Several of us have coauthored a Best Common Practices ID on configuring a single domain, IP bridging, topology to support Emergency Telecommunications Service.

This ID has been published as an Internet draft
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-mcgregor-ieprep-bridging-bcp-00.txt

We are looking forward to feedback.

The following is the abstract from the ID:

RECOMMENDED best current practices in applying existing 
protocols for operational implementation of an Emergency 
Telecommunications Service (ETS) in a single-domain IP Bridging 
topology are to use a) Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) 
Priority header value of "emergency", b) Session Description 
Protocol (SDP) attribute experimental parameters to designate 
the call (session) as either a National Emergency call, 
International Emergency call, or both, c) MEGACO context 
descriptors of priorities 0-4 and emergency indication, and 
d) Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) with Exp-Inferred Label 
Switched Paths (E-LSPs) having a dedicated codepoint specifying 
application of ETS Per-Hop Behavior (PHB), where ETS PHB is 
technically specified the same as EF PHB, but with different 
parameter values and associated with an ETS-specific MPLS 
Differentiated Service.  RECOMMENDED best current practices include IP 
Differentiated Services marking using specified codepoints allocated 
from the Experimental and Local Use pool (pool 2) to designate the 
traffic as either National Emergency or International Emergency for 
corresponding ETS PHB use, and signaling between the Signaling Gateway 
(SG) and Media Gateway Controller (MGC) using the MTP3 SS7 protocol 
over the M2UA adaptation protocol with the Stream Control Transmission 
Protocol (SCTP).  Support is suggested for work in progress on 
defining a SIP Resource-Priority header and defining a SIP telephone 
URI extension for calling party category designation.

Since the deadline for submission  of Internet Drafts, we have made several enhancements and clarifications.  We have posted a new version at
https://gets-ic-pmo.is.dyncorp.com/IETF/Documents.htm

Thanks for the heads-up. :-)

A BCP document ought to represent actual currently deployed practice and
what the community believes to be the best practice at the time the 
document
is published.

Readers probably should consider whether those two properties hold
for the contents of the above document when reviewing the document.

Several of us have coauthored a Best Common Practices ID on configuring a
single domain, IP bridging, topology to support Emergency Telecommunications
Service.

This ID has been published as an Internet draft
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-mcgregor-ieprep-bridging-bcp-00.tx
t

Since the deadline for submission  of Internet Drafts, we have made several
enhancements and clarifications.  We have posted a new version at
https://gets-ic-pmo.is.dyncorp.com/IETF/Documents.htm 


The following is the abstract from the ID:

RECOMMENDED best current practices in applying existing 
protocols for operational implementation of an Emergency 
Telecommunications Service (ETS) in a single-domain IP Bridging 
topology are to use a) Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) 
Priority header value of "emergency", b) Session Description 
Protocol (SDP) attribute experimental parameters to designate 
the call (session) as either a National Emergency call, 
International Emergency call, or both, c) MEGACO context 
descriptors of priorities 0-4 and emergency indication, and 
d) Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) with Exp-Inferred Label 
Switched Paths (E-LSPs) having a dedicated codepoint specifying 
application of ETS Per-Hop Behavior (PHB), where ETS PHB is 
technically specified the same as EF PHB, but with different 
parameter values and associated with an ETS-specific MPLS 
Differentiated Service.  RECOMMENDED best current practices include IP 
Differentiated Services marking using specified codepoints allocated 
from the Experimental and Local Use pool (pool 2) to designate the 
traffic as either National Emergency or International Emergency for 
corresponding ETS PHB use, and signaling between the Signaling Gateway 
(SG) and Media Gateway Controller (MGC) using the MTP3 SS7 protocol 
over the M2UA adaptation protocol with the Stream Control Transmission 
Protocol (SCTP).  Support is suggested for work in progress on 
defining a SIP Resource-Priority header and defining a SIP telephone 
URI extension for calling party category designation.

Comments on draft-mcgregor-ieprep-ip-bridging-bcp-00a

The draft talks of assigning 2 DiffServ Codepoints (for national and 
international) and that both are "functionally specified as the EF PHB, but have ETS 
parameter settings". Is there any additional idea of what these parameter 
settings could be?

This sounds sort of like what has been described in 
draft-silverman-diffserv-mlefphb-01 which defines a scheme for multiple code points pointing to one EF 
queue but with different thresholds for dropping in case of queue overflow. I 
believe that Silverman's draft would cover what you need. This is an MLEF PHB, 
but one of its applications could be for ETS. ETS sounds like a good example 
to put in the Annex of Silverman's draft.

Ran,

Understand you comment, and we recognize that there is one case in the ID
where we are not using existing protocols, viz., the Resource Priority
Header.  But, we looked at the ieprep charter statements and thought they
supported that approach, at least partially:

	The working group will develop a BCP RFC or set of RFCs, regarding
	operational implementation of services for Emergency Preparedness
using
	existing Internet protocols. The RFC may include identification of
gaps
	in existing protocols and requirements for use in new protocol or
	protocol feature design. It is out of scope for this working group
to
	do protocol or protocol feature development. 

	Deliverables

	Best Current Practice:
 	 IETF Recommendations for the Emergency Telecommunications Service
 	 using existing protocols - what can be done with existing protocols
 	 and what can not be done.

I.e., the reference to the RPH is covered, at least in part, by the gap
analysis "what can not be done" component of the charter.  To the extent
that it is not, it seems that the right approach is to assume that the RPH
ID will be acted upon and become an RFC before the ieprep BCP is finalized.
If this doesn't happen, of course we would have to revise the BCP draft.

Thanks for the heads-up. :-)

A BCP document ought to represent actual currently deployed practice and
what the community believes to be the best practice at the time the 
document

Fairly clearly, with brand new normative text within this document directed 
at several different WGs and Protocols.... I don't believe the document 
satisfies the guidance of creating a BCP.

If each of these sections of normative text were discussed and reviewed by 
the appropriate WGs (in a Standards Track document or documents per), then, 
perhaps, this document might be more appropriate as an architecture type 
doc....

Bottom line, I don't believe IEPREP can dictate extensions to existing 
protocols. Our AD was clear on this in the recent past. IEPREP can create 
requirements documents directed at other WGs for those WGs to then decide 
on whether to do work on that 'called-for' extension.

As a side comment, there are several new normative topics brought up here 
without any requirements being generated or discussion within this WG (SDP 
to name one).

Dennis - I believe you might have this backwards (maybe). The R-P header 
has had a requirements ID generated (and RFCd) by IEPREP (3487), and it is 
now properly being worked on by its existing Protocol WG (SIP). I don't see 
the same efforts (requirements IDs) for the other protocols mentioned 
within your ID (SDP, Diffserv, MPLS, MEGACO, etc) that (I believe) must go 
through the same process as the R-P header did (as painful as that was/is - 
hopefully R-P blazed a trail that others will find easier....).

I believe this includes all existing extensions to existing protocols - 
which might be part of a discrepancy with your ID, because yours calls for 
many new extensions that each protocol's WGs haven't properly discussed 
(nor have many of these been discussed in IEPREP - SDP being the best 
example of one that hasn't been mentioned before).

I'd say that the R-P header is 'the one' mentioned within your ID that 
*has* been discussed within its appropriate WG, and SIP is close to working 
out the final details of it now. None of the other extensions called for in 
this new ID have been discussed on any other mailing list or in the WG 
meetings that I know of in the last 4 years.

What this ID calls for should be the results of much discussion and one or 
more requirements IDs calling for these extensions to occur with proper 
justification of usage and perhaps why existing mechanisms in each protocol 
can't solve what you want.

