10、d networks Summary This Recommendation lays down a framework for supporting and defining the role of network management in IP-based telecommunications networks. IP-based networks generally make use of various telecommunications technologies that support a range of multimedia services such as voice,
11、data, still image and video. Such IP-based networks are referred to here as converged networks. Network Management (NM) goals, principles and functions that are intended for use with IP-based equipment are defined. The major part of this Recommendation suggests ways to monitor traffic and provides s
12、ome indication of parameters for promptly detecting abnormal network traffic conditions. After detection of an abnormal condition, automatic and possibly manual controls must be temporarily applied to the network to alleviate the problem until it is resolved. It is also necessary to frequently check
13、 the performance of the network after applying the NM controls to note whether the control is mitigating the problem and to determine when to modify or remove it from the network.

E.417 (02/2005) FOREWORD The International 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
15、 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 every four years, establishes the topic
16、s 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 purview, the necessary standards are prepa
17、red 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 voluntary. However, the Recommendation may
18、 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 words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to expr
19、ess 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 the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Prop
20、erty 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 Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of
21、 intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. ITU 2005 All rights reserved. No part of t

25、ded to support and define the role of network management in IP-based telecommunications networks. IP-based networks generally make use of various telecommunications technologies that support a range of multimedia services such as voice, data, still image and video. In this Recommendation, such IP-ba
26、sed networks are referred to as converged networks. Addressed here are the Network Management (NM) goals, principles and functions intended for use with IP-based equipment operating in such converged networks or in dedicated IP networks. This Recommendation lays down a framework for IP network manag
27、ement. It shall, however, be enhanced as the research in the field of IP network management is progressed. The major part of this Recommendation suggests ways to monitor traffic and provides some indication of parameters for promptly detecting abnormal network traffic conditions. After detection of
28、an abnormal condition, automatic and possibly manual controls must be temporarily applied to the network to alleviate the problem until it is resolved. It is also necessary to frequently check the effects of the NM controls to note whether the control is mitigating the problem and to determine when
29、to modify or remove it from the network. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.

37、A Framework for QoS-based Routing in the Internet. 3 Definitions This Recommendation defines the following terms: 3.1 call: An association between two or more users or between a user and a network entity within a telecommunications network for the purpose of exchanging information. The call begins w
38、ith the call set-up procedure and ends with the call termination procedure. 3.2 class of service: Any of the network-oriented designations or features that can distinguish between various services, or application-layer uses, of lower-layer telecommunications capabilities for the purpose of more effe
39、ctively accommodating the specialized network performance needs of specific services. 3.3 connection-oriented: Connection-oriented refers to the transfer of information between two entities by first establishing a path (or connection) for the information transfer. The communication proceeds through
40、three well-defined phases: connection establishment, information transfer, and connection release. The most common example of connection-oriented information transfer is a telephone call over a circuit-switched network. Other examples of connection-oriented information exchange are networks based on
41、 ITU-T Rec. X.25, Frame Relay (FR), Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). 3.4 connectionless: Connectionless refers to the transfer of information between two entities without first establishing a path (or connection) for the information transfer. Examples of conn
42、ectionless transport include the Internet Protocol (IP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP). 3.5 converged network: IP-based networks that generally make use of various telecommunications technologies to support a range of multimedia services such as voice, data, still image and video. 3.6 gateway: A n
43、etwork element that enables real-time communication between other network elements and/or customer premises equipments (CPE) that have dissimilar protocols. This includes supporting voice communication between terminals on a packet network, e.g., IP network, and terminals on a circuit-switched netwo
44、rk. 3.7 link: A point-to-point (physical or virtual) connection used for transporting information between two nodes. A link could, for example, be a leased line, or it could be implemented as a logical connection over an Ethernet, a frame relay network, an ATM network, or any other network technolog
45、y that functions below the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model. 3.8 multimedia service: A telecommunications service that supports the simultaneous use of multiple media types (e.g., voice, data, video). ITU-T Rec. E.417 (02/2005) 3 3.9 network performance: The performance
46、of a portion of a telecommunications network that is measured between a pair of network-user or network-network interfaces using objectively defined and observed performance parameters. 3.10 quality of service (QoS): QoS is defined in ITU-T Rec. E.800 as “collective effect of service performance, wh
47、ich determine the degree of satisfaction of a user of the service“. 3.11 router: In the broadest sense, any communications equipment that forwards information on a connectionless basis. Typically, routers are special purpose computers, which operate at Layer 3 of the OSI reference model and forward
48、information based on a Layer 3 address which has network-wide significance. For example, Internet routers forward IP packets based on their destination addresses. Routers operate without using connections, as opposed to switches which do establish connections. 3.12 switch: A switch is a device that
49、dynamically interconnects physical or virtual links to form a connection for information transfer. 3.13 virtual connection: A type of connection used for packet data transfer in which apparent connections are established through appropriate correlation of link-layer addresses. 4 Abbreviations This Recommendation uses the following abbreviations: APS Automatic Protection Switching ATM Asynchronous Transfer Mode B-ISDN Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network CPE Customer Premises Equipment FR Frame Relay IETF
