X.76 Network-to-network interface between public networks providing PVC and/or SVC frame relay data transmission service Summary This Recommendation describes the frame relay network-to-netw

8、ork interface intended for the interconnection of public networks providing PVC and/or SVC frame relay data transmission service. The signalling at the NNI for frame relay SVC is applicable to public data networks supporting ITU-T Rec. X.36 at the DTE/DCE interface. Details of physical layer, data t

9、ransfer and signalling procedures for SVC and PVC at the network-to-network interface are defined. PVC signalling procedures have been enhanced with a new segmentation capability procedure to increase the number of PVC status reports. Recognizing that frame relay bearer services and signalling are n

10、ot supported by ISDN local exchanges, Case B has been removed from ITU-T Rec. Q.933 (2003). Consequently this version of ITU-T Rec. X.76 no longer supports the NNI signalling capabilities specific to ITU-T Rec. Q.933 (1995) Case B. This revision replaces ITU-T Rec. X.76 (2000). This revised ITU-T Re

11、c. X.76 (2003) is in alignment with the latest release of ITU-T Recs Q.933 (2003) and X.36 (2003). Source ITU-T Recommendation X.76 was approved by ITU-T Study Group 17 (2001-2004) under the ITU-T Recommendation A.8 procedure on 13 February 2003. ii ITU-T Rec. X.76 (02/2003) FOREWORD The Internation

12、al 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 questions and issuing Recommendations

13、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 Recommendations on these topics. The approval of

14、 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 Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is

15、 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 applicability) and compliance with t

16、he 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 with the Recommendation is required o

17、f 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 applicability of claimed Intellectual P

18、roperty 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/had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. Howe

27、ervice 1 Scope Recognizing that public networks are offering the frame relay data transmission service, there is a need for a standard network-to-network interface to enable interworking.

28、and SVC operation are provided. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provision of this Recommendation.

47、in accordance with ITU-T Rec. G.703. When used, the frame structure conforms to ITU-T Rec. G.704. In the case of 2 Mbit/s, time slot 0 is used to perform fault detection (see ITU-T Rec. G.732). Time slot 16 may either be used or not used, resulting in an access rate of 1984 kbit/s or 1920 kbit/s res
