GTSC-5 Overview

• Presentations
• Presentation of GTSC-5 Summary Report
  (GSC13-GTSC6-17)
• Summary
• TTC was thanked for their presentation of this
  report

NGN General (ETSI)

• Presentations
• Contributions GSC13-GTSC6-02R2, -04, -11, -22
  (-14 and -15 for information)
• Summary
• Efforts are underway towards coordinating all the
  NGN work across numerous SDOs and close
  collaboration needs to be continued.
• Work is occurring to apply NGN Standards to
  support various expanded services to meet user
  ambitions and service/network providers business
  plans.
• Technical standards for NGN interconnection of
  services must be available in a timely manner.
• Gap analysis and top-down approaches may be
  useful to help advance work in NGN.
• Resolution
• A drafting group was charged with revising the
  Resolution regarding Next Generation Networks
  (NGN) starting with the baseline text contained
  in GSC13-GTSC6-04. Following review, the
  revisions submitted by ETSI were approved by
  GTSC-6 as the Resolution to be submitted to the
  closing plenary for GSC approval.

Cybersecurity (ATIS)

• Presentations
• Contributions GSC13-GTSC6-05, -07, -12 (-18 for
  information)
• Summary
• It was noted that Cybersecurity is currently one
  of the top priorities in the ITU.
• It is essential to have effective cooperation and
  collaboration across the many standards bodies
  doing Cybersecurity work.
• It is a considerable challenge to address
  security to enhance trust and confidence of users
  in networks, applications, and services.
• Security solutions have an impact on delay and
  performance and this challenge must be met to
  meet user expectations.
• Cybersecurity is a key element in the work on
  NGN.
• Resolution
• A drafting group was charged with revising the
  Resolution regarding Cybersecurity starting with
  the baseline text contained in GSC13-GTSC6-12a1.
  Following review, the text in GSC-13-GTSC6-12a1
  was approved by GTSC-6 as the Resolution to be
  submitted to the closing plenary for GSC approval.

Home Networking (ITU)

• Presentations
• Contributions GSC13-GTSC6-06, -09, -13, -16R1,
  -20R1 (-08, -19 for information)
• Summary
• Home Networking is considered to have a high
  impact on end-to-end QoS/QoE management.
  Different network technologies have different
  QoS/QoE classes, performance parameters, and
  performance objectives that need specific
  standards developed.
• There is currently a gap between the formal
  responsibility of providers and the customers
  expectation of QoS and QoE it will be necessary
  for standards developers to work together to
  minimize this gap.
• It may be necessary to examine several use cases
  in order to determine standards to provide
  QoS/QoE.
• It is critical to enable the delivery of a high
  quality user experience in a dynamic device and
  service rich environment.
• There is current work occurring on the guidelines
  for the implementation of security mechanisms in
  customer networks.
• PSOs are invited to support usable residential
  networking guidance towards users including a
  greener approach.
• Resolutions
• The existing Resolution, GSC12-20, regarding Home
  Networking was revised via live edits and the
  document as revised was approved by GTSC-6 as the
  Resolution to be submitted to the closing plenary
  for GSC approval.
