1. ABSTRACT
This memo defines an initial application of classical IP and ARP in
an IEEE 802.14 Community Access Television (CATV) Residential Access
Network environment. IEEE 802.14 services provide two independent
link layer service interfaces which are available to support IP
residential access networking services: traditional Ethernet bridging
(via IEEE 802.1D layer services) and residential ATM networking
services.
In this memo, the term Logical IP Subnetwork (LIS) is defined to
apply to Classical IP over ATM LIS's operating over IEEE 802.14
services as well as traditional IP over Ethernet operating over IEEE
802.14 services.
The recommendations in this draft rely on existing IETF standards for
the family of Classical IP and ARP over ATM (IPOA) services and for
IP and ARP over Broadcast Ethernet networks. The tree-based
hierarchic nature of the IEEE 802.14 MAC subnetwork permits
convenient extensions to Classical IPOA model for broadcast and
multicast in the downstream direction of the CATV plant.

open issues list.
3. CONVENTIONS
The following language conventions are used in the items of
specification in this document:
o MUST, SHALL, or MANDATORY -- the item is an absolute requirement
of the specification.
o SHOULD or RECOMMEND -- this item should generally be followed for
all but exceptional circumstances.
o MAY or OPTIONAL -- the item is truly optional and may be followed
or ignored according to the needs of the implementor.
4. INTRODUCTION
The goal of this specification is to allow compatible and
interoperable implementations of Logical IP Subnetworks over IEEE
802.14 services [20], including the transmission of IP datagrams and
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) requests (ARP or ATMARP) and
replies.
This memo specifies the default operational model which will always
be available in IP over IEEE 802.14 implementations. Subsequent memos
will build upon and refine this model, however, in the absence or
failure of those extensions, operations will default to the
specifications contained in this memo. Consequently, this memo will
not reference these other extensions.
The IEEE 802.14 subnetwork consists of a Head-end Controller (HC) and
one or more stations (ST). The HC and each station are 802.14
entities. The HC is responsible for all aspects of packet processing,
resource sharing, and management of the 802.14 Media Access Control
(MAC) and Physical (PHY) functions. A station is essentially a slave
of the HC.
The organization of the HC to each station is a strict rooted
hierarchy: i.e., it is a two-level tree where the HC is the root and
stations are the children. In the downstream direction, a 802.14 MAC
Protocol Data Unit (PDU) may be sent to an individual station
(unicast) or a group of stations (multicast and broadcast). In the
upstream direction, all MAC PDUs (individual or group addressed) are
sent from the station to the HC. The HC is active and originates and
terminates all upstream MAC PDU flows; that is, the HC processes the
MAC PDUs and does not merely repeat upstream MAC PDUs back on the
Laubach [Page 3]
DRAFT Logical IP Subnetworks over IEEE 802.14 Services August 1997
downstream for station to station communication. The HC MAC layer
service function determines whether information will be forwarded
back on the downstream; e.g. similar to Ethernet bridge forwarding
behavior.
The specific format of the IEEE 802.14 MAC PDU is transparent to
higher level services, e.g. IP datagrams, and therefore not of
specific interest to this draft. However, it is useful to note that
IEEE 802.14 HC and ST entities support an ATM format MAC PDU mode by
default, with an optional variable length MAC PDU mode. The choice
of MAC PDU is vendor and then operator specified. The IEEE 802.14 MAC
PDU is not presented to the IP layer. For the purposes of protocol
specification, IP may only access IEEE 802.14 services via one or two
layer service interfaces: the ATM cell-based service interface or the
802.2 (LLC) / 802.1D (bridge) MAC frame interface, hereafter called
the Ethernet interface or Ethernet frame interface. The selection of
ATM cell MAC PDU mode or variable MAC PDU mode transparent to the
Ethernet frame interface.
Note: the term Ethernet interface is meant to convey that a frame
based packet interface exists for the transmission of IP datagrams
and ARP packets via the IEEE 802.14 link services. The use of this
term does not imply at this time that IEEE 802.14 provides an
emulated Ethernet service between all stations, and between all
stations and the HC.
