[itu-sg16] C-277: H.248.1 Compatibility
by Schwarz Albrecht 26 Jun '07

26 Jun '07

Hello Christian, all, like the proposal concerning forward & backward compatibility rules. Did add some text with regards to the compatibilty mechanism(s), which are specific to H.248 (and thus worth to be mentioned). Best regards, Albrecht <<T05-SG16-C-0277r1 H.248 Compatibility.doc>> #### Hello Albrecht, Keith, Thanks for the reference to Q.1400. I think it was these fundamentals of compatibility for ISUP and DSS that lead to the original definition of the version negotiation and protocol enhancement rules in H.248.1. At the time of writing H.248.1v1 there was involvement from a number of people involved in the work of SG11. I think the general principles of Q.1400 are in-line with what is being used in H.248.1 so at this level it can be used. I agree some of the specific examples aren't relevant for H.248.1. I'll try to propose some clarifying text for the Q.3/16 meeting. I don't intend to write a thesis on the matter, I intend to stick making simple rules applicable for protocol, packages and profiles.

At least you then know the capabilities have changed and the new optional features are available to be used. On the IPDC issues based on your response I've attached some proposed marked up changes to ES283 018 (13bTD108r3). For me at least the distinction is where the MGC knows the actual IPdomain its uses the IP realm identifier, where it doesn't its uses the terminationId and lets the MG decide. Other suggestions welcome. Regards, Christian CHATRAS Bruno RD-CORE-ISS wrote: > Yes I want to contrinue using implicit IP domain signalling. I want to be able to use new optional features brought by TISPAN Release 2 while continuing to use the existing mechanism for IP domain signalling. Actually I'm wondering wheter it was not a mistake to assume from the beginning TISPAN Release x maps to Profile Version x. It would certarinly be more efficient to have several releases mapping to the same Profile version with additional optional capabilties added over the releases... > > To answer your question, I think that the MGC does not need to know the IP Domain nor the IP address pool.

I guess I'm old fashioned, to me a version change is applied to a protocol whenever there is a change (as Wayne suggests). As I've posted before H.248.1 sect 11.3 outlines rules for up versioning the H.248 protocol. These rules have been/are applied to up-versioning of packages and I don't see why they are not applicable to > H.248 profile specifications. If you want to make changes that aren't compatible then you can use a new profile name. As Albrecht has suggested I will contribute to the next Q.3/16 meeting on this. I also agree with Wayne's email I don't see this change is a break of compatibility. > > I do think this backwards compatibility issue is distracting from the real issue however. > > It seems to me Bruno's real issue is that he wants to continue to use "implicit IP domain signalling" e.g. via the interface field in V2 without having to use H.248.41. Is this correct Bruno? If so then before I make a proposal along those lines I have a question about your comment: > > /2/ If the IP realm identifier is received by the BGF, it shall take > precedence over any IP realm that may be derived from (or associated > to) the interface identifier./ > > In the case of Ia v1 where do you see this association between the interfaceID and IP realm being set?

I'm very interested in NID activities in your rapporteur group. (I'm the rapporteur of ASTAP NID Expert Group) In your rapporteur group meeting report (TD413 R1), your group had a plan to consent 4 new recommendation on NID by July 2007 and April 2008. But, in your report, your group did not assign any editor for those new recommendations. Can I know the current status about NID related new recommendations? And, in the meeting report of WP2/16, your group will have meeting before SG16 meeting in June 2007. Did you have a meeting? If you had a meeting, can I get a meeting report? I'll prepare some contribution on NID in SG16 meeting. See you in Geneva.
