7、ndation ITU-T Y.1544 extends the framework of Recommendation ITU-T Y.1540 to the point-to-multipoint, or multicast case. It also expands the key Y.1540 concepts with details needed to define parameters for the point-to-multipoint configuration. The performance of point-to-multipoint packet transfer

8、to a set of destinations can first be considered a set of point-to-point packet transfers, and characterized using any or all of the point-to-point parameters found in Recommendation ITU-T Y.1540. This Recommendation defines parameters that are specific to the point-to-multipoint case. There are thr

9、ee general categories of point-to-multipoint parameters which focus on different entities in this network topology: parameters that describe the Source performance, parameters that describe the performance at one or more Destinations, and parameters that can be applied to describe the performance of

10、 subsections of the multicast tree. In its present version, this Recommendation primarily addresses Destination performance. This Recommendation also specifies a complete set of parameters for the access and disengagement phases of communication. This aspect goes beyond the scope of Recommendation I

11、TU-T Y.1540, which covers only the information transfer phase. Source Recommendation ITU-T Y.1544 was approved on 14 July 2008 by ITU-T Study Group 12 (2005-2008) under Recommendation ITU-T A.8 procedure. ii Rec. ITU-T Y.1544 (07/2008) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the

12、United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information 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 Recom

13、mendations 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

14、approval of 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 “Adminis

15、tration“ is 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 compli

16、ance with the 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

17、 required of 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 Int

18、ellectual Property 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 not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendatio

25、cast IP performance parameters 1 Scope This Recommendation defines parameters that may be used in specifying and assessing the performance of speed, accuracy, dependability, and availability of IP packet transfer of international Internet protocol (IP) data communication services. The parameters app

26、ly to point-to-multipoint IP service and to the network portions that provide, or contribute to the provision of, such service in accordance with the normative references specified in clause 2. In particular, this Recommendation relies on the same layered model and generic performance model defined

27、in ITU-T Y.1540 for point-to-point communication. The scope of this Recommendation extends ITU-T Y.1540 to an area that was left for further study: point-to-multipoint communication. The scope of this Recommendation also includes performance parameters that are relevant to specific multicast protoco

28、ls. The protocols currently covered are versions 2 and 3 of the Internet group management protocol. Inclusion of these protocols expands beyond the scope of ITU-T Y.1540 to cover the access and disengagement communication functions. The operation of multicast routing protocols is evident to users an

29、d their hosts, primarily in terms of the networks ability to deliver packets from sources to destinations. This Recommendation does not specify performance parameters for these protocols. Table 1 illustrates the coverage of this Recommendation, in terms of the 3-by-3 matrix (defined in ITU-T I.350).

31、e parameters (clause 8) As stated above, the topic of availability is also included in the scope of this Recommendation. The reader of this Recommendation should be familiar with the concepts and definitions of ITU-T I.350 and ITU-T Y.1540. The outline of this Recommendation follows the outline of Y

32、.1540 to the extent possible, in order to simplify references and comparisons. Therefore, the unique multicast access and disengagement material appears near the end of the body of this Recommendation. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, th

45、ms: 3.2.2.1 joining or leaving a multicast group: The process to add (or remove) a member from a multicast group. 3.2.2.2 multicast group: A multicast group is a set of hosts that have indicated their intention to receive packets on a specific multicast group address. This set of hosts and their ass

46、ociated egress measurement points provide a key qualification to the point-to-multipoint population of interest. 3.2.2.3 multicast group address: This is a destination address that allows potentially any host to receive packets of this group from a multicasting source host. In IPv4, a multicast grou

47、p address is a special destination address range (224.0.0.0/4), historically known as Class D. The best current practice for IPv4 multicast address assignment may be found in b-IETF RFC 3171. In IPv6, multicast addresses all have the prefix FF00:/8. Address assignments within this range are specifie

48、d in IETF RFC 3513. 3.2.2.4 permissible multicast group egress measurement points: One or more egress measurement points may be designated permissible when the Source to Destination path of at least 4 Rec. ITU-T Y.1544 (07/2008) one member of a multicast group includes that specific egress point, an

49、d the minimum set of egress points to cover all group members are identified. 4 Multipoint considerations for the layered model of performance for IP service The layered model for IP service (clause 4 of ITU-T Y.1540) also applies to the point-to-multipoint case. The only additional performance-related consideration is the reproduction of packets in multicast routers. When required, a multicast router is required to reproduce the packets of a given multicast group, to send them on two or more egress links toward their dest
