AES67 KEY OBSERVATIONS

AES67 provides interoperability at the transport layer, but the

following are out-of-scope:

1. Discovery and connection management

2. Network management & QoS

Bandwidth reservation
Time-aware switches are not strictly required (but without
them, performance cannot be guaranteed)
AES67 DISCO & CONNECTION MGMT
Connection management
SDP (Session Description Protocol)
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol, for unicast)

Discovery: excluded, but several recommendations given

ZeroConf
SAP

How to signal SDP?

RAVENNA uses ZeroConf and RTSP/http
DANTE uses SAP

Controller API?
Ember+ is a possible candidate, as well as AMWA NMOS
AES67 NETWORK MANAGEMENT
Quality of service
DiffServ w/ 3 suggested traffic classes (DSCP)
Problem: Diffserv is not automatically
configured, nor universally or consistently
implemented by switches

Network & Media Synchronization

Problem: Time-aware switches are not required,
but if not used, then performance cannot be
guaranteed

Annex C (Informative) AVB network transport

C.0 General
This standard defines how to use an IP transport to carry media data. Ethernet is a common network used to
support IP transport. AVB can be viewed as an improved Ethernet. The AVB network is described in a suite of
IEEE standards. The standards relevant to network transport are:

IEEE 802.1AB - Audio Video Bridging (AVB) Systems

IEEE 802.1Q Clause 34 - Forwarding and queuing for time-sensitive streams
IEEE 802.1Q Clause 35 - Stream Registration Protocol (SRP)

The AVB improvements can be used to improve performance of media transport. AVB improvements can also
be used to improve clock distribution, a topic which is discussed separately in annex D.

C.1 AVB network transport

Two basic methods for transmission of interoperable media streams across an AVB network are available.

Transporting interoperable media as an AVB time-sensitive stream makes use of AVB improvements with the
restriction that this method of transport must be confined to an AVB network domain and cannot exit to legacy
portions of a network that do not support the AVB improvements and thus cannot connect to non-AVB devices.

Transporting interoperable media as other traffic allows the flexibility to connect to and through AVB and
non-AVB portions of the network and to non-AVB devices. This mode of transport does not make use of

Stream Reservation Protocol (SRP) is an enhancement to Ethernet that
implements admission control.

Standardized as IEEE 802.1Qat in September 2010

Mature standard!
Incorporated into IEEE 802.1Q-2011

SRP defines the concept of streams at layer 2 of the OSI model

SRP Class A, SRP Class B and Best-Effort
This is just Ethernet: RTP Streams running over UDP/IP/Ethernet can be SRP
streams

Provides an established mechanism for end-to-end management of the

streams' resources, to guarantee Quality of Service (QoS)
SRP implements a peer-to-peer (distributed) flow control model

generate the Priority Code Point (PCP) the referenced data streams will be tagged with. It indicates
the priority EISS or ISS parameter that will be used in all frames belonging to the data stream for
which this MAD is reserving resources. This parameter determines which queue the frame is placed
into on an output Bridge Port. In accordance with 10.8.1.1 these three bits are in the most significant
