model ECTP is designed to support tightly controlled multicast connections in simplex, duplex and N-plex applications. ECTP part 4 QoS management (this Recommendation | International Standard) specifies the qua

23、lity of service (QoS) management functionality for stable management in the duplex multicast connection. The QoS management functionality consists of QoS negotiation, QoS monitoring and QoS maintenance operations. The procedures of reliability control in duplex connection have been defined in ECTP p

24、art 3 (Recommendation ITU-T X.607 | ISO/IEC 14476-3). In ECTP-3 duplex multicast connection, the participants are classified into one Transport Connection Owner (TC-Owner) and many Transport Services users (TS-users). TC-Owner will be designated among the TS-users before the connection begins. In th

25、e duplex multicast connection, the two types of data transports are supported: multicast data transport from TC-Owner to all the other TS-users and unicast data transport from TS-users to TC-Owner. After the connection is created, TC-Owner can transmit multicast data to the group, whereas each TS-us

26、er is allowed to send unicast data to TC-Owner just after it gets a token from the TC-Owner. For QoS management in the duplex multicast connection, the TC-Owner triggers the connection creation process. Some or all of the enrolled TS-users will participate in the connection and become the designated

27、 “active TS-users“. The TS-users who are active at this stage are able to participate in negotiating the desired QoS level for the session. In the duplex multicast connection, TS-users can send the data to TC-Owner, which each TS-user negotiates with TC-Owner for a QoS parameter for backward unicast

28、 data channel. TC-Owner proposes the target value of QoS parameter for forward multicast data channel and backward unicast data channel. If QoS negotiation is enabled, each TS-user can propose modified values of QoS parameters for forward multicast data channel and backward unicast data channel. TC-

29、Owner arbitrates these modified values of QoS parameters for two types of data transport. These arbitrated values are delivered to TS-users via subsequent Heartbeat (HB) or Join Confirm (JC) packets, and will be used for QoS monitoring and maintenance. Any enrolled TS-user that is not active at this

30、 stage may participate in the connection as a late-joiner, but will have to accept the established QoS level. After the connection is created, TC-Owner begins to transmit multicast data and some of TS-users who get a token from TC-Owner can send unicast data to TC-Owner. While the connection is acti

31、ve, TC-Owner monitors the status of the session via feedback control packets from the active TS-users. TC-Owner may take a range of actions if network problems (such as severe congestion) are indicated by the feedback received from active TS-users. These actions include adjusting the data transmissi

32、on rate, suspending multicast data transmission temporarily, or in the last resort, terminating the connection. ECTP part 4 QoS management Specification can be used by the multicast applications that require supporting various QoS requirements and the corresponding billing/charging models. ISO/IEC 1

45、This Recommendation | International Standard is described based on the concepts and terms developed in the specification of duplex multicast transport on ECTP-3: a) SU (Sending TS-User) Some of the ECTP-3 TS-users can send unicast data to the TC-Owner. A sending TS-user (SU) is a TS-user who gets a

46、token from TC-Owner. Only the SU is allowed to send unicast data to TC-Owner. In other words, before sending unicast data, each user must request a token to TC-Owner. b) Token It represents the rights for a TS-user to transmit data. The TS-user who has a token is called a Sending TS-User (SU). The t

47、okens are managed by TC-Owner. c) Forward data channel It represents the multicast data channel from TC-Owner to the group members. TC-Owner sends multicast data to all the other group members over IP multicast address. d) Backward data channel It represents the unicast data channel, in which the da

48、ta packet flows from an SU to TC-Owner. An SU can send unicast data to TC-Owner over IP unicast address. 4 Abbreviations For the purposes of this Recommendation | International Standard, the following abbreviations apply: 4.1 Packet types ACK Acknowledgment CC Connection Creation Confirm CR Connecti