The IEEE 802.14 system employs a DES based link security system
between the HC and all stations to protect the confidentiality of
communications over the RF channels. The specific mechanisms are
beyond the scope of this memo, however it should be noted that 1) the
security system is transparent to any higher layer protocol (i.e.
IP, ATM, MPEG), 2) the security system does not preclude the use of
IPSEC methods for providing additional security for residential IP,
3) each MAC point-to-point connection is managed using different keys
making it difficult to snoop on another station's unicast MAC
traffic, and 4) each MAC point-to-multipoint connection is managed
using different keys (stations only have keys for the MAC multicast
groups of which they are a member).
The IEEE 802.14 system enables comprehensive traffic management
support and Quality of Service (QoS) support for ATM networking
purpose. As such, these mechanisms can be exploited to provide for
IP integrated services support.
The IEEE 802.14 system will provide support of IEEE802.1D/p, with
future support for IEEE802.1/Q Virtual LAN (VLAN) extensions. As
such, these mechanisms can be exploited for IP integrated services
support.
Laubach [Page 4]
DRAFT Logical IP Subnetworks over IEEE 802.14 Services August 1997
The characteristics for residential LISs using IEEE 802.14 ATM cell-
based service interface are:
o RFC1577, RFC1626, and RFC1755 provide default IP over ATM LIS
services.
o Other IETF standards can be used to extend these services; e..g
MARS, integrated services over ATM, etc.
o More than one LIS may be in operation over the same 802.14
subnetwork (MAC domain) .
o An IEEE 802.14 station may be a member of more than one LIS.
o Layer management services are available to the ATM layer for the
purposes of managing point-to-point services on the downstream
and upstream, and point-to-multipoint services on the downstream.
o Layer management services are available to the ATM layer for
traffic management and Quality of Service (QoS) control.
o An IP router/gateway function may be colocated at the HC, e.g.
in the case of an IEEE 802.14 "port card" in an IP router; or the
router/gateway may be connected via an ATM network to the HC.
This specification will not preclude either scenario.
The characteristics for residential LISs using IEEE 802.14 Ethernet
frame service interface are:
o Supports default IP and ARP over Ethernet services.
o Other IETF standards can be used to extend these services; e..g
integrated services over 802.1D/p/Q.
o More than one LIS may be in operation over the same 802.14
subnetwork (MAC domain) .
o An IEEE 802.14 station may be a member of more than one LIS.
o Layer management services are available to the frame service
layer for the purposes of managing point-to-point services on the
downstream and upstream, and point-to-multipoint services on the
downstream.
o Layer management services are available to the frame service
layer for traffic management and Quality of Service (QoS)
control.

DRAFT Logical IP Subnetworks over IEEE 802.14 Services August 1997
The scope of this specification covers implementation,
interoperability, and operational extension issues for delivering
Logical IP Subnetwork services via a residential access network
implemented via the IEEE 802.14 standard. Due to the flexibility
provided by the IEEE 802.14 system features, other IETF standards
will be relied on when appropriate to do so. For example the ATM
nature of the IEEE 802.14 system suggests that the existing IETF
classical IP over ATM family of specifications will apply in general,
with specific differences outlined in this memo for reasons of
operational efficiency or general IP over Cable Data Network issues.
For the purposes of this memo, the IEEE 802.14 subnetwork is intended
to support residential Logical IP Subnetwork services. This
specification does not preclude the operation of other multiple non-
IP services which may be in simultaneous service over the IEEE 802.14
subnetwork: e.g., voice or video integrated services.
5. IP SUBNETWORK CONFIGURATION
5.1 Background
The IEEE 802.14 subnetwork can support multiple simultaneously
operating disjoint LISs over the same MAC domain. For each LIS a
separate administrative entity configures its hosts and routers
within the LIS. Each LIS operates and communicates independently of
other LISs on the same IEEE 802.14 network.
