ITU-T Y.1566 (07/2012) 1 Recommendation ITU-T Y.1566 Quality of service mapping and interconnection between Ethernet, Internet protocol and multiprotocol label switching networks 1 Scope This Recommendation defines a limited set of classes that provide a basis for interworking between

22、the different traffic class aggregates of different service providers, while preserving the original intent of the service (although packet markings might change). The scope includes interworking between layers and between networks using similar technologies. Each QoS class is defined by its qualita

23、tive performance characteristics and the suggested groups of applications whose performance requirements match the characteristics of one or more classes. The limit on the number of classes is imposed by the space available in the widely-used three-bit codepoint space. End-to-end QoS requires a comm

24、on understanding of the QoS class properties in all involved domains. While many similarities are expected between the deployed or planned QoS architectures of different providers, these are often not obvious when starting interconnection negotiations. This specification aims on enabling end-to-end

25、QoS (by preserving the intended service properties) across different packet networks and on simplification of the technical QoS interconnection negotiations between providers. Informational examples in the appendices provide: Codepoint to class association, with an interworking example ITU-T Y.1541

26、QoS class mapping to interworking classes The allocation of numerical performance budgets among interworking networks in the user network interface to user network interface (UNI-UNI) path is out of the scope of this Recommendation. The issue of matching b-3GPP TS 23.203 standardized QoS class ident

27、ifier (QCI) characteristics to interworking classes is for further study. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.

32、associate existing service classes with the Ordinary class set (or Auxiliary class set), and ultimately associate the classes of two different service providers. 3.2.3 remarking: An operation performed to replace the codepoint of an existing service class with the codepoint of the matching class use

36、s. The last aspect is twofold: first, class properties need to match across interconnection boundaries and second, codepoint mapping should be deterministic and non-ambiguous (identical codepoints are not required). The aim of this Recommendation is to simplify the production and negotiation of end-

37、to-end QoS over a chain of retail, wholesale and inter-provider transport products. The Recommendation accomplishes this goal by defining a set of “ordinary“ classes with the capability to support groups of commonplace user applications and/or services (with similar performance needs). This clause R

38、ec. ITU-T Y.1566 (07/2012) 3 briefly introduces existing standards and then proceeds to a proposal of classes, their properties and example uses. Codepoint and mapping proposals may be found in several appendices. On IP and MPLS, IETFs Differentiated Services (Diffserv) architecture b-IETF RFC 2475

39、resulted in first commercial deployments of QoS differentiating IP services. Diffserv tries to respect prior standardization of IP precedence b-IETF RFC 791. Some informative work has been produced suggesting mappings of services to QoS classes and aggregation of IP classes to MPLS classes b-IETF RF

40、C 4594, b-IETF RFC 5127. ITU-T Y.1541 standardizes several generic QoS classes and specifies UNI-to-UNI performance objectives ITU-T I.371. IEEE standardized quality differentiating LAN services with strict priority scheduling, which was picked as a simple solution viable in local networks. While a

41、QoS class concept similar to that of Diffserv was not mandatory within IEEE, an optional specification was provided (see Annex G of b-IEEE 802.1Q). b-MEF 23.1 proposes three service oriented classes including an IP to Ethernet mapping. b-GSMA IR.34 alliance IR.34 proposes four service oriented inter

42、connection IP QoS classes b-GSMA IR.34. b-3GPP TS 23.203 defines nine classes with different properties and example usages. All of these standards have commonalities. But attempting to produce end-to-end QoS by simply combining the available standards is a challenge. QoS schemes independently develo

43、ped by separate providers usually are not identical (although most have many commonalities). The inter-layer QoS mappings to be covered are IP over Ethernet, IP over MPLS, Ethernet over MPLS and Ethernet over IP. These mappings cover the most widespread layer 2 and layer 3 service deployments. In ge

44、neral, codepoints of an interconnecting party whose QoS markings are trusted (i.e., the receiving network providers are sure that a given codepoint identifies a specific class) may only be re-marked, if the class interpretation remains absolutely identical after re-marking. This is required to allow

45、 non ambiguous reversion of the re-marking at other points in a communication path. If this cannot be done, end-to-end QoS with pre-defined performance properties cannot be guaranteed. No suggestions are made here how to remark codepoints of parties to which a provider has no trust relation. In some

46、 cases, the number of classes may differ at an interconnection point. It is then up to the interconnecting parties to agree class mappings and non-revertible re-marking of traffic, if it cannot be avoided. Note that re-marking IP precedence within a DSCP offers limited chances for class transparency

47、, if only a single precedence codepoint is re-marked and an AF class like DSCP differentiation is applied. Any mapping of a QoS traffic to a class with different properties should be revertible by conserving the original codepoint. Tunnelling (and may be header stacking) may be appropriate mechanism

48、s. To simplify mapping of QoS classes, while being aware that neither classes nor codepoints are widely standardized, two tables below introduce lists of class definitions with properties of these classes and some usage examples. Table 5-1 starts with well-defined QoS classes and their properties. I

49、t is expected that support of classes with the properties and usage examples shown in Table 5-1 are a commodity to a majority of carriers and service providers. 4 Rec.
