ITU-T G.8121/Y.1381 (11/2013) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations s
11、pecialized 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 Recommendations on th
12、em 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 approval of ITU-
13、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 “Administration“ is used
14、 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 compliance with the
15、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 required of a
16、ny 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 Intellectual Prop
17、erty 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 received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implem
18、enters are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database at http:/www.itu.int/ITU-T/ipr/.

25、bes both the functional components and the methodology that should be used in order to describe the multi-protocol label switching transport profile (MPLS-TP) layer network functionality of network elements. It does not describe individual MPLS-TP network equipment. This Recommendation provides a re
26、presentation of MPLS-TP technology which uses the methodologies that have been used for other transport technologies (e.g., synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH), optical transport network (OTN) and Ethernet).2This Recommendation forms part of a suite of Recommendations covering the full functionality
27、 of network equipment. These Recommendations are ITU-T G.806, ITU-T G.798, ITU-T G.783, ITU-T G.705 and ITU-T G.8021. This Recommendation also follows the principles defined in ITU-T G.805. These Recommendations specify a library of basic building blocks and a set of rules by which they may be combi
28、ned in order to describe digital transmission equipment. The library comprises the functional building blocks needed to specify completely the generic functional structure of the MPLS-TP layer network. In order to be compliant with this Recommendation, equipment needs to be describable as an interco
29、nnection of a subset of these functional blocks contained within this Recommendation. The interconnections of these blocks should obey the combination rules given. Not every atomic function defined in this Recommendation is required for every application. Different subsets of atomic functions may be
30、 assembled in different ways according to the combination rules given in this Recommendation to provide a variety of different capabilities. _ 1Cisco Systems has expressed concerns that in the event of a difference between this ITU-T Recommendation and any of the normatively referenced IETF RFCs, in
31、teroperability issues may arise. To prevent interoperability issues, the behaviour defined in the IETF RFCs must be maintained, and any such differences must be resolved in coordination with the IETF in a timely manner. France Telecom Orange has expressed concerns that in the event of a difference b
32、etween this ITU-T Recommendation and any of the normatively referenced IETF RFCs, interoperability issues may arise. To prevent interoperability issues, the behaviour defined in the IETF RFCs must be maintained, and any such differences must be resolved in coordination with the IETF in a timely mann
33、er. Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN) is concerned that, in the event of a difference between this ITU-T Recommendation and any of the IETF RFCs to which it makes normative reference, interoperability issues may arise. This Recommendation contains no guidance on how to resolve such a situation. NSN belie
34、ves that in the case of such an event, differences should be resolved in coordination with the IETF and that the behaviour specified in the RFC(s) must be maintained. Verizon Communications has expressed concerns that in the event of a difference between this ITU-T Recommendation and the behaviour d
35、efined in the normatively referenced IETF RFCs, interoperability issues may arise. There is no guidance in this ITU-T Recommendation that describes how to address differences in behaviour between the Recommendation and the normatively referenced IETF RFCs. Verizon Communications feels that any diffe
36、rence should be resolved in coordination with the IETF in a timely manner and until the issue is resolved, the behaviour defined in the IETF RFCs should be maintained. 2This ITU-T Recommendation is intended to be aligned with the IETF MPLS RFCs normatively referenced by this Recommendation. 2 Rec. I
37、TU-T G.8121/Y.1381 (11/2013) Network operators and equipment suppliers may choose which functions must be implemented for each application. Figure 1 presents the set of atomic functions associated with the traffic signal transport. The functions are based on the functional architecture described in
38、ITU-T G.8110.1. It is noted that this Recommendation only defines Ethernet for the client of MPLS-TP as an MT/ETH adaptation function.