In the classical model, hosts communicate directly via IEEE 802.14 to
other hosts within the same LIS using the appropriate address
resolution service. In the case of the Ethernet frame service, the
ARP service is the mechanism for resolving target IP addresses to
target 48-bit IEEE MAC addresses. In the case of the ATM service, the
ATMARP service is the mechanism for resolving target IP addresses to
target ATM endpoint addresses.
As LISs are independent, inter-LIS protocol translation or address
resolution conversion services are beyond the scope of this memo.
Communication to hosts located outside of a LIS is provided via an IP
router.
The scope of an Ethernet LIS can span beyond an individual IEEE
802.14 subnetwork using traditional frame-based bridging; e.g., IEEE
802.1D transparent bridging services.
The scope of an ATM LIS can span beyond an individual IEEE 802.14
subnetwork using conventional ATM networking.
Laubach [Page 6]
DRAFT Logical IP Subnetworks over IEEE 802.14 Services August 1997
5.2 Residential LIS Configuration Requirements
The requirements for IP members (hosts, routers) operating in an
IEEE 802.14-based LIS are:
o All members of the LIS MUST have the same IP network/subnet
number and address mask [8].
o All members within a ATM cell-based LIS are directly connected to
the IEEE 802.14 subnetwork or to an ATM network connected to the
IEEE 802.14 subnetwork.
o All members within an Ethernet based LIS are directly connected
to the IEEE 802.14 subnetwork or to an IEEE 802.1 bridged network
communicating with the IEEE 802.14 subnetwork.
o All members of a LIS MUST have a mechanism for resolving IP
addresses to link addresses (ARP or ATMARP).
o All members of a LIS MUST have a mechanism for resolving link
addresses to IP addresses via an inverse address resolution
protocol (InARP or InATMARP).
o All LIS members connected to the IEEE 802.14 subnetwork via an
IEEE 802.14 station MUST be able to communicate via the IEEE
802.14 subnetwork to or beyond the IEEE 802.14 HC. By default,
the IEEE 802.14 HC optionally SHOULD not forward upstream
communications from one station to another downstream station in
the LIS; in this case, an IP router attached to or colocated with
the HC should provide the forwarding from upstream to downstream.
o All LIS members connected to the IEEE 802.14 subnetwork via an
IEEE 802.14 HC MUST be able to communicate via the IEEE 802.14
subnetwork to or beyond any downstream IEEE 802.14 station in the
LIS.
o A LIS MAY span more than one IEEE 802.14 subnetwork. In the case
of frame based, conventional Layer 2 bridging/switching MAY
interconnect more than one HC. In the case of ATM based, a
backend ATM network MAY interconnect more than one HC.
5.3 LIS Router Additional Configuration
Routers providing LIS functionality over the IEEE 802.14 subnetwork
MAY also support the ability to interconnect multiple LISs. Routers
that wish to provide interconnection of differing LISs MUST be able
to support multiple sets of parameters (one set for each connected
LIS) and be able to associate each set of parameters to a specific IP
Laubach [Page 7]
DRAFT Logical IP Subnetworks over IEEE 802.14 Services August 1997
network/subnet number. In addition, a router MAY be able to provide
this multiple LIS support with a single physical IEEE802.14 interface
with a different link address per LIS.
6. IP PACKET FORMAT
Implementations built using the IEEE 802.14 Ethernet frame layer
services MUST support IP over Ethernet as described in [21]. The MTU
of this interface is 1500 octets.
Implementations built using the IEEE 802.14 ATM cell based layer
services MUST support IEEE 802.2 LLC/SNAP encapsulation as described
in [2]. LLC/SNAP encapsulation is the default packet format for IP
datagrams running via IP over ATM networks. The default MTU of this
interface is 9180 octets. This memo recognizes that end-to-end
signaling within ATM may allow negotiation of encapsulation method or
MTU on a per-VC basis.
