9、 guidelines on the use of the international emergency preference scheme (IEPS) call indicator and priority indicator in ITU-T H.248 profiles for ITU-T H.323 and NGN systems. These guidelines may be used by other standards development organizations (SDOs) when defining their profiles in support of pr
10、iority services, e.g., the emergency telecommunications service (ETS) and the multimedia priority service (MPS). History Edition Recommendation Approval Study Group 1.0 ITU-T H.248.81 2011-05-14 16 ii Rec. ITU-T H.248.81 (05/2011) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the Unite
11、d Nations specialized 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 Recommenda
12、tions 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 topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The appro
13、val 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 prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administrati
14、on“ 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 contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and complianc
15、e 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 express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is re
16、quired 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 Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intell
17、ectual 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 intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation.

ITU-T H.248.81 (05/2011) 1 Recommendation ITU-T H.248.81 Gateway control protocol: Guidelines on the use of the international emergency preference scheme (
24、IEPS) call indicator and priority indicator in ITU-T H.248 profiles 1 Scope ITU-T H.248.1 defines the international emergency preference scheme (IEPS) call indicator and priority indicator in support of priority services, e.g., the emergency telecommunications service (ETS) and the multimedia priori
25、ty service (MPS). Use of the IEPS call indicator and priority indicator, as defined in ITU-T H.248.1, satisfies the ETS requirements of indicating an ETS context and carrying the priority level. Any prioritization of ITU-T H.248 procedures in the media gateway controller (MGC) and the transport of I
26、TU-T H.248 control signalling towards the media gateway (MG) is based on the identification of ETS. The IEPS call indicator, identifying an ETS call/session, indicates to the MG that the context is an ETS context and enables prioritization of ITU-T H.248 control signalling once received. In addition
27、, it enables prioritized resource allocation in the MG for an ETS context. The priority indicator, carrying the priority level, provides the MG with a means to distinguish different priority handling of resources on the MG when ETS is used. This Recommendation provides guidelines on the use of the I
28、EPS call indicator and priority indicator in ITU-T H.248 profiles for ITU-T H.323 and NGN systems. These guidelines may be used by other standards development organizations (SDOs) when defining their ITU-T H.248.1 profiles in support of priority services (e.g., ETS and the MPS). Further details on h
29、ow these guidelines are used by other networks are outside the scope of this Recommendation. It is up to other SDOs to decide their use when defining their profiles. ETS and IEPS are defined in ITU-T E.107 and ITU-T E.106, respectively. ETS and IEPS involve authority-to-authority communication. The
30、emergency indicator, as defined in ITU-T H.248.1, is used for identification of emergency calls (i.e., individual-to-authority communication). The IEPS call indicator is used for the identification of a priority call/session (e.g., ETS call/session, IEPS call/session), allowing differentiation from
31、an emergency call/session. The specification of profile procedures for the emergency indicator is outside the scope of this Recommendation. National regulators may implement ETS in various ways. This Recommendation describes an implementation where the IEPS call indicator and priority indicator are
32、supported. NOTE 1 National, regional or local emergency and public safety services, where an individual from the general public is seeking assistance (i.e., individual-to-authority communication), are outside the scope of this Recommendation. NOTE 2 b-ITU-T Q-Sup.53 provides the signalling requireme
33、nts to support the IEPS. It is also applicable for ITU-T H.248 entities, but does not indicate any requirement in addition to clause 7. NOTE 3 b-ITU-T Q-Sup.57 provides the signalling requirements to support the ETS in IP networks. It is also applicable for ITU-T H.248 entities, but does not indicat
34、e any requirement in addition to clause 7. 2 Rec.
