9、 Recommendation ITU-T D.50 recognizes the sovereign right of each State to regulate its telecommunications. It recommends that Administrations involved in the provision of international Internet connections negotiate and agree to bilateral commercial arrangements enabling direct international Intern
10、et connections that take into account the possible need for compensation between them for the value of elements such as traffic flow, number of routes, geographical coverage and cost of international transmission amongst others.

ITU-T D.50 (04/2011) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communicatio
12、n 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 worldwide basis. The World
13、 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 Resolution 1. In s
14、ome 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 administration and a recogni
15、zed 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 are met. The wor
16、ds “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 possibility that
17、 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 the Recommendati
18、on 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 information and ar
19、e therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database at http:/www.itu.int/ITU-T/ipr/. ITU 2011 All rights reserved.

21、 World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (Rev. Johannesburg, 2008) recognizing a) both the sovereign right of each State to regulate its telecommunications and the object of facilitating economic and social development by means of efficient telecommunication services, as reflected in the Pr
22、eamble to the Constitution; b) paragraph 50 of the Tunis Agenda; c) that Plenipotentiary Resolution 22 (Rev. Antalya, 2006) on Apportionment of revenues in providing international telecommunication services, in its noting a stipulates that the concept of network externalities may apply to internatio
23、nal traffic between developing and developed countries, noting a) the rapid growth of Internet and Internet protocol-based international services; b) that international Internet connections remain subject to agreements between the parties concerned, which are operating agencies authorized by Member
24、States; and c) that continuing technical and economic developments require ongoing studies in this area, recommends 1 that administrations take appropriate measures nationally to ensure that parties (including operating agencies authorized by Member States) involved in the provision of international
25、 Internet connections negotiate and agree to bilateral commercial arrangements, or other arrangements as agreed between administrations, enabling direct international Internet connections that take into account the possible need for compensation between them for the value of elements such as traffic
26、 flow, number of routes, geographical coverage and cost of international transmission, and the possible application of network externalities, amongst others; 2 that the General Considerations in Appendix I should be used to accelerate the objectives of the Tunis Agenda number 50. 2 Rec. ITU-T D.50 (
27、04/2011) Appendix I General considerations for charging criteria and options for international Internet connectivity (This appendix does not form an integral part of this Recommendation.) I Introduction The following general considerations and criteria for international Internet interconnectivity ai
28、m to assist administrations concerned in their bilateral negotiations as referred to in the main body of Recommendation ITU-T D.50. The material presented here is intended as an illustrative set of considerations that may be taken into account by those administrations who wish to negotiate agreement
29、 covering international connectivity between their respective Internet networks. I.1 Connection criteria Administrations and operating agencies authorized by Member States may agree to interconnect their networks based on charging criteria including, but not restricted to, the extent of network conn
30、ectivity and degree of reachability to Internet end users and websites. The agreed level of traffic exchanged may also be taken into consideration, provided that administrations and operating agencies authorized by Member States may use suitable safeguard agreement to address any concerns that inter
31、national traffic flows are not fraudulently manipulated. Service performance is another factor that may be considered. Administrations and operating agencies authorized by Member States may agree to consider network performance, availability of contact points, trouble reporting, among other consider
32、ations. I.2 Charging options Administrations and operating agencies authorized by Member States may find these charging criteria helpful in establishing the method of charging. Interconnection methods, and therefore charging methods, include peering, transit, hybrid forms of peering or transit, and
33、any arrangement as mutually agreed between them, including indirect interconnection. International peering connections can be arranged on a settlement-free basis as mutually agreed to by the parties. I.3 International link capacity Where one or more international links are required, arrangements for
34、 the international link capacities required and the apportionment of cost for the international link recognize that administrations and operating agencies authorized by Member States bring value to the connectivity agreement. In determining the apportionment of cost, multiple methods of apportionmen
35、t are acceptable, as long as mutually agreed to by administrations and agencies authorized by Member States, including making alternative arrangements.
