Digital Broadband Cable Access to the Public Telecommunications Network; IP Multimedia Time Critical Services; Part 13: Trunking Gateway Control Protocol; Sub-part 1: H.248 option

Produce a TS defining a profile of H.248 protocol for controlling media gateways between cable networks and the PSTN. This profile may need H.248 packages that are not currently available. Definition of such packages is also part of the work item. This activity should result in a single standard for European use taken into account DTS/AT-020020-13 and DES/AT-022212-13.

Foreword
This Technical Specification (TS) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Services and Protocols for
Advanced Networks (SPAN).
The present document is part 13, sub-part 1 of a multi-part deliverable. Full details of the entire series can be found in
part 1 [12].
Introduction
The present document defines a solution based on H.248. The solution based on MGCP is defined in
TS 101 909-13-2 [13].
Where alternative solutions for the same interface are being considered, interoperability issues between the various
IPCablecom system components need to be addressed.

4 Architectural assumptions
The present document applies to the interface between a Media Gateway Controller and a Media Gateway sitting at the
boundary between a packet cable network and the PSTN.
The overall architecture for interconnecting packet cable networks with the PSTN is described in TS 101 909-2 [2].
5 Profile definition
This profile shall be entitled "TGCP". The version number shall be 1.0. This name shall be returned by conforming
gateways when sending a ServiceChange command as part of the initial registration of the MG.

The following optional packages shall be supported under the specified conditions:
Table 3: Conditional packages
Package Name Condition (e.g. trunk type supported)
Modem Some of the codec supported by the cable networks are not
transparent to modem signals.
FaxModem Some of the codec supported by the cable networks are not
transparent to modem signals.
Fax Some of the codec supported by the cable networks are not
transparent to modem signals.
Security The RTP/RTCP services defined in TS 101 909-11 [4] are
supported.
NOTE: A list of permissible ciphersuites are specified in the IPCablecom Security Specification
TS 101 909-11 [4].

5.2 Compatibility rules
This profile is based on ITU-T Recommendation H.248 [1] version 1 (06/00). The compatibility rules for packages,
signals, events, properties and statistics and the H.248 protocol are defined in ITU-T Recommendation H.248 [1].
5.3 Naming conventions
5.3.1 MG and MGC names
MG and MGC names shall be in the form of a domain name. An example MGC name is: mgc1.whatever.net
Reliability is provided by the following precautions:
• MGs and MGCs are identified by their domain name, not their network addresses. Several addresses can be
associated with a domain name. If a command cannot be forwarded to one of the network addresses,
implementations shall retry the transmission using another address.
• MGs and MGCs may move to another platform. The association between a logical name (domain name) and the
actual platform are kept in the Domain Name Service (DNS). MG and MGC shall keep track of the record's
time-to-live read from the DNS. They shall query the DNS to refresh the information if the time-to-live has
expired.
