Resource control protocol No. 4 (rcp4) – Protocols at the Rc interface between a transport resource control physical entity and a transport physical entity: SNMP alternative (Study Group 11)
Recommendation ITU-T Q.3304.2 specifies the profile of a variant of the resource control protocol No.4 (rcp4) that uses the simple network management protocol (SNMP) at the Rc interface,i.e.,between the transport resource control physical entity (TRC-PE) and the transport physical entity (T-PE) in the resource and admission control functional block.This protocol operates across the Rc reference point,as defined in Recommendation ITU-T Y.2111.The interface is used for checking the network topology and resource status information of an access or a core network.
