8、 of ITU-T Recommendations. Rec. ITU-T H.248.18 (03/2013) i Recommendation ITU-T H.248.18 Gateway control protocol: Package for support of multiple profiles Summary Recommendation ITU-T H.248.18 describes a package to enable the media gateway controller (MGC) to determine which profiles are supported
9、 on a media gateway. It also allows the MGC to set the profiles that it shall use. This revision incorporates a correction to the error code number for “Unsupported or Unknown Profile“ to avoid duplication with Recommendation ITU-T H.248.26.

ITU-T H.248.18 (03/2013) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunicat
11、ion 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 Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (
12、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 some areas of information technology which fal
13、l 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 recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Re
14、commendation 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 words “shall“ or some other obligatory language
15、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 the practice or implementation of this Recom
16、mendation 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 Recommendation development process. As of the date of app
17、roval 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 are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB

24、ame: Profile Package Package ID: prp (0x0050) Description: This Recommendation describes a package to enable the media gateway controller to determine what profiles are supported on a media gateway. Profiles are described in ITU-T H.248.1. The property in this package shall only be implemented on th
25、e Root termination. Version: 1 Designed to be extended only: No Extends: None 2 Rec. ITU-T H.248.18 (03/2013) 5.1 Properties 5.1.1 Profiles supported Property name: Profiles Supported Property ID: Prof_supp (0x0001) Description: This property indicates the profile/s and versions supported by the med
26、ia gateway. This property is for the Root termination. Type: sub-list of string (Length 1 67 characters 64 for name, 1 for “/“ and 2 for version) Possible values: As per profile the name and version registered with IANA. The Name shall be encoded first followed by a slash “/“ following by a string e
27、ncoding of the version number. e.g., fred/1 NOTE The name “AuditProfiles“ is reserved for the MG to indicate to the MGC via a ServiceChange that it should audit the MG. The value “AuditProfiles“ shall not be returned when this property is audited. The name “NoProfile“ is reserved to indicate that th
28、e MG or MGC does not support any profiles. Defined in: Termination State Descriptor Characteristics: Read/Write 5.2 Events N/A 5.3 Signals N/A 5.4 Statistics N/A 5.5 Procedures If the MG wants to inform the MGC that it supports multiple profiles, it shall indicate this with ServiceChange Profile = “
29、AuditProfiles“. It may indicate this in an initial ServiceChange or at any time after this. Once the MGC receives ServiceChange Profile = “AuditProfiles“ the MGC should do an Audit Capabilities command on the “Prof_supp“ property of the Root termination. The MG shall then return all profiles that ca
30、n be supported by that MG. Rec.

31、oot,TermStateDes(Prof_supp= koala/1,wombat/2)Figure 1 Example profile determination sequence The MGC may set the Prof_supp property using a Modify command to indicate the profile/s that it will use on the MG. The MGC shall use one or more of the profiles that the MG indicated in an AuditCapability o
32、f the Prof_supp property. If the MGC tries to set the Prof_supp property on the MG to a profile value that is unknown by the MG, at the first unknown profile the MG shall reply with error code 461 “Unsupported or Unknown Profile“. If the Prof_supp property is not set by the MGC then it shall be assu
33、med that the MGC supports all the profiles supported by MG and that the MGC can use functionalities/capabilities of any of the profiles. NOTE This aligns with the ServiceChange procedure where by the MGC may indicate which profile it supports. An Audit value command may be used to determine the prof
34、ile/s that have been set. 5.6 Error codes This package defines a new error code: #:461 Name: Unsupported or Unknown Profile Definition: The Profile Name is not supported by the receiver. The command related to the unknown profile is disregarded. Package: Profile Package prp (0x0050) Reference: H.248
