Terms of Reference for TISPAN WG3
(Competence centre protocols definitions)
TISPAN WG3 is responsible for:
-
Defining all aspects of Protocols: protocol definition,
protocol requirements, protocol mapping, protocol profiles, analysis of
protocols developed by other bodies, protocol extensions and inter-working
specifications.
Activities:
-
Adaptation and standardization of end to end
call control protocols and extensions for networks (core and access) and CPE,
including but not limited to: SIP , SIP-T, BICC, PSTN/ISDN etc…
-
Adaptation & standardisation of Resource
Control Protocols for networks (core & access & terminals), including but not
limited to MEGACO / H.248 protocols, etc…
-
Adaptation & standardisation of Bearer Control
Protocols for networks (core & access & terminals), including but not limited to
MPLS, H.245 etc…
- Standardization and inter-working for Service
Control protocols, including but not limited to API specification & API mapping
of Service level APIs for Open Service Access;
-
Standardization of Transfer Mode protocols,
including but not limited to: DTM, etc...
-
Standardization of inter-nodal Transport
protocols and mechanisms for networks (core and access) including:
-
Adaptation
and standardization of reliable signalling transport for signalling, including
but not limited to: SCTP, etc..
-
Standardization
of transport mechanism for the User Plane.
-
Consideration and standardization of the
security aspects relating to the signalling and user plane transport protocols.
-
To consider the impact on protocols:
-
For
NAT (Network Address Translation) and ENUM (Enhancement of Numbering and Naming)
in the
context of network security and the network access from terminals and
firewalls
-
For
network address and naming translation policies
-
For
regulatory requirements (e.g. CLI and emergency services)
-
For
QoS level provisioning and related control protocols
-
Evolution of ISDN/PSTN networks for
interoperability of services for fixed (e.g. ISDN, TIPHON) & mobile networks
(e.g. 3GPP) and the intelligent home networks using common protocols with regard
to call control and the application interfaces.
-
Maintenance of existing protocols developed by TISPAN, TIPHON, SPAN, SPS, NA, BTC, etc including: ISDN network signalling
system No.7 (ISUP, BISUP, MTP, SCCP, S-AAL and OMAP); ISDN access signalling
systems DSS1 and DSS2; ATM; INAP; access signalling configurations V5.1, V5.2
and VB5; MTP, SCCP & Transaction Capabilities;
Collaboration with other bodies (both inside and outside ETSI)
-
Co-operation with ETSI TBs and other standardisation bodies and fora active in
the same and related areas e.g. ITU-T SG9, SG11, SG16, ANSI, IETF, MSG, MSF,
3GPP.
