H.MediaMIB Work Plan Proposal

1
H.MediaMIBWork Plan Proposal

• SG16 WP2 Q14
• January 29, 1998

2
Goals

• H.MediaMIB Scope
• Based on SNMP V2
• Work Plan Proposal

3
How to define/develop MIBs

• Characterization of managed entity in terms of
  components, attributes actions, state, and
  statistics.
• Organization of information into collections of
  Object IDs (OID)s
• MIB structure and hierarchy tree related to MIB
  Object Names
• Writing and maintaining of the MIB in abstract
  syntax

Prior Contributions

• APC 1289 H.MediaMIB (Picturetel)
• Work Plan of Record
• AVC 1082 - (VTEL)
• A/V Terminal MIB Proposal
• AVC 1087 - (VideoServer)
• H.225 Proposal
• AVC 1109 - (VideoServer)
• H.245 Proposal
• TD - (Intel)
• IETF RTP MIB Proposal

8
Work Plan Proposal

• Phase 1 - H.323 Common Protocols
• Phase 2 - ITU H.Series Terminals and
  Internetworking Devices
• Phase 3 - Media Codecs

9
Phase 1

• Concentrate on Session Layer instrumentation
• Allows management development
• H.323 Common Protocols
• H.225 Q.931/Q.932
• H.225 RAS
• H.245
• RTP
• T.120?

10
Phase 2

• More complicated and more proprietary - standard
  and enterprise?
• Terminals
• Specific Types vs. Generalized A/V/D terminal
• Different transports and multiplexes
• Internetworking Devices
• Within H.323 - many ways to aggregate components
  (MC, GW, GK, MP, Proxies)
• H.320 MCUs, T.120 MCU, VOIP GW,

11
Phase 3

• Media Codecs
• Specific Types vs. Generalized Audio and Video
  Codec
• Other Management Platforms

12
Interaction with other Management Initiatives

• IETF
• Is it desirable to SG16 Q4?
• Will IETF be interested?
• Effort towards new work - SNMP V3
• Telecommunications Network Management
• X.Series
• M.Series

13
April Rapporteurs Meeting

• Detailed Proposals for all Phase 1 work
• Base on SNMP V2
• Emphasize Performance, Fault Isolation,
  Configuration
• Obtain commitments for experimental
  implementations
• Encourage standard management application
