  1. Event Services and Command Services for Media Independent Handover Presentation prepared by: Srini Sreemanthula Presented by: Greg Daley, with some additions MIPSHOP IETF 64 MIPSHOP – November, 2005

  2. IEEE 802.21 Introduction • IEEE 802.21 WG defines media independent handover (MIH) services that enable handoffs from one link technology to another involving subnet changes • MIH services aid in handoff based on existing mobility management protocols • MIH services are classified as 3 types • MIH Information Services • MIH Command Services • MIH Event Services MIPSHOP – November, 2005

  3. What MIH provides • MIH service carry L2 information that is processed locally or carried to some other network node, remotely • MIH Services enable two facets of inter-technology handover • Inter-technology Network selection • Handover control MIPSHOP – November, 2005

  4. ES/CS Introduction • Event Services (ES) provide: • indications from one layer or functionality to another about changes in the connectivity state. • Remote ES convey information from one network node to another • Command Services (CS) provide: • mechanisms for controlling handovers or functions aiding handovers. • mechanisms to establish, redirect, or remove state in either the network or mobile node, so that handovers occur smoothly. • Remote CS convey information from one network node to another MIPSHOP – November, 2005

  5. Motivations • 802.21 functional definitions are to enable two scenarios • Terminal centric/controlled • Network centric/controlled MIPSHOP – November, 2005

  6. Terminal Controlled Handover • Terminal makes all the decisions of network selection and initiates HO control • Can utilizes native L2 signaling or L2/L3 MIH ES/CS and L3 IS services • Used in operator, enterprise or individual user scenarios MIPSHOP – November, 2005

  7. Network Controlled Handover • Network makes decisions of network selection in coordination with the terminal and initiates HO control • Assumption is that • network selection is in core network (beyond L2) • HO control resides where MME (common to both accesses) resides (beyond L2) • This requires that L3 MIH IS, ES and CS services are available • Important for operator models with multiple access technologies MIPSHOP – November, 2005

  8. Motivation Summary • Higher layer MIH ES/CS services provide architectural flexibility for 802.21 deployment • does not need 802.21 in certain link technologies • ES/CS are utilized for both network selection and handover control • Applicable to network entity common to both media types • Not scalable to provision these functions within subnet • Easier and faster 802.21 adoption in other SDO e.g. 3GPP • Can coexist or share functions with MIH ES/CS at L2 MIPSHOP – November, 2005

  13. Remote ES/CS Feasibility • Discussion relevant due to: • Adoba, B., "Architectural Implications of Link Indications draft-iab-link-indications-03.txt", June 2005. • Explicit signaling required • Intertechnology handover may not result in IP subnet change • Mitigation of security issues • Trust issues • Mapping of identifiers • Done at the UE MIPSHOP – November, 2005

  14. Explicit Signalling • Command and event signalling • Implicit signalling possible • when path changes or link-aware routing metrics from access network • Explicit signaling required • Intertechnology handover may not result in IP subnet change • May inform devices of mobility management issues which aren’t apparent in the current access net • Needs safeguards to ensure damping/robustness MIPSHOP – November, 2005

  16. ES/CS Higher Layer Requirements • Work is similar to IS higher layer MIIS for • Identifying usage scenarios • Provisioning models e.g. proxy and direct • Finalizing ES/CS MIH functionality • Message sequences, message types, data elements associated with each message • Other higher layer requirement categories • Transport Layer • Discovery • Registration and Deregistration • Capability negotiation • Security • Reliability and failure recovery MIPSHOP – November, 2005
