  2. Why Are We Here? • The combination of ownership diversity and technology diversity is reflected in a more complex set of management interfaces to control infrastructure: Access/ metro and backbone networks may belong to different carriers or • business entities Different technologies among providers (Metro/ Access and Core networks) • Different service “ values” : per-flow for video streams vs. per-aggregation • group for voice sessions vs. best-effort Regulatory issues such as intercept/ surveillance which may result in routing • and aggregation decisions • Difficult to control user traffic Core networks have no ability or incentive to provide special treatment on • import ant user flows End-user congestion and flow control (e,g, TCP) may not be sufficient • Routing mechanisms like OS PF or IS -IS may not be good enough when it comes • to business-based route selection • Providers need to create more services with manageable operation cost 2

  5. Pseudowire provides the following today… • Transport Agnostic Pseudowires can support IP and Ethernet, and even optical cross-connections • • IP-friendly Pseudowires are provisioned and controlled via IP control plane • • Inter-network capable PWE3 multi-hop [MHOP] and switching [S WITCH] techniques enable the providers to • provision Pseudowires over multiple intra-domain or inter-domain networks. • VPN capable Pseudowire has been extended in IETF to create a nested topology for VPN applications, • which include VPLS and VPWS . • SLA capable Pseudowire technique can provide QoS , protection and restoration and congestion • control functionality at per-flow basis. • Flow type agnost ic Pseudowires can encapsulate any type of data flows. As defined today, Pseudowires can • encapsulate Layer-1 flows in S ONET/ S DH format (the technique is known as Circuit Emulation), Layer-2 flows such as ATM, Frame Relay, PPP and Ethernet, and IP All in deployment today 5

  6. The Importance of Application-Awareness • New data services may require per-application-flow management and control: Application flow examples • • RTP for session-based applications such as VoD and VoIP • MPEG for multimedia applications Application flows need to be managed inside the network • • New applications bring an entirely different set of service requirements: Examples: • • Packet video: tolerate packet out-of-order delivery • Packet voice: tolerate packet drop, but not delay • “ S eamless Convergence ” offerings: user flows can adapt to the change of link bandwidth, but maintain constant-bit-rate Traditional mechanisms (IEEE 802.1p or IP DiffS erv) are not adequate • to handle such applications. Map application flows into Pseudowires � Consistent e2e behavior 6

  7. GIBSON Attributes • Application-awareness GIBS ON Pseudowires map and aggregate data flows from any layer • (i.e., layer 1 to 7) Aggregation method depends on applications: • One flow/ Pseudowire: high-bandwidth and long-duration VoD • streams Multiple flows/ Pseudowire: low-speed and short-lived VoIP • sessions • Business-driven routing At network border, GIBS ON pseudowires are switched based on • business-driven routing • SMS Interfacing GIBS ON pseudowires are provisioned as a result of S MS Administration, • S MS Parent, and S MS Child communication 7

  13. Summary on GIBSON • Open interface for business service creation and provisioning • Operate in both intra-provider and inter-provider environment • Provide consistent edge-to-edge per-flow forwarding behavior • Flow type agnostics – capable of processing flows in any format • S upport for “ nesting” of Pseudowires to facilitate traffic management and virtual service creation • S upport for “ virtual segment s” that envelope multipoint service behavior created by capabilities like RFC 2547, to permit end-to-end multipoint delivery • Independent of underlying network transport tunneling mechanism • Applicable on all service devices, with less dependency on IP routing • Leverage and extend a proven and simple technology: Pseduowire 13

  14. What’s Next… • Gather more feedback from service providers • Define and implement S MS interfaces • Investigate more on routing interfaces Routing updates, and scalability • Interface with PCE • • Investigate more on RACF interfaces How to deal with all those QoS policies? • • Apply GIBSON to other user cases Business access (leased line services) • FMC • • Working toward standardizing the GIBS ON concept in IPsphere 14