7. IP BROADCAST ADDRESS
The IEEE 802.14 downstream MAC PDU supports point-to-multipoint
addressing. For each LIS, the IP layer service support at the IEEE
802.14 HC MUST create a single downstream point-to-multipoint group
whose membership contains all IEEE 802.14 station participating in
that LIS. By default, all downstream IP datagrams whose destination
address specifies one of the four forms of IP broadcast addresses
(limited, directed, subnet directed, or all-subnets directed) [8] or
an IP multicast address MUST be sent to members of the LIS using this
MAC address group.
Note: By default, all upstream IP datagrams are sent from the IEEE
802.14 station to the HC on the single point-to-point connection.
Note: the above defaults do not preclude the use of additional
downstream point-to-point or point-to-multipoint, or additional
upstream point-to-point connections for handling of specific IP flows
for integrated-services or multicast distribution support; e.g.,
mapping IP flows to specific additional connections.
In general, it is preferred that downstream data bandwidth resources
be used in an efficient manner. Therefore, IP over IEEE802.14
implementations SHOULD only send one copy of a packet downstream per
IP broadcast transmission or IP multicast transmission.
Laubach [Page 8]
DRAFT Logical IP Subnetworks over IEEE 802.14 Services August 1997
8. IP MULTICAST ADDRESS
The IEEE 802.14 downstream MAC service supports point-to-multipoint
addressing. MAC point-to-multipoint addresses can span LISs.
For efficiency reasons, a separate point-to-multipoint group MAY be
used to support downstream IP multicast datagram distribution. The
specific implementation is beyond the scope of this memo, however it
can be noted that single or multiple IP multicast groups MAY be
mapped to a MAC point-to-multipoint group subject to the abilities of
the IEEE 802.14 HC and participating stations.
Note: By default, all upstream IP datagrams are sent from the IEEE
802.14 station to the HC on the single point-to-point connection.
Note: the above defaults do not preclude the use of additional
downstream point-to-multipoint or additional upstream point-to-point
connections for handling of specific IP flows for integrated-services
or multicast distribution support; e.g., mapping IP flows to specific
additional connections.
It is preferred that downstream data bandwidth resources be used in
an efficient manner, therefore IP over IEEE 802.14 implementations
MUST only send one copy of a packet downstream per IP multicast
transmission. Specially, MAC point-to-multipoint groups used for IP
multicast datagram distribution may span LISs.
For example, there may be two LISs operating via an IEEE 802.14
subnetwork, LIS-1 and LIS-2. LIS1 may have station members ST-A, ST-
B, and ST-C. and LIS-2 may have station members ST-X, ST-Y, and ST-Z.
The Ethernet layer management services at the HC would have created
two point-to-multipoint groups PTM-1 and PTM-2 used for default
downstream broadcast and multicast transmission. The membership of
PTM-1 would be ST-A, ST-B, and ST-C. The membership of PTM-2 would
be ST-X, ST-Y, ST-Z. There may be another point-to-multipoint group
for distributing a specific IP multicast group, call this PTM-3. The
members of PTM-3 might be ST-B, ST-C, and ST-X therefore PTM-3 spans
LIS-1 and LIS-2.
The coupling of the IEEE 802.14 layer management services responsible
for group management with that of IP Internet Group Management
Protocol (IGMP) is TBD.
9. IP INTEGRATED SERVICES SPPORT
By default, the IEEE 802.14 service delivers IP traffic on a best
effort basis.
Laubach [Page 9]
DRAFT Logical IP Subnetworks over IEEE 802.14 Services August 1997
The underlying protocol of IEEE 802.14 is designed to support the ATM
service classes: Constant Bit Rate (CBR), real-time Variable Bit Rate
(rt-VBR), non-real-time Variable Bit Rate (nrt-VBR), Available Bit
Rate (ABR), and Unspecified Bit Rate (UBR), and their associated
Quality of Service requirements (delay, delay tolerance, cell loss
rate) subject to the characteristics of the downstream and upstream
channel rates. Mappings from IP integrated services to IP over ATM
can be exploited to provide traffic management and Quality of Service
(QoS) on a per IP flow basis, for unicast and multicast traffic. As
such, these capabilities are available for ATM cell-based access as
well as Ethernet frame mode access. Specifications for the support
of integrated services and RSVP over IEEE 802.14 are TBD.