As an example of what I mentioned above, where exists a similar 
requirements ID and Standards Track mechanism ID for what you want in/for 
SDP? Or Diffserv (? Or MEGACO?

I believe each doc is required per protocol, per mechanism (meaning there 
could be multiple docs written within one or each WG to solve what you/we 
need).

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Internet Emergency Preparedness Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Reflexive DSCP Policy
	Author(s)	: R. Atarashi, F. Baker
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ieprep-reflexive-dscp-02.txt
	Pages		: 10
	Date		: 2003-7-2
	
In reviewing the specific use of the Differentiated Services
Architecture for supporting the Internet Emergency Preparedness
System, we found what we believe is a general issue.  This is that
even though a client or peer can connect to a server or peer with a
predictable DSCP value, the response does not have a predictable DSCP
value.  We consider the issues, and recommend an approach to
application policy regarding the DSCP.

Ran, James,

In our ID, we have tried to separate "RECOMMENDED" practices from
"suggested" work items for the IEPREP WG.   As noted below, all the
"RECOMMENDED" practices (we believe) have been checked for feasibility with
existing protocols without protocol extensions, and can be applied via local
administration.  The "RECOMMENDED" practices do include specifics for such
local administration, but we understand this is consistent both with BCP
intent and with the needs of our ETS service providers.  We recognize that
use of local and experimental values limits the implementation to a single
domain; however, the scope of the ID is just a single domain, which is the
scope of our discussions with the service providers.
Where we have seen protocol gaps, we have "suggested" (the flag word versus
"RECOMMENDED" for actual BCP recommendations) IEPREP initiatives to address,
and probably should be more explicit in characterizing such initiatives as
efforts to develop Requirements that can then be used as input to the
appropriate protocol WG.  

On a more detailed level, our "RECOMMENDED" practices and why we consider
them within scope are noted below:

1.  ETS call signaling should use the basic signaling protocol stack assumed
for the reference topology (Conventional SS7 [SS7] from AT to STP to SG and
SS7 over IP using M2UA [M2UA] over SCTP [SCTP] between the SG and MGC.) 
*  This recommends the use of specific existing protocols for carrying SS7
over IP, and so clearly meets the BCP scope of specifying what can be done
with existing protocols.

2.  There should be direct mapping of the CSN (international and / or
national) ETS call marking(s) and associated SS7 congestion priorities.
*  Recommends that two specific parameters of interest to ETS should be
mapped ("preserved" probably would have been a better choice of words) at a
signaling gateway. I.e., the SG should function just like an STP and send
out only what it receives without modifying the input.

3.  For an ETS call the same mapping and translation should be applied to
the call setup IAM being sent from the IP network to the CSN upon egress as
was applied to the IAM sent from the CSN to the IP network upon ingress,
e.g., in the U.S.A. the NSEP codepoint in the Calling Party Category (CPC)
and, if present, the optional Precedence parameter.
*  Recommends that the mapping and translation function - as specified for
the ETS parameters of interest in (2) - at ingress and egress to the
signaling gateway be symmetrical, i.e., that the network should be
transparent.

4.  The MPT3 congestion priority of the received IAM be propagated unchanged
in the outgoing IAM, (e.g., in the U.S., IAMs with NSEP set have a
congestion priority of one whereas all other IAMs have a lower congestion
priority of zero).
*  Specifically, recommends that the congestion priority of the IAM at
ingress not be changed at egress.

5.  Assign two values from the experimental and local use pool of Diffserv
codepoints to designate and differentiate International ETS and National
ETS. 
*  Our understanding is that the use of experimental and locally
administrable items within a single domain is a practice, not a protocol
extension.

6.  Correlate the two Diffserv codepoints with a PHB constructed by
"copying" the EF PHB, but perhaps changing some parameter values.
*  Our understanding is that defining a PHB for a Diffserv local and
experimental codepoint is matter of practice.

7.  Use the following specific experimental and local pool Diffserv
codepoints: assignments: National Emergency = 011111, International
Emergency = 011011
*  This recommendation just calls out specific values for convenience in
order to coordinate usage of the Diffserv values from this pool.

8.  Separate ETS traffic treatment, both signaling and data, from other
traffic treatment by the use of a dedicated MPLS Diff-serv codepoint in
E-LSPs
*  We understand that MPLS codepoints and E-LSPs are matters of local
administration.  We intend to clarify this recommendation to specify that
one of the two unused MPLS Diffserv codepoints should be used (specifically
6, since we understand that common practice is to use 7 for network
management).  Based upon the current practice of using 7 for network
management, we conclude that we are able to recommend the practice of using
6 for ETS within a single administrative domain. 

9.  Associate the Diffserv PHB with the MPLS Diffserv codepoint as is used
for Diffserv in general.
*  Again, if we can define the MPLS Diffserv codepoint at a matter of
practice, it would seem that we can also define its PBH as a matter of
practice.

10.  ETS calls should be specified by use of the SIP Priority header with a
designation of "emergency".  
*  We are not recommending changing the use of this field for notifying the
user.  We're just saying, for ETS calls, use it for its intended purpose.

11.  Use SDP attribute parameters to specify ETS sessions as either National
Emergency sessions using the attribute parameter value "x-NatETS" (where the
leading "x" is understood to be customary to designate non-standard values)
or International Emergency sessions using the attribute parameter value
"x-IntETS". 
*  Since we are recommending locally administrable values, we understand
this to be a matter of practice for a single administrable domain, rather
than protocol extension. 

12.  Use the MEGACO ContextRequest parameter for "emergency" (Boolean) to
indicate "emergency" and the MEGACO ContextRequest parameter for "priority"
with priorities 0-4.  
*  Our understanding here is that these parameters are already defined and
their use is a matter of local practice.  

Note that we do not include the SIP RPH in any of our recommendations.  We
recognize that the SIP section is there for information and that the ETS
namespace position needs to be officially pursued as a separate effort.

We are at the stage of discussions with vendors and carriers that requires
real (and preferably official) guidance on how we would like them to address
our ETS needs in their new IP deployments.  We understand a BCP carries with
it the endorsement of the IETF, and although it is not a standard, it has a
lot more weight than other non-standard RFCs.  We recognize that some could
raise the question of whether or not the IETF should advocate a practice
without a firm experiential base for knowing if it is the best (or even a
good) practice.  Our view, at least at the moment, is that an expert view of
what seems to be a "best practice in the absence of experience" is still a
lot better in meeting our needs than no view at all.

Would appreciate your specific feedback, specifically on our views of how
the ID's recommendations are in scope for a BCP.

Dennis, Janet, Pat, Kacz

Dennis - I believe you might have this backwards (maybe). The R-P header 
has had a requirements ID generated (and RFCd) by IEPREP (3487), and it is 
now properly being worked on by its existing Protocol WG (SIP). I don't see 
the same efforts (requirements IDs) for the other protocols mentioned 
within your ID (SDP, Diffserv, MPLS, MEGACO, etc) that (I believe) must go 
through the same process as the R-P header did (as painful as that was/is - 
hopefully R-P blazed a trail that others will find easier....).

I believe this includes all existing extensions to existing protocols - 
which might be part of a discrepancy with your ID, because yours calls for 
many new extensions that each protocol's WGs haven't properly discussed 
(nor have many of these been discussed in IEPREP - SDP being the best 
example of one that hasn't been mentioned before).

I'd say that the R-P header is 'the one' mentioned within your ID that 
*has* been discussed within its appropriate WG, and SIP is close to working 
out the final details of it now. None of the other extensions called for in 
this new ID have been discussed on any other mailing list or in the WG 
meetings that I know of in the last 4 years.

