I.371 (03/2004) i ITU-T Recommendation I.371 Traffic control and congestion control in B-ISDN Summary This Recommendation addresses functions and parameters for traffic and congestion control in the B-ISDN. A user-network and an inter-network traffic contract are
8、defined in terms of a traffic descriptor that includes traffic parameters and associated tolerances of an ATM layer transfer capability and of quality of service requirements associated to a QoS class. Relevant traffic parameters and generic conformance definitions for these parameters are specified
9、. ATM transfer capabilities that make use of these traffic parameters to allow for different combinations of QoS objectives and multiplexing schemes and specific conformance definitions applying to these ATM transfer capabilities are provided. In addition, traffic control and congestion control func
10、tions are further specified, among which are traffic parameter control functions at user-network and inter-network interfaces. Some specific traffic control interworking configurations are described. Finally, procedures for traffic control, congestion control and resource management are defined. Thi
11、s includes specific formats and information supported by resource management cells. Source ITU-T Recommendation I.371 was approved on 29 March 2004 by ITU-T Study Group 13 (2001-2004) under the ITU-T Recommendation A.8 procedure. ii ITU-T Rec. I.371 (03/2004) FOREWORD The International Telecommunica
12、tion 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 ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a v
13、iew 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-T Recommend
14、ations 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 for concis
15、eness 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 Recommendatio
16、n 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 any party. INT
17、ELLECTUAL 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 Property Rights,
18、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, implementors are ca
19、utioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. ITU 2006 All rights reserved.

33、 describes traffic control and congestion control procedures for the B-ISDN at the ATM layer. ATM layer traffic control refers to all network actions aiming to meet the network performance objectives and negotiated QoS commitments, and to avoid congested conditions. ATM layer congestion control refe
34、rs to all network actions to minimize the intensity, spread and duration of congestion. This Recommendation provides a general description as well as objectives and procedures for traffic control and congestion control. Additionally, it describes the concepts of the traffic contract. It specifies th
35、e ATM transfer capabilities (ATCs) including, for each ATC, the applicable source traffic descriptor, associated tolerances and conformance definition. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provision
