A SIP Load Control Event Package draft-shen-sipping-load-control-event-package-00.txt Charles Shen, Henning Schulzrinne, Arata Koike IETF 72, Dublin Ireland July 28
Motivation: Throttle only Selected Calls When Possible Legitimate short-term load spike Viewer-voting TV shows or ticket giveaways Special holidays such as New Year's Day and Mother's Day Natural disaster areas such as those affected by earthquakes Malicious attack caused overload Denial-of-Service attacks Only calls causing overload should be throttled 2019/1/14
Motivation: Current Feedback-based Control Proposal Insufficient Feedback-based overload control is reactive affects signaling messages already issued ineffective for edge-server overload, e.g., ticket giveaway 2019/1/14
Requirements for Filter-based Load Control Complements feedback-based mechanisms Prevents calls as close to the user agent client as possible Efficient and scalable filter distribution mechanism Re-uses existing SIP protocol mechanisms when possible Distribute filter in advance when overload situation is predictable Flexible filter identity caller/callee, single/groups, SIP/tel URLs Extensibility for future needs 2019/1/14
Solution Define Load-Control Event Package for SIP based on SIP-Specific Event Notification [RFC3265] Define Load-Control XML document for SIP extended Common-Policy: A Document Format for Expressing Privacy Preferences [RFC4745] SIP entities subscribe to load-control package from SIP signaling peers Load-control event notifications distributed as widely as possible Enforce filter policies as specified 2019/1/14
Example: Filter Hotline 212-555-1234 from 9am-12pm, 2008-7-28 2019/1/14