What this ID calls for should be the results of much discussion and one or 
more requirements IDs calling for these extensions to occur with proper 
justification of usage and perhaps why existing mechanisms in each protocol 
can't solve what you want.

As an example of what I mentioned above, where exists a similar 
requirements ID and Standards Track mechanism ID for what you want in/for 
SDP? Or Diffserv (? Or MEGACO?

I believe each doc is required per protocol, per mechanism (meaning there 
could be multiple docs written within one or each WG to solve what you/we 
need).

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Ran, James,</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>In our ID, we have tried to separate "RECOMMENDED" =
practices from "suggested" work items for the IEPREP WG.&nbsp;&nbsp; As =
noted below, all the "RECOMMENDED" practices (we believe) have been =
checked for feasibility with existing protocols without protocol =
extensions, and can be applied via local administration.&nbsp; The =
"RECOMMENDED" practices do include specifics for such local =
administration, but we understand this is consistent both with BCP =
intent and with the needs of our ETS service providers.&nbsp; We =
recognize that use of local and experimental values limits the =
implementation to a single domain; however, the scope of the ID is just =
a single domain, which is the scope of our discussions with the service =
providers.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Where we have seen protocol gaps, we have "suggested" =
(the flag word versus "RECOMMENDED" for actual BCP recommendations) =
IEPREP initiatives to address, and probably should be more explicit in =
characterizing such initiatives as efforts to develop Requirements that =
can then be used as input to the appropriate protocol WG.&nbsp; =
</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>On a more detailed level, our "RECOMMENDED" practices =
and why we consider them within scope are noted below:</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>1.&nbsp; ETS call signaling should use the basic =
signaling protocol stack assumed for the reference topology =
(Conventional SS7 [SS7] from AT to STP to SG and SS7 over IP using M2UA =
[M2UA] over SCTP [SCTP] between the SG and MGC.) </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; This recommends the use of specific existing =
protocols for carrying SS7 over IP, and so clearly meets the BCP scope =
of specifying what can be done with existing protocols.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>2.&nbsp; There should be direct mapping of the CSN =
(international and / or national) ETS call marking(s) and associated =
SS7 congestion priorities.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; Recommends that two specific parameters of =
interest to ETS should be mapped ("preserved" probably would have been =
a better choice of words) at a signaling gateway. I.e., the SG should =
function just like an STP and send out only what it receives without =
modifying the input.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>3.&nbsp; For an ETS call the same mapping and =
translation should be applied to the call setup IAM being sent from the =
IP network to the CSN upon egress as was applied to the IAM sent from =
the CSN to the IP network upon ingress, e.g., in the U.S.A. the NSEP =
codepoint in the Calling Party Category (CPC) and, if present, the =
optional Precedence parameter.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; Recommends that the mapping and translation =
function - as specified for the ETS parameters of interest in (2) - at =
ingress and egress to the signaling gateway be symmetrical, i.e., that =
the network should be transparent.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>4.&nbsp; The MPT3 congestion priority of the received =
IAM be propagated unchanged in the outgoing IAM, (e.g., in the U.S., =
IAMs with NSEP set have a congestion priority of one whereas all other =
IAMs have a lower congestion priority of zero).</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; Specifically, recommends that the congestion =
priority of the IAM at ingress not be changed at egress.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>5.&nbsp; Assign two values from the experimental and =
local use pool of Diffserv codepoints to designate and differentiate =
International ETS and National ETS. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; Our understanding is that the use of =
experimental and locally administrable items within a single domain is =
a practice, not a protocol extension.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>6.&nbsp; Correlate the two Diffserv codepoints with a =
PHB constructed by "copying" the EF PHB, but perhaps changing some =
parameter values.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; Our understanding is that defining a PHB for =
a Diffserv local and experimental codepoint is matter of =
practice.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>7.&nbsp; Use the following specific experimental and =
local pool Diffserv codepoints: assignments: National Emergency =3D =
011111, International Emergency =3D 011011</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; This recommendation just calls out specific =
values for convenience in order to coordinate usage of the Diffserv =
values from this pool.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>8.&nbsp; Separate ETS traffic treatment, both =
signaling and data, from other traffic treatment by the use of a =
dedicated MPLS Diff-serv codepoint in E-LSPs</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; We understand that MPLS codepoints and E-LSPs =
are matters of local administration.&nbsp; We intend to clarify this =
recommendation to specify that one of the two unused MPLS Diffserv =
codepoints should be used (specifically 6, since we understand that =
common practice is to use 7 for network management).&nbsp; Based upon =
the current practice of using 7 for network management, we conclude =
that we are able to recommend the practice of using 6 for ETS within a =
single administrative domain. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>9.&nbsp; Associate the Diffserv PHB with the MPLS =
Diffserv codepoint as is used for Diffserv in general.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; Again, if we can define the MPLS Diffserv =
codepoint at a matter of practice, it would seem that we can also =
define its PBH as a matter of practice.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>10.&nbsp; ETS calls should be specified by use of the =
SIP Priority header with a designation of &quot;emergency&quot;.&nbsp; =
</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; We are not recommending changing the use of =
this field for notifying the user.&nbsp; We're just saying, for ETS =
calls, use it for its intended purpose.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>11.&nbsp; Use SDP attribute parameters to specify ETS =
sessions as either National Emergency sessions using the attribute =
parameter value &quot;x-NatETS&quot; (where the leading &quot;x&quot; =
is understood to be customary to designate non-standard values) or =
International Emergency sessions using the attribute parameter value =
&quot;x-IntETS&quot;. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; Since we are recommending locally =
administrable values, we understand this to be a matter of practice for =
a single administrable domain, rather than protocol extension. =
</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>12.&nbsp; Use the MEGACO ContextRequest parameter for =
"emergency" (Boolean) to indicate "emergency" and the MEGACO =
ContextRequest parameter for "priority" with priorities 0-4.&nbsp; =
</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>*&nbsp; Our understanding here is that these =
parameters are already defined and their use is a matter of local =
practice.&nbsp; </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>Note that we do not include the SIP RPH in any of our =
recommendations.&nbsp; We recognize that the SIP section is there for =
information and that the ETS namespace position needs to be officially =
pursued as a separate effort.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>We are at the stage of discussions with vendors and =
carriers that requires real (and preferably official) guidance on how =
we would like them to address our ETS needs in their new IP =
deployments.&nbsp; We understand a BCP carries with it the endorsement =
of the IETF, and although it is not a standard, it has a lot more =
weight than other non-standard RFCs.&nbsp; We recognize that some could =
raise the question of whether or not the IETF should advocate a =
practice without a firm experiential base for knowing if it is the best =
(or even a good) practice.&nbsp; Our view, at least at the moment, is =
that an expert view of what seems to be a "best practice in the absence =

There is substantial experimental data (e.g. Navy TAC-4 workstation
contract) that the US Government is not restricted to citing=20
standards-track
documents in its procurements, contracts, or agreements.  Instead,
the evidence indicates that any open specification is something that
could be used in a procurement, contract, or agreement.  So the state
of DISA or NCS (or any other party's) negotiations with vendors,=20
operators,
or others is quite irrelevant to any IETF Working Group.

An alternative approach would be for a set of concerned individuals or
an organisation (e.g. DISA or NCS) to publish an Informational RFC as
a position document, then work with operators to obtain appropriate
practical deployment experience, then AFTERWARDS work towards moving
a (possibly modified based on experience) document forward for=20
consideration
as BCP.  This would be a more productive approach in my own view.

I continue to be concerned that contractors of the US Government are
not acting as individuals here, but rather acting based primarily on
who is paying which salaries.  And I also continue to be concerned that
those persons are not giving due and fair consideration of the=20
International
(i.e. non-US) nature of both the IETF and the global Internet.

