Home Networking activities in TTC KENJI KORO TTC Next-Generation Home Network system WG Global Standards Collaboration (GSC) GSC-15
Highlight of Current Activities • Standardization about Home Networking (HN) in Japan • Now on 2nd stage of standardization • QoS, Data Model: Investigated several existing recommendations • Control and Operation: Standardized Home-network Topology Identifying Protocol (JJ-300.00) • Research: Applications realized in NGN • New SWG started to standardize the network middleware for the communication between access gateway and home terminals. • Plan to submit proposal to ITU-T SG15, SG16,etc. • Cooperation with the related SDOs and Fora • ITU-T, HGI, BB-Forum, DLNA, UPnP, etc. • Cooperation in Japan • New Generation Network Promotion Forum in Japan: • IP network WG: Research technical demands • HATS[1] in Japan • Tested NAT Traversal function between network and home equipment. Note[1]: http://www.ciaj.or.jp/hats/e/what/about.html
Strategic Direction • Architectures and PHYhave been proposed by several bodies such as ITU and Fora. • But there are no consistent suite of Recommendations from WAN to HN dealing with the following items. • Maintenance (In case of the problems or failure has occurred) • Device setting • Device composition confirmation • There are many types of end terminal and network equipment. • For the management of home device, certain device lists will be required.
Challenges • Confirm interoperability of Control and Operation: Standardized Home-network Topology Identifying Protocol (JJ-300.00) • Standardization of device information list in HN • Standardization of JT-G9960 (Based on G.hn: G.9960) in Japan suitable forJapanese network environments. • Cooperation items with other standardizationbodies • Data models • Appliance device control (TV etc.)
Next Steps/Actions • TTC will conduct the network middleware for the communication between access gateway and home terminals. • Examination and standardization of sharing of Interface to achieve service on service platform. • Service platform for several Applications. (DLNA, ECHONET…)
Activity of Japan R&D Standaization Develop or confirm several application and technology about Home network. • Management and maintenance technology • Easy connection to home network • Energy consumption control • UP/ Down stream to related Standardization committee • Specify the detail items about home network TTC Next Generation Home Network WG Next Generation IP Network Promotion Forum New Generation Network Promotion Forum HATS Interconnection Confirm the interoperability between several home equipments and Service Providers including network.
NAT: Network Address Translation UPnP: Universal Plug and Play IGD: Internet Gateway Device Tested NAT Traversal function between network and home equipment • NAT Traversal (UPnP-IGD): IGD (Internet Gateway Device) of UPnP is one of the methods of NAT Traversal. Verification tool (PC: Software) Services UPnP(Universal Plug and Play) Internet NAT Traversal (UPnP-IGD) Each company IGD(s) (SOHO router etc.) Home Terminals Verification tool (PC: Software) VoIP Video Contents
Scope of Control and Operation: Standardized Home-network Topology Identifying Protocol (JJ-300.00) • This figure shows the control and operation in HN. AGW: Access Gate WAY PC note wifi port ISP ASP Support Center NW Visible composition image Such as Layer2 AGW port4 port1 port2 DVD recorder End Terminal • Information necessary for visible Layer2 composition • Terminal Information • Maker name, Model name, Model number • Connected route information • Network Type, Port number port6 port3 Network Equipment TV port4 SONY PS3 Nintendo Wii Range of examination of standardization User Operations Far end services Grasp of connected equipment/composition Connected confirmation Maintenance (In case of the problems or failure has occurred) Quality measurement, confirmation Device setting First Target
Detail information of Control and Operation: Standardized Home-network Topology Identifying Protocol (JJ-300.00) In Manager, the block diagram of home Network is made by Home-network Topology Identifying Protocol (HTIP) that combined UPnP with LLDP. • Division: <htip:X_DeviceCategory>(Newly defined, see next slide) • Manufacturer code: <htip:X_ManufacturerOUI>(Newly defined) • Model name:<modelName> • Model number:<modelNumber> Network Equipment End Terminal agent Network Equipment agent End Terminal agent End Terminal Device information by end terminal agent Manager End Terminal Home Network composition information is specified from information on Agent in Manager.
