Summary:
|
The QKDNf is expected to be able to provide optimized support for a variety of different QKD services. However, one of the challenges of the QKDNf is to assure the network performance and different QoS/QoE requirements among multi-QKDNs.
The QoS assurance for QKDN federation will provide QKDN services as same as applications want, the end-to-end QoS assurance and interoperability between transmitting and receiving QKD nodes among multi-QKDNs. To enable the QoS assurance for QKDNf, the requirements of QoS planning for QKDN federation, QoS monitoring for QKDN federation, QoS optimization for QKDN federation, QoS provisioning for QKDN federation, QoS protection and recovery for QKDN federation are needed.
This draft recommendation specifies the overview, the high-level requirements and functional requirements of QoS assurance for QKDN federation. The security considerations are also illustrated.