Not "some could" ask those questions, but rather that each active=20
participant
in this WG NEEDS to consider those questions *as a normal part of being
an active participant in an IETF WG*.  Of course different individuals=20=

might
reach different conclusions -- on any question before any IETF WG -- but
the responsibility of the IETF participant is to carefully consider=20
exactly
those sorts of questions.

As near as I can tell, it would not be consistent with past IETF=20
decisions
and policies for IETF to publish a BCP about a practice that has=20

The working definition of "expert" is very much in the eye of the=20
beholder
in this WG.  There is significant evidence of non-consensus on the=20
problem
definition as well as on the "expert's view" of how to proceed.  While
that is sad, it is also reality.  We ought to keep grounded in reality.

> Would appreciate your specific feedback, specifically on our views of how
> the ID's recommendations are in scope for a BCP.

if the doc is designed to ask other IETF working groups to explore
how to meet requirements that teh IEPREP WG feels need to be
met to support emergency traffic then it can not be a BCP by definition
and I agree with James that the odc should be split unto individual 
documents that provide ieprep requirements on a per technology nasis

if the doc is intended to tell ISPs and enterprises what the IEPREP
thinks is the best way to meet the needs of emergency traffic it must
be based on technology that the ISPs or enterprises have or can get
thus, if the doc suggests changes or additions to other IETF 
technologies (including having a SIP recource header) then it
can not be published as a BCP until those changes have been accepted,
and woudl have to be revised based on what the other IETF WGs actually do

to your specific points

I think a BCP should just say what is recommended to meet the needs
and think teh difference between RECOMMENDED and "suggested" is too 
fine a difference to be clear to the reader

if indeed it points to existing RFCs saying how to transport the

I may be confused but if its just SS7 stuff I'm not sure the IETF is 
right place to make recommendations

if this is a recommendation on how a SIP field should be used then 
it should be done by the SIP WG - ieprep could tell sipping that 
there is a need to transport the  NSEP codepoint to the gateway
and the SIP wg can think about the best way to do that

I do not know how this actually applies to transporting things
over IP networks - if it saying that data needs to be carried from the
gateway to the IP end node then the comment for #3 applies -

I do not think that we can reasonabally avoid the normal review process
for this type of thing by saying its just a local matter - this is defining
a specific use of a value and any such definition should go thorugh
the normal process for that variable - anything else distorts the 
review process that has been properly established for the variables

but that does not qualify a RFC to be designated a BCP - it could 
be designated experimental but without any indication that
things would actually do what is needed it clearly can not be a BCP

and again, I agree with James that the right way forward for these
recommendations is to agree on documents that have the requirements 
for the other WGs and send them off to those WGs

the idea behind the BCP deliverable in the charter came from the
1st BOF where it was pointed out that there were some things
that were actually being done in today's networks and it was
pointed out that it woudl be useful to write them down - Fred Baker
did a pass on this and I've suggested to him that he revive that 
ID for further consideration now that the other work is mostly
done

Scott, Ran,

Thanks for your comments.  I think we understand your specifics and can
aggregate them into the following views:

1)	It would be better to develop the guidance as an informational RFC
versus an official BCP, and then maybe later, if its application and
experience warrants, advance it as a BCP.

I think we agree with this approach.  We certainly agree that our objective
to provide guidance to our providers does not have to be met with
"standards", but can be met with less "official" documents.  We just want to
gain as much as possible community review and consensus on how best to
implement an ETS.  The BCP description in the Charter sounded like the right
thing, but if an informational RFC is more appropriate, then that is ok.  

2)	If we are trying to develop a BCP, then the "suggested" work
initiatives should be removed and developed separately as IEPREP
requirements products for input to the protocol WGs.

We agree, and if the document is continued as a BCP initiative, we will edit
accordingly.  I also presume that if the document is an informational RFC,
then it may be more appropriate to discuss the work in progress and its
potential application, but that we should nonetheless initiate requirements
docs for the work in progress we want to support and / or refine.

3)	We should not try to bypass the normal review process for assignment
of values to variables.

We agree and that was not our intent.  Rather, we were trying to align with
the notion that a BCP should deal only with what can be done with existing
protocol standards, and not with protocol extensions.  Thus, we were
advocating use of consistent local practices in variable value assignments
as permitted in the standards until such assignments could be properly
reviewed and advanced as standard.  If we make the document an informational
RFC versus a BCP, are we on better ground to suggest such local practice
consistency in variable value assignment?  

We do not remember any document as you describe from Fred and if you could
give us a pointer to it, that would be much appreciated.  If he has not yet
released a draft, then we would endorse your encouragement of him to do so.


Finally, as a point of info, page 174 of the SIP RFC 3261 describes the
Priority header (which is separate from the Resource-Priority header that is
only in draft status and may have been what you were thinking of).

Thanks again for the comments.  I think the above summarizes the view, but
if we missed some point or got a point wrong, please let us know.

if the doc is designed to ask other IETF working groups to explore
how to meet requirements that teh IEPREP WG feels need to be
met to support emergency traffic then it can not be a BCP by definition
and I agree with James that the odc should be split unto individual 
documents that provide ieprep requirements on a per technology nasis

if the doc is intended to tell ISPs and enterprises what the IEPREP
thinks is the best way to meet the needs of emergency traffic it must
be based on technology that the ISPs or enterprises have or can get
thus, if the doc suggests changes or additions to other IETF 
technologies (including having a SIP recource header) then it
can not be published as a BCP until those changes have been accepted,
and woudl have to be revised based on what the other IETF WGs actually do

to your specific points

I think a BCP should just say what is recommended to meet the needs
and think teh difference between RECOMMENDED and "suggested" is too 
fine a difference to be clear to the reader

if indeed it points to existing RFCs saying how to transport the

I may be confused but if its just SS7 stuff I'm not sure the IETF is 
right place to make recommendations

if this is a recommendation on how a SIP field should be used then 
it should be done by the SIP WG - ieprep could tell sipping that 
there is a need to transport the  NSEP codepoint to the gateway
and the SIP wg can think about the best way to do that

I do not know how this actually applies to transporting things
over IP networks - if it saying that data needs to be carried from the
gateway to the IP end node then the comment for #3 applies -

I do not think that we can reasonabally avoid the normal review process
for this type of thing by saying its just a local matter - this is defining
a specific use of a value and any such definition should go thorugh
the normal process for that variable - anything else distorts the 
review process that has been properly established for the variables

see # 5

I do not think there is a "SIP Priority header" yet approved

but that does not qualify a RFC to be designated a BCP - it could 
be designated experimental but without any indication that
things would actually do what is needed it clearly can not be a BCP

and again, I agree with James that the right way forward for these
recommendations is to agree on documents that have the requirements 
for the other WGs and send them off to those WGs

the idea behind the BCP deliverable in the charter came from the
1st BOF where it was pointed out that there were some things
that were actually being done in today's networks and it was
pointed out that it woudl be useful to write them down - Fred Baker
did a pass on this and I've suggested to him that he revive that 
ID for further consideration now that the other work is mostly
done

