IP Connectivity Provisioning Profile (CPP)
Abstract
This document describes the Connectivity Provisioning Profile (CPP)
and proposes a CPP template to capture IP/MPLS connectivity
requirements to be met within a service delivery context (e.g., Voice
over IP or IP TV). The CPP defines the set of IP transfer parameters
to be supported by the underlying transport network together with a
reachability scope and bandwidth/capacity needs. Appropriate
performance metrics, such as one-way delay or one-way delay
variation, are used to characterize an IP transfer service. Both
global and restricted reachability scopes can be captured in the CPP.
Such a generic CPP template is meant to (1) facilitate the automation
of the service negotiation and activation procedures, thus
accelerating service provisioning, (2) set (traffic) objectives of
Traffic Engineering functions and service management functions, and
(3) improve service and network management systems with 'decision-
making' capabilities based upon negotiated/offered CPPs.