10. FILTERING
The IEEE 802.14 system does not preclude the use of filtering for IP
and ARP protocol packets. Such filtering is TBD.
The IEEE 802.14 system permits filters to be placed in the upstream
and downstream at the ST and the HC and independently for point-to-
point and point-to-multipoint connections. In addition, filters may
be placed at the HC in the service function responsible for
forwarding packets from upstream to downstream. Such use of these
facilities is TBD.
11. Station Requirements
The IP over IEEE 802.14 station MUST be able to separately and
simultaneously reassemble or reconstruct packets for each point-to-
point or point-to-multipoint downstream connection being used for IP
LIS or IP Multicast services.
By default, all unicast, broadcast, and multicast communications from
an IP over IEEE802.14 station MUST be sent using the point-to-point
connection to the IEEE 802.14 HC. It is noted that the default
behavior MAY be modified in the future by providing additional
connections for IP traffic from the IEEE 802.14 station to the IEEE
802.14 HC.
Specifications for optional LIS forwarding requirements are TBD.
12. SECURITY
TBD.
Laubach [Page 10]
DRAFT Logical IP Subnetworks over IEEE 802.14 Services August 1997
13. MIB SPECIFICATION
The IEEE 802.14 MIB is TBD.
14. OPEN ISSUES
o ATM signaling support by IEEE 802.14 and specific HC
functionality in support of IP will be mentioned in a future
revision of this memo.
o IEEE 802.1D/p and Q extensions, including GARP will be mentioned
in a future revision of this memo.
o RSVP coupling to IEEE 802.14 layer management is TBD.
o IGMP coupling to IEEE 802.14 layer management is TBD.
o IETF Integrated Services support by IEEE 802.14 is TBD.
o It is ambiguous about whether IP members must be connected via
ATM mode or Ethernet mode. 802.14 will support either mode.
Also, whether a mixture of 802.14 capable LIS members and
bridged/switched connected LIS members is allowed on a HC or all
stations must be of one type or the other.
o The HC forwarding option results in routing intra-LIS. What
about subnet-directed broadcasts (blocked)? ARPs? Will the
headend proxy ARP for all stations? If the stations are members
of the same LIS, then they will try to talk directly and their
packets will have to be forced to the router (in frame mode, have
the headend proxy ARP for with the router's MAC for any LIS
members that are not local to that station). What about ATMARP
issues? ICMP redirects should be disabled from the router. Are
we assuming that members of an LIS may just be under the same
administrative control, and not not necessarily "friendly"? Like
an ISP subnet? This does give the administrator some extra
protection.
o In frame mode, what about multicast? Unicast packets sent to the
router will be routed back to the destination station, but
multicast assumes all stations can hear each other? Without a
specific broadcast facility upstream, do we have to build one for
multicast: receive multicast group membership, facilitate group
access control and forward multicast back downstream based on
this info? Or does 802.14 address this? For ATM mode would
something like MARS be needed?
What about NHRP (as opposed to ATM ARP)?

From Scott Brim:
The head end needs to be intelligent enough to do various
filtering at the PDU (not cell) level. Regardless of whether
it's used the code needs to be in there. This brings up two
questions -- tell me if I read it right:
* doesn't forwarding cells to the outside world (beyond the head
end) conflict with having frame-level intelligence? That is,
does the head end have to accumulate cells and reassemble frames
even if it's forwarding cells to the outside world (under any
conditions)?
* I can't tell if the head end is recommended to do IP forwarding
within the 802.14 LIS (there are 2 conflicting statements) but if
it doesn't, it still needs all the intelligence to examine
packets. Seems like a waste. Why isn't the head end either dumb
or smart?