<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; our ETS needs in their new IP =
deployments.&nbsp; We understand a BCP carries with</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; it the endorsement of the IETF, and although it =
is not a standard, it has a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; lot more weight than other non-standard =
RFCs.&nbsp; We recognize that some could</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; raise the question of whether or not the IETF =
should advocate a practice</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; without a firm experiential base for knowing if =
it is the best (or even a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; good) practice.&nbsp; Our view, at least at the =
moment, is that an expert view of</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; what seems to be a &quot;best practice in the =
absence of experience&quot; is still a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>&gt; lot better in meeting our needs than no view at =
all.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>but that does not qualify a RFC to be designated a =
BCP - it could </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>be designated experimental but without any =
indication that</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>things would actually do what is needed it clearly =
can not be a BCP</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>and again, I agree with James that the right way =
forward for these</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>recommendations is to agree on documents that have =
the requirements </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>for the other WGs and send them off to those =
WGs</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=3D2>the idea behind the BCP deliverable in the charter =
came from the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>1st BOF where it was pointed out that there were =
some things</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>that were actually being done in today's networks =
and it was</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>pointed out that it woudl be useful to write them =
down - Fred Baker</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>did a pass on this and I've suggested to him that he =
revive that </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>ID for further consideration now that the other work =
is mostly</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=3D2>done</FONT>

OK, I have that one.  I will send it to Dennis, Pat and Kaz.  I didn't
realize it was considered a BCP.

it is not yet considered a BCP - that would not happen unless
the WG consensus is that it represents the best way we know of
to meet the requirements with existing technology

(I've not read the ID in a year and do not specifically recommend
or not recommend it to the WG but Fred was writing from experience 
and that is a good start for a document to be considered for publication
as a BCP RFC)

I think there has been some misunderstandings about the charter and the 
IETF process(es).

An ID that is to become a BCP does so after WG consensus, this ID clearly 
hasn't achieved that consensus - therefore I question its movement towards 
an Informational publication at this point.

This ID calls for specific changes to existing protocols which have been 
stated as only a matter of local policy, therefore the existing protocols 
aren't really changed - this is *not* correct. An existing protocol is one 
that requires nothing new to be done to it; a form of implement "as is in 
RFC XXXX".

Take SDP for example, if someone were to implement RFC 2327 "as is", would 
they get what you are calling for? The answer would be "no". You have 
called for an extension to that protocol within your ID - and that is not 
appropriate without the WG that is responsible for SDP to reach consensus 
on that extension. This is where a requirement(s) ID should be generated by 
the IEPREP WG into the MMUSIC WG to extend the SDP protocol. This would 
allow (perhaps almost force) MMUSIC to look at this requirements ID and 
decide if further work was necessary (through WG discussions). If further 
work was deemed necessary to satisfy this/these requirements, then a 
extension mechanism ID would be generated by someone as a Standards Track 
ID (in MMUSIC) to (hopefully) become a Standards Track RFC. Only at that 
point can a BCP (anywhere) reference it this capability.

I read at least 5 different extensions that are needed to different 
protocols from your ID.

I almost feel as if this ID was the conclusions of a gap analysis. That 
isn't a bad thing. My belief is that the conclusions of a gap analysis 
should generate one or more requirements IDs to be RFCd and put forth into 
the appropriate WGs for their discussions (just as in the SDP example 
mentioned above).

One idea from this ID is to turn it backwards into a requirements ID with 
what you conclude as the probable answers to the requirements. For example 
with SDP, you state that there should be two new attributes (x-NatETS and 
x-IntETS). In this new requirements ID, you (someone) can clearly state why 
the existing SDP (upon a careful review of specific referenced RFCs) cannot 
satisfy what you envision these new attributes accomplishing, and thus 
require "something" be done to satisfy these new capabilities that SDP MUST 
provide (that it currently doesn't).

This will lead to pointed discussions about SDP, and will allow community 
review of the requirements before deciding on the appropriate mechanism so 
satisfy the requirements. Having this requirements ID be a separate ID for 
SDP would allow specific energy to be directed at the ID by those that know 
SDP. This would be in contrast to an all-encompassing requirements ID that 
covers (at least) 5 different protocols requiring people to sift through 
what they are not interested in to get to what they are interested in. This 
also saves the sanity of the authors *not* having to keep one document 
together that makes sense    ;-)

Similar approaches should be taken with all protocols mentioned within this 
ID (Diffserv, MPLS, SIP, MEGACO).

Now to a point of correction, there is indeed a SIP Priority Header, but it 
is not used in a fashion you appear to think it does. The SIP Priority 
Header does NOT cause anything to be processed any differently, it is 
merely an indication to the receiving user (and not the user agent) of the 
importance of the session. This was why Henning and I needed to propose an 
extension to the SIP protocol for resource priority of SIP entities between 
the requesting and responding UAs. This effort had to be in a separate ID, 
after a requirements ID was agreed upon (RFC 3487). Once a Resource 
Priority header is created via a Standards Track RFC, vendors should 
interpret any priority in that header to also mean a priority indication to 
the called user (via the UI).

In your ID's reference to the SIP Priority header, it gives the syntax of 
the Resource Priority Header (without referencing that ID, BTW). This, too, 
is incorrect.

James,

We DO understand that the "SIP Priority Header" simply "flags" the call as
"emergency" to the end user.  Quite independent of anything else that
happens with SIP or DIffServe or MPLS or SDC, it seems sensible to use the
existing "notify the user that this is an emergency related call" feature.

The  paragraph that talks about the SIP Priority Header references  RFC
3261.

A next paragraph talks about the (not yet formally adopted) Resource
Priority Header, and the associated syntax. Maybe we need to insert some
text in between to make it clearer that we are talking about two different
things.

I agree we are missing the reference to  "Communications Resource Priority
Header for the Session Initiation Protocol" (formerly
draft-polk-sip-resource-02.txt and now
draft-ietf-sip-resource-priority-00.txt).  At one round of editing, I did
insert it, but somehow it didn't make it into the final version, and I
didn't proof well enough.   Apologies.  

Janet

Now to a point of correction, there is indeed a SIP Priority Header, but it 
is not used in a fashion you appear to think it does. The SIP Priority 
Header does NOT cause anything to be processed any differently, it is 
merely an indication to the receiving user (and not the user agent) of the 
importance of the session. This was why Henning and I needed to propose an 
extension to the SIP protocol for resource priority of SIP entities between 
the requesting and responding UAs. This effort had to be in a separate ID, 
after a requirements ID was agreed upon (RFC 3487). Once a Resource 
Priority header is created via a Standards Track RFC, vendors should 
interpret any priority in that header to also mean a priority indication to 
the called user (via the UI).

In your ID's reference to the SIP Priority header, it gives the syntax of 
the Resource Priority Header (without referencing that ID, BTW). This, too, 
is incorrect.

As has been said many times before, not all networks have the
advantage of
optical bandwidth.  Some ships must make do with limited radio links.
There are
places in the world without fiber.  Some users require high
probability
of connection even when the emergency happens in a place with limited
bandwidth.

I understand your point. This is not just common to limited cases
you depict. There are many places around deep space where you have=20
constrained bandwidth and so, capacity management is a major issue.=20
For example, a military sensor deployment or an ad-hoc network=20
formation in a emergency spot depends on constrained BW in a=20
multi-hop network.

I don't think ieprep WG can help you with this issue. I possibly
consider tranport level solutions in such scenarios as a non-starter.
Probably, a lot can be done at MAC layer for efficient capacity
management in such a power/BW-constrained environment. But, there=20
are situations in which an intermediate wireless node may need to=20

sent some kind of triggered notifications to the source. Their are=20
other issues like corruption Vs loss in such environments. some of
these issues are addressed by Trigtran and many research groups.
On a parallel side, a whole research group by name "delay tolerant=20
networks" is suggesting architecture for such environments.

what do you expect from ieprep for such deep space networks?=20

Deep space has not been a case I have considered.  My primary focus
has been
voice which stops being very useful as the delay gets too great (I
would guess
 a 15 second delay would make voice sufficiently annoying that people
would turn to email.
But I don't know of any experimental research on what this limit is. )

I didn't think IEPREP was constrained to Transport level solutions.
While
the WG is in the Transport Area, it is chartered to investigate the
requirements
in emergency comm.  As I understand it, the WG specifies requirements
that are to be passed
to other WGs to actually write protocols.  But these WGs don't have to
be in the Transport area.
If anyone disagrees with this (especially an AD) please correct me.


