Which priority you suggest for everyday 911 calls as > opposed to normal telephone calls? mlpp-that-works is not a 911 solution; 911 is about providing a service in which an arbitrary user goes to a special peer. MLPP (and GETS) are about a special user going to a peer of its choosing and getting priority service - and about the peer getting priority service while communicating with the MLPP-special user. > I believe the priorities are below > > The DSN has 5 precedence levels of IEPS in descending order: > > dsn.flash-override > dsn.flash > dsn.immediate > dsn.priority > dsn.routine that is true in the DSN for MLPP service. There are other networks, such as GETS which uses the same names but has two levels, the DRSN which has six levels, and ADNS which has seven. GSM allows for 15. > 2.

In the circuit switch network, MLPP/GETS is about getting a circuit. There is nothing special about the circuit - it is the same as any other circuit. The question is whether you get one or someone else does, and MLPP/GETS makes it so that you get one. Ditto ATM - what is the marking in the ATM cell for a VC assigned in a priority manner? In the PSTN and the ATM networks, this is all in call control. Having done it in call control, there is no need to do anything in the data plane. Why should IP be different? And note the security issue with putting it in the data plane. If you build a superhighway for script kiddies, they will come. You will still have to authenticate and authorize the use of the special DSCP. So the DSCP doesn't do away with the need for call signaling seen by the network. You can gratuitously dump mechanisms in to your heart's content. But if you don't need them, why? Note RFC 1958 and 3439's comments on simplicity and elegance of design. Note RFC 2804's assertion that the the random complexity of traditional LI solutions being the best reason to not deploy them. I'd really like an answer. > 3. Not trying to simplify things but premise of this proposal is that > all IP phones will support RSVP, right? no. Only the ones you want to provide an emergency service to. But it would be simpler and more reliable if they all did. There are two ways to manage the service at the data layer. You are going to have to have an ACL that ensures that only authorized users get to use the magic DSCP, or if you simply use EF you will need an ACL that ensures that losses, if they come, come from unauthorized users. > 4.
