2、Network-specific data protocol stacks for multimedia conferencing (revised in 1999) Summary ITU-T Recommendation T.123 specifies network-specific aspects of the T.120-series data protocols for multimedia conferencing. The networks currently identified are ISDN, CSDN, PSDN, PSTN, B-ISDN, and LAN. Com
3、munication profiles are specified which provide reliable point-to-point connections between a terminal and a multipoint control unit, between pairs of terminals or between pairs of MCUs. In some cases, a lower protocol layer allows the multiplexing of audio and video signals in addition to data conn
4、ections. In other cases, separate calls, over the same or a different network, may be established to carry audio or video signals. In addition, Annex B specifies a protocol that may be used to negotiate connection services beyond reliable data transfer. This protocol also provides for the use of ali
5、as address lists when making a connection. Alias lists will allow proxy services for T.120 communications to be created and used. This revised version of ITU-T Recommendation T.123 introduces a number of clarifications to the previous version. Source ITU-T Recommendation T.123 was approved on 13 Jan
6、uary 2007 by ITU-T Study Group 16 (2005-2008) under the ITU-T Recommendation A.8 procedure. ii ITU-T Rec. T.123 (01/2007) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Se
7、ctor (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 (WTSA), which meets eve
8、ry 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 fall within ITU-Ts purvie
9、w, 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 Recommendation is volunt
10、ary. 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 such as “must“ and the n
11、egative 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 Recommendation may involve th
12、e 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 approval of this Recommenda
13、tion, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation.

22、cifies network-specific aspects of the T.120 protocol suite in the form of profiles for each network identified. Each profile specifies a set of protocols that extend to layer 4 of the OSI reference model. The rationale for this Recommendation is as follows: audiographic and video conferencing are i
23、ntended to form part of the repertoire of ISDN services. Teleconferencing via ISDN involves the integration of multiple media (audio, video and data) in a connection, which may be the aggregate of a number of physical channels. The provision of these services is not, however, limited to the ISDN, an
24、d a range of other network scenarios is identified. For instance, CSDN may provide a similar, though less flexible, service to that of ISDN, and PSTN may provide a service that, though limited in performance, is more readily available. Teleconferencing may also be extended over PSDN and B-ISDN. LANs
25、 may provide conferencing locally within an enterprise or a means of access to wide area networks. 1.1 Networks identified Network-specific profiles are defined for ISDN, CSDN, PSDN and PSTN, as required by ITU-T F.702. The scope of this Recommendation also includes B-ISDN and LAN. 1.2 Audio and vid
26、eo signals The handling of audio and video signals in a multimedia conference is not part of this Recommendation, other than the possibility of their multiplexed transport over the same connection in some cases. 1.3 ISDN call set-up Examples of ISDN call set-up procedures for the audiographic teleco
27、nference are given in Appendix I. These procedures illustrate: a) the use of ISDN information elements; b) coordination of the D-channel and the B-channel; c) the phases of connection establishment; d) interworking with telephone services. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other r