The solution I have been proposing for congested voice in a limited
bandwidth environment
is described in  < draft-silverman-diffserv-mlefphb-01.txt >.  (-02
will be submitted after the blackout.)
Unfortunately, the diffserv WG was closed
just before -00 was submitted so it is hard to  know where this should
be worked.  Note, the draft is
a proposed experimental RFC not a standards track.  This requirement
is for ceertain networks with special requirements
and probably for only some of the routers within that network (
routers on the bottlenecks).

OK, I do not agree, but that might only be in the way I read the above. You 
might have meant the clarification I have below that includes an important 
piece that was omitted from the above:

IEPREP is the type of WG that writes requirements for other WGs to 
*consider* doing protocol/mechanism work on. IEPREP cannot demand, nor does 
it direct WGs like SIP or MPLS to *do* work. It merely presents 
requirements that are not currently met by existing protocols "as is" and 
provides the justification (and not the solution) for how one or more 
protocols/mechanisms should be extended to satisfy those requirements.

Case in point is RFC 3487, which was produced by IEPREP for SIP(PING). That 
WG produced an ID very quickly (from our AD himself in fact) questioning 
some of the requirements the IEPREP WG reached consensus on. This action 
was following proper procedure within the IETF.

In times of great disaster, whether natural or man-made, I find it somewhat 
curious that anyone can predict with certainty which routers will 
experience bottlenecks and which will not.... If there is any doubt in that 
prediction, any proactive mechanism proposal (such as this Diffserv ID) 
would need to be configured on all routers in a network, wouldn't it? I 
think the answer is yes.

Probably, you should read RFC 2026 (particularly Section 4.2 )

also, quoting scott(?),

Obviously at the IP level, only packets are flowing and intermediate
nodes (routers) don't know about the connection.
But, "the President doesn't get a busy signal (or "No resources
available")  "
When he makes a VoIP call, his (or her) packets get thru and the
called and calling parties can understand
each other (enough packets get thru for usable voice).
Even if there are many people making voice calls or attempting voice
calls and the existing bandwidth
is insufficient, certain previously marked users get some sort of
priority so that they can
have useful voice calls.  This means that those marked users and their
called party's packets don't get dropped or delayed enough that those
packets are unusable.

Note that this is a functional description as perceived by the end
users.  While I have certain ideas
about how this might be accomplished, I am only proposing a functional
requirement here since that is all
IEPREP is allowed to do.

It should also be noted that this function has been available for 40
years and is a prerequisite for the DOD to
convert to VoIP.  They simply CAN'T migrate without it.  Some people
may disagree as to the "true" requirements
but certain major decision makers (JCS - Joint Chiefs of Staff) are
quite convinced about the need for this function.
I don't this level or management tends to spend much time on this
list.
Since I have no problem
envisioning scenarios in which this functionality is truly required, I
have no problem attempting to accomplish  it.
(e.g.,  Dec. 7, 1941: Pearl Harbor - "The Japanese have declared
war"....   )

I think everything above is old info on this list but I thought I
should respond to a direct question.

All,

It is completely unproductive to cycle through the same arguments based upon
vague unstated assumptions.  Defining the context is key.  

For example, consider the statement "ships need to communicate over radio
links".  I surmise these radio links connect to an enterprise network.  Yes,
preferential treatment to some users is possible.  There are drafts on this.
Do they meet the needs?  

In another context, suppose we would like a high availability network.
Maybe we are an emergency relief organization and want to know what to look
for in a service provider's network that would ensure quality service.
Maybe we are an enterprise designing a network to support emergency
services.  What is the hallmark of a high availability network?  Perhaps
this merits a discussion at the meeting.

Kimberly

And who is presenting what material in that slot ?

With all other non-administrative agenda items there is an I-D
as the basis for discussion AND the schedule presenter/discusser
is listed openly right now.

Could you please provide more detail on the above item ?
and its objectives ?

Thanks.

The "old" DDN of the late 1980s reportedly implemented the IP ToS
Priority bits as per RFC-791.  One might imagine that the same
solution would work now that worked back then.  There are any
number of commercial products that could support such a deployment
today iff DoD decided to enable that configuration in the equipment.

A fair chunk of the deployed NIPRnet/SIPRnet equipment could support
MLPP tomorrow with a simple edit to the config file, if the applicable
DoD folks decided that they wanted to deploy such a policy.

Whether those DoD folks decide to do that or not is their internal
policy issue, not an IETF matter.

What I continue to have trouble locating in your notes is the IETF
standards problem, as different from a DoD-internal matter of what
existing technologies they choose to use or not use.

If this note is in some way confusing, I'm happy to drive in to
DISA/Skyline some day and walk through how it can be done with
existing technology with any set of interested folks.  The constraints
on the existing technology mainly involves inter-domain QoS --
but the DoD is a single policy domain so existing technology can
address the DoD VoIP deployment space pretty well.

GETS-like capabilities, which are generally inter-domain, are
somewhat more challenging to deploy with existing technology
for reasons discussed at great length on-list and in-meetings
in the past.

I will kick off a discussion on the topic

mostly to see if there is any different definition of a "high availability
network" than what ISPs are already doing (in the ISP space) or 
what an enterprise could do with today's technology (if it had
the network budget)

PROPOSED CHARTER:

Several types of access links in widespread use for Internet connectivity
today have characteristics that affect the operation Internet protocols and
services. Low-bandwidth, high latency links patched over telephone lines via
modems are one common example. Radio links in wireless networks (such as
GSM, IS-95, GPRS and 802.11) are another example. These links often have
undesirable characteristics such as high loss, high delay and low
reliability.
Transport intermediaries have been used to enhance the performance of
problematic links in the past (see RFC 3135). This BoF investigates further
work in support of transport intermediaries that provide assistance to
access links, including (but not exclusively) wireless links, primarily in
the areas of security protocol interaction with transport intermediaries and
response to changing link conditions. In particular, existing intermediaries
used for these purposes interfere with IPSec and may weaken overall
end-to-end security - work is therefore necessary to determine how to
request, authenticate and authorize the services of intermediaries, and when
possible to mitigate the interference of intermediaries in security.

This work focuses on support for TCP initially but does not preclude
consideration of other transport-layer protocols. The relationship of
transport intermediaries to devices constrained by OPES and UNSAF is also
critical to the architectural framework.

Since this came up twice in today's IEPREP meeting, here is the text from
3246 (last paragraph of actual text before the author addresses).

   "It should be noted that it is quite acceptable for a Diffserv domain
   to provide multiple instances of EF.  Each instance should be
   characterizable by the equations in Section 2.2 of this
   specification.  The effect of having multiple instances of EF on the
   E_a and E_p values of each instance will depend considerably on how
   the multiple instances are implemented.  For example, in a multi-
   level priority scheduler, an instance of EF that is not at the
   highest priority may experience relatively long periods when it
   receives no service while higher priority instances of EF are served.
   This would result in relatively large values of E_a and E_p.  By
   contrast, in a WFQ-like scheduler, each instance of EF would be
   represented by a queue served at some configured rate and the values
   of E_a and E_p could be similar to those for a single EF instance."

It clearly refers to multiple instances with different priority ("an
instance of EF that is not at the highest priority", and to multiple queues
("each instance of EF would be represented by a queue").  What it doesn't
address is the use of additional code points to distinguish the additional
instances.

