ITU-T Y.2122 (06/2009) i Recommendation ITU-T Y.2122 Flow aggregate information exchange functions in NGN Summary Recommendation ITU-T Y.2122 specifies the requirements and architecture for flow aggregate information exchange functions (FIXF). FIXF allows network domains to exchange flow aggrega
8、te information that reflects the current network conditions. In order to guarantee end-to-end QoS in NGN, cooperation among networks in an end-to-end path is necessary. Exchange of network configuration information is a key component of cooperation among participating networks. Flow aggregation has
9、been considered a scalable technique for traffic management. Additional information obtained through FIXF can improve the accuracy of performance estimation and effectiveness of resource management.

The ITU Telecommunication Standardization
11、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 worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets e
12、very 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 Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purv
13、iew, 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 administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is volu

ITU-T Y.2122 (06/2009) v Introduction This Recommendation specifies the requirements and architecture for flow aggregate information exchange functions (FIXF). It addresses the flow or flow aggregate (FA) performance prediction by way of exchanging the netwo
28、rk operating parameters or unique parameters of flow aggregates. There are a few critical parameters (e.g., number of hops, link capacity, etc.) for the performance of a flow for a given QoS architecture, which are sometimes tuned dynamically (from time-to-time, from flow-to-flow) within a network.
29、By having the other networks parameters for the flow (or for the flow aggregate to which the flow belongs), one can infer the performance of the flow in these networks and in its own network. The estimation can be complemented by measurement, i.e., the estimation rules can be further adjusted by the
30、 measured performances. Consider the following example: A delay bound for an expedited forwarding (EF) flow in a differentiated services (DiffServ) network can be calculated by using parameters given from neighbouring networks. The initial delay estimation rule can be just to adopt the delay bound o
31、btained from the calculation. The bound, however, can be too conservative, compared to the measured delay, especially when the maximum burst sizes of flows in the same class are large. Then one can adjust the estimation rule to reduce the expected delay value under condition that the maximum burst s
32、izes are large. One obvious benefit of this approach is that upon a flow admission request, network operators can immediately decide whether the requested end-to-end performances can be met, based on the estimation rules that have been adjusted and stabilized. The frequency of the exchange, estimati
33、on, comparison, and adjustment can vary according to implementation. The frequency of exchange for a given flow aggregate, for example, depends on the parameter value precision, flow granularity, intended level of accuracy, etc. The overall process for the performance estimation is depicted in Figur

35、oS architecture. For example, in the DiffServ b-IETF RFC 2475 architecture (or 802.1Q, 802.11e-type networks) the important parameters include the behaviour aggregate (BA) to which a packet belongs, and the bandwidth utilization of the BA based on the implied admission policy (e.g., not more than 10
36、% for EF BA). In another example, the flow aggregation granularity and the number of hops in an aggregation region, in case of a flow-based network such as flow state aware network b-ITU-T Y.2121, are the important parameters. vi Rec.

39、 the NGN management functions. The goal of the functions is to provide additional information to improve the accuracy of the admission decision. The FIXF collects the FA configuration information throughout the networks. The collected information can be used for estimating the end-to-end QoS, thus p
40、ossible applications of this function can be the resource and admission control functions (RACF) or other management functions that handle end-to-end QoS. Rec. ITU-T Y.2122 (06/2009) 1 Recommendation ITU-T Y.2122 Flow aggregate information exchange functions in NGN 1 Scope This Recommendation define
41、s the network operating parameters of a flow aggregate (FA) to be exchanged among different network domains for various types of FAs in NGN, and defines the architecture for exchanging these parameters. It also defines, for informational purposes, the mapping of the transport technology specific par
42、ameters to the defined network operating parameters. The details of the protocols are for further study and are out of the scope of this Recommendation. Usage examples of the exchanged operating parameters are shown in several appendices. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other re

46、gregation end point: The node where a flow aggregate is de-aggregated. Aggregate start and end points for a flow aggregate can collocate in the same node. 3.2 aggregation region: A set of neighbouring nodes within which every flow maintains its membership of a flow aggregate unaltered. For example,
47、in a DiffServ network, the aggregation region is usually limited to a single node, since at the very next node the membership within a behaviour aggregate is likely to be changed. An aggregation region is defined per flow aggregate. Typically, a node can belong to multiple aggregation regions at the
48、 same time. 3.3 aggregation start point: The node where flows are aggregated to form a flow aggregate. 3.4 flow: A set of IP packets that have the same IP 5-tuple in case of IPv4 packets, or have the same flow label in case of IPv6 packets. 3.5 flow aggregate: A set of flows treated in the same way
49、in terms of scheduling. 3.6 flow aggregate membership: The flows within the flow aggregate. The membership can be identified by the set of flow IDs within the flow aggregate. A given flow at a given node cannot be a member of different flow aggregates at the same time. 3.7 flow aggregate table: A set of flow aggregate table entries. 2 Rec. ITU-T Y.2122 (06/2009) 3.8 flow aggregate table entry: A set of information for a flow aggregate including flow aggregate specific configuration parameters. A flow aggregate table entry is