I believe that most shipping DiffServ implementations already
can support multiple EF or multiple AF (or any mixture)
concurrently.  The number of queues supported does often
vary, with DoD precedence needing 8 queues and much
currently shipping equipment only supporting 2 or 4 queues.
So operators should test before they decide what to deploy
(as always).

Note Well:
	The question of which codepoints have which meanings
is quite literally a deployment detail.  Each deployment
will very probably be different.  This is not a problem
since inter-domain DiffServ is virtually non-existent today
(and will remain non-existent for the foreseeable future
for reasons discussed at length here in the past).

I think this notion of multiple instances of EF has caused some confusion, 
since RFC 3246 says so little about it. As noted above, with a multilevel 
priority scheduler, an instance of EF (queue) not at the highest priority would not 
comply with the criteria for being called "EF". Therefore, it is not EF.

With a WFQ-like scheduler, each EF queue is guaranteed to be served often 
enough, that is, a certain amount of the output bandwidth is reserved for it and 
its queue size limit must be set based on the amount of bandwidth it gets. It 
seems that this makes all such EF queues equal, but depends on careful 
scheduling of serving the queues so no one gets ignored too long. It also seems to me 
that the next logical step is to use a single queue, but to apply different 
queue thresholds for each of the multiple DSCPs which point to that one queue.

Yes it is.  It is just EF with a relatively large  E_a and E_p.  The
definition of EF doesn't say they have to be small, just they have to be
bounds.

Since this came up twice in today's IEPREP meeting, here is the text from 
3246 (last paragraph of actual text before the author addresses). 

  "It should be noted that it is quite acceptable for a Diffserv domain 
  to provide multiple instances of EF.  Each instance should be 
  characterizable by the equations in Section 2.2 of this 
  specification.  The effect of having multiple instances of EF on the 
  E_a and E_p values of each instance will depend considerably on how 
  the multiple instances are implemented.  For example, in a multi- 
  level priority scheduler, an instance of EF that is not at the 
  highest priority may experience relatively long periods when it 
  receives no service while higher priority instances of EF are served. 
  This would result in relatively large values of E_a and E_p.  By 
  contrast, in a WFQ-like scheduler, each instance of EF would be 
  represented by a queue served at some configured rate and the values 
  of E_a and E_p could be similar to those for a single EF instance." 



I think this notion of multiple instances of EF has caused some confusion,
since RFC 3246 says so little about it. As noted above, with a multilevel
priority scheduler, an instance of EF (queue) not at the highest priority
would not comply with the criteria for being called "EF". Therefore, it is
not EF. 

With a WFQ-like scheduler, each EF queue is guaranteed to be served often
enough, that is, a certain amount of the output bandwidth is reserved for it
and its queue size limit must be set based on the amount of bandwidth it
gets. It seems that this makes all such EF queues equal, but depends on
careful scheduling of serving the queues so no one gets ignored too long. It
also seems to me that the next logical step is to use a single queue, but to
apply different queue thresholds for each of the multiple DSCPs which point
to that one queue.

Guess I'm thinking of the use of the multiple queues for voice, since that 
was the subject here (emergeny calls). While it is true that the lower 
"priority" queue could meet the criteria for EF for some other constant bit rate 
service with much less stringent delay requirements, I don't believe it could meet 
the requirements for voice.

I know of deployed DoD voice/IP applications whose requirements
are well below even needing *any* form of DiffServ, so I do not
believe the claim that only one queue of EF will meet 'voice
requirements' is very generally true.

The claim might be true for some particular vocoder algorithm,
though no particular algorithm or other qualification was made
clear in the quoted text.   To some of us, such a lack of
resilience would be a large clue to use a different vocoder
algorithm.  A number of ITU-T vocoder algorithms appear to
lack resilience -- not surprising since many (all ?) of them
were designed for the circuit-switched phone system.

Folks here might really want to grab a copy of NRL's Ivox
and play with it.  It has a range of vocoders (several
proprietary to DoD).  The software is freely available
for a number of OS/CPU platforms and it works quite well.
(Google for "NRL IVOX" and you should turn it up :-).

Cheers,

Ran

Ran,

Question for clarification: EF is for voice bearer. What about voice-related
signaling streams? How are they handled at the routing layer? 

Thanks,

An

I know of deployed DoD voice/IP applications whose requirements
are well below even needing *any* form of DiffServ, so I do not
believe the claim that only one queue of EF will meet 'voice
requirements' is very generally true.

The claim might be true for some particular vocoder algorithm,
though no particular algorithm or other qualification was made
clear in the quoted text.   To some of us, such a lack of
resilience would be a large clue to use a different vocoder
algorithm.  A number of ITU-T vocoder algorithms appear to
lack resilience -- not surprising since many (all ?) of them
were designed for the circuit-switched phone system.

Folks here might really want to grab a copy of NRL's Ivox
and play with it.  It has a range of vocoders (several
proprietary to DoD).  The software is freely available
for a number of OS/CPU platforms and it works quite well.
(Google for "NRL IVOX" and you should turn it up :-).

Cheers,

Ran

Any or all configuration of "active queuing" [1] is a
decision made individually by each network operator.

IETF normally does not try to tell any network operator
how to configure, deploy, or operate their network(s).

So those streams could be handled in any way that the operator
chose to configure their network.  If the question is
about what options exist, I address that in more detail
below.  If the question is about what is deployed, the
operators are in a better position to talk about that.

QoS capabilities of networking equipment (e.g. switches,
routers) varies a great deal.

Equipment built on commodity switch/router silicon
(e.g. inexpensive stuff bought at retail stores) often
looks more or less like this:
	- one queue per port (i.e. no QoS)
	- two queues per port (i.e. very limited QoS)
	- no 'packet classification' [2] capability
	  or very limited packet classification capability
	- only one form of queue management available
		(WFQ might be most common)

Equipment built on vendor-designed proprietary silicon
(e.g. Extreme, Juniper) often has more capabilities:
	- 4 or 8 queues per port
	- ability to classify packets/frames based on
	  multiple header fields such as
		- 802.1p precedence
		- IP ToS byte
		- IP Addresses (source &/or dest)
		- upper-protocol (TCP, UDP, SCTP)
		- application port (source &/or dest)
	- multiple queue management algorithms
		(WFQ, RED, & WRED are all pretty common)

	The ability to (re-)mark the IP ToS byte or 802.1p
precedence field based on classification is not uncommon,
but is certainly not available in all current equipment.

	In the more QoS-capable equipment, it certainly would be
possible to classify any traffic that used predictable
port/protocol combinations and either raise or lower the
priority of that traffic, subject that traffic to active
queuing, mark IP ToS/802.1p precedence bits, or otherwise
apply QoS to that traffic.

	Operators likely would want to test the behaviour of
equipment before selecting it for deployment and before
enabling or configuring QoS on that equipment, of course.

[1] Meaning DiffServ of any type, Class-based Queing in routers,
or anything similar that uses more than one queue per port
and some form of queue management.  Commonly implemented
queue management techniques include WFQ, RED, WRED.
[2] Packet Classification normally means the ability to
look at a packet (or frame in the case of an L2 switch),
the header fields, and then sort the packet (or frame) into
the appropriate queue (possibly including re-marking the
IP ToS byte or 802.1p precedence field as well).

	Personally, I think the notion that 'only EF is suitable
for voice' is confused at best.  My own experience is that
one can configure DiffServ in such a way that it is not really
terribly useful for anything -- and also that one can configure
DiffServ so that it adds a lot of value.  I think too much
attention to EF or AF (or other PHB) often can confuse the
issues rather than simplify them.  I've seen AF-compliant
queuing used with voice -- and work well.  I have also seen
EF-compliant queuing used with voice -- and work poorly.

	The DoD reportedly has had significant experience with
the IP precedence values defined in RFC-791 -- and as near as
I've heard that worked well (and occurred before the IETF
even created a DiffServ WG).  As far as I know, most of that
experience was on Proteon boxes -- whose OSPF supported
ToS-based path selection (e.g. so delay sensitive traffic
would use undersea cable between JP and US, while some other
traffic would tend to go via SATCOM).  I think that the
ACC boxen might also have supported those OSPF enhancements,
but I'm not certain.

One challenge to ISPs that use the above approach to classify
traffic for certain port/protocols (e.g. telephony signalling)
would be that individuals using other applications (e.g. multimedia
file-sharing applications) would probably configure their
applications to use those same port/protocol values in order
to obtain the preferred service for non-legitimate traffic.

That is a kind of denial-of-service attack, one that has
been discussed various places (e.g. IEPG) in the past.

A second challenge is that if a backbone is typical --
and is over-provisioned -- then traffic that is queued
specially could well have worse performance/QoS results
than the best-effort traffic.  This is a counter-intuitive
result, but has been reported as experimental result in
some cases (again, this was from an in-person discussion
at an IEPG meeting a while back).

So it is really not clear that there would be benefit to
deploying any of this QoS stuff in an inter-domain context.

Within a single administrative domain, the operator could
theoretically force applications to only use protocol/port
combinations that were approved by the powers-that-be for
that administrative domain -- though this could be pretty
hard to achieve in practice if one's domain had significant
deployment size.

The Internet Emergency Preparedness (IEPREP) meeting consisted of 2
presentations and a discussion.  

The first was given by Ken Carlberg who went over changes to both the
general and IP telephony requirements for IEPREP.   There were no objections
to the document substance. In addition, he discussed individual contribution
on stub domains.  

The second contribution was given by Janet Gunn about the draft written
by McGregor, Kaczmarek, Berg and Gunn on MPLS IP bridging scenarios for
IEPREP.  During the discussion it was pointed out that the draft proposed
modifying existing IETF protocols and that any such modification was
outside the scope of the IEPREP WG charter. It was suggested that the
authors break up the ID into multiple smaller IDs that focused on
requirements for individual IETF protocols.  It was also noted that 
some parts of the ID (for example using SIP to notify end users) 
did not seem to be relevant to the specific bridging context the ID was
addressing.

Scott Bradner then initiated a discussion of High Availability Networks.
He went over general design concepts in IP networks that lead to resilient
networks.  He then asked the working group if they thought IEPREP needed
to do anything in writing documents to help network operators build such
networks.  The working group pointed out that ISPs tend to provide these 
capabilities in order to support their customers.  But it was pointed out
that some of the newer ISP players might not have the background to
understand the importance of redundant network designs.  The conclusion 
of the discussion was that IEPREP did not have any additional role in 
defining documents for High Availability Networks but that such 
documents might be a reasonable topic for some O&M area working group.

Hi, Transport Area Chairs,

A number of you have already sent us summaries of your working groups.

Please send a brief, pre-minutes narrative of the major decisions and
events
of the meeting to Jon and me.  It can really just cover selected
consenses,
and/or controversies.  Highlights.  It is also a useful item to send to 
your working groups, suitably labelled.  We'd like to have this before 
July 31.  Next time, with more notice, we'll ask for it within a week of

the IETF meeting. 

Milestone updates are important at this time too.  
Send them to iesg-secretary, cc the ADs.

Carlberg presentation

Basic telephony and general requirements were acceptable (i.e., no
objections) to the working group.  The framework will undergo another pass
through.
Polk - raised the issue that the IETF use terms in alignment with the ITU.
The ITU uses the initialism TDR (telecommunications for disaster relief) vs.
ETS.  



Carlberg stub domain presentation

Berg - wants to know if access links and transit are part of some IEPREP
document, Scott says within a domain but not in plan to go beyond single
domain.  Desire has been expressed but not enough meet in traction to go
further. Scott feels the intention is both stub domains and transit over a
single domain.
Polk - wants to know EF relationship and things like MPLS ideas.



Gunn presentation

Polk - This document proposes extensions to a lot of existing protocols, and
a BCP is intended to use existing technology in its practices. The ideas in
this document might be better served if the ideas were broken up, replaced
by requirements, and moved into the appropriate working groups for
consideration. If the resulting mechanisms are standardized, then the
document can be revived in IEPREP for consideration. Further, the point is
that this document only proposed solutions, which are not appropriate. In
order for this document to have any use it must be made up of requirements.

Bradner - This document, as is, has no path forward. The use of experimental
codepoints makes it such that it won't be made into an RFC. Also, a best
common practices document must be possible with existing technology, and due
to the fact that you are using experimental codepoints, you don't meet that
requirement. If the media gateway is smart enough to differentiate between
ETS and non-ETS traffic, then the IP portion is not relevant, as two tunnels
can be created (1 - ETS; 1 - non ETS), and manage the priority in that way.

Henry (MCI) - There are no IP phones in the architecture, and therefore the
model is bad. Also, it doesn't consider cable networks at all.
Scott Bradner said that it was "a scenario that needs to be addressed, but
not the only one."

Dick Knight - asked a clarification on the requirement in the proposed BCP
for the use of M2UA rather M3UA. Dick stated that M2UA emulates SS7 MTP2
level (Signaling Transport - Link Level) so that an existing SS7 MTP3
(Signaling Transport - Network Level) can be used without it knowing that it
is operating in an IP packet environment. Similarly, M3UA emulates the
Signaling Network Level of SS7, so that ISUP and other Application Parts of
the SS7 stack, can be used without knowledge of the underlying IP network.
Janet's presentation explicitly stated that M2UA MUST be used in order to
preserve SS7 ISUP parameters. Dick pointed out that whether M2UA or M3UA is
used, the ISUP parameters are unaffected. He asked for an explanation of
this requirement.

Dick Knight also said  "People are using M3UA or M2PA. Nobody is using
M2UA."  Also "There is no point in using the (current) SIP emergency header
if you are going to a CSN phone. The SIP emergency notification will never
get there. The SIP emergency notification only makes sense if it is going to
a SIP phone."





Bradner presentation

Scott went over general concepts of multi-homing user sites and avoiding
single points of failure in general.  These types of techniques lead to
resilient networks.  He then asked the working group if they thought IEPREP
needed to do anything in writing documents to help network operators build
such networks.  The working group pointed out that ISPs tend to provide
these capabilities in order to support their customers.  Nothing in their
provisioning was particularly relevant to physical emergencies as IP
networks already route around failures and handle problems with
infrastructure (e.g., backhoe fiber cuts) on a daily basis without customer
impact.  The conclusion of the discussion was that IEPREP did not have any
additional role in defining documents for High Availability Networks.

I'm unable to parse/lex:
	"Desire has been expressed but not enough meet in traction
	to go further."

Which desire was expressed ?
What does "not enough meet in traction" mean ?

The Telephony  Framework document says (about MEGACO):

    "The protocol does not specify individual values for priority.  We
   also do not recommend the definition of a well known value for the
   MEGAGO priority.  Any values set should be a function of any SLAs
   that have been established regarding the handling of emergency
   traffic.  In addition, given that priority values denote precedence
   (according to the Megaco protocol), then by default the ETS telephony
   data flows should probably receive the same priority as other non-
   emergency calls.  This approach follows the objective of not relying
   on preemption as the default treatment of emergency-related."

But the Megaco document (3525) says

"The priority is used for a Context in order to provide the MG with
information about a certain precedence handling for a Context."

Nothing about preemption.

Therefore it seems to me that "denoting precedence" is exactly what we DO
want to do in the ETS/TDR context.
