Page 11ETS 300 383: January 1995regime: A set of protocol phases; a regime is a continuous period of time. A regime is established byusing a confirmed or optionally confirmed service and it is orderly terminated using a confirmed service, itmay also be interrupted in an abnormal manner. A regime is fully defined by specifying the service(s) usedto establish it and the service (s) used to terminate it. A regime is used in this description to limit the rangeof some services which may only be available during a particular regime.remote files: Files from the correspondent.single base facility: Mandatory facility, working on a single filestore of the remote terminal.single directory: List of file names in ETS 300 075 [1] format.static configuration: Configuration of the network connection parameters and ETS 300 075 [1]parameters.transfer name: File name that is unique and not dependent on local file management systems.4AbbreviationsFor the purposes of this ETS, the following abbreviations apply:DUData UnitEIUFEuropean ISDN Users ForumFCSFile Check SumFTAMFile Transfer Access & ManagementIMCCISDN Management and Co-ordination CommitteeIMIMGISDN MOU Implementation and Management GroupImpl.Implicity coded parameterISDNIntegrated Services Digital NetworkLANLocal Area NetworkMand.Mandatory parameterMand.

Page 12ETS 300 383: January 19957EUROFILE transfer teleservice7.1GeneralThe service specified by this ETS is called EUROFILE.EUROFILE is an ISDN teleservice, in which end-to-end compatibility between terminals is guaranteed andwhich supports file exchanges between different types of equipment.End-to-end compatibility is one of the major objectives for EUROFILE.Files are exchanged over one single B-channel at a rate of 64 kbit/s.The dialogue between the two systems is based on the following ETSs:-ETS 300 080 [3] (relating to the use of lower layers protocols);-ETS 300 079 [2] (end-to-end protocol);-ETS 300 075 [1] (Data file transfer).This ETS specifies the profile of these ETSs and indicates the parameter choices that shall be made forthe EUROFILE protocol and encoding system.The rules applicable to the files shall follow those defined for the transferable files of telesoftwareapplication in ETS 300 075 [1].NOTE:The files have common rules for the naming as they are accessed by their transfername, which is unique. This provides file independence compared with the various filemanagement systems available and enables different file management systems tounderstand each other.The lower layer configuration is defined in such a way that interoperability is provided between the twosystems without configuration adjustment.7.1.1General functions providedThe mandatory specificationned in this ETS define the minimum service which shall be provided by anyproduct which claims to be a EUROFILE prs contaioduct (see NOTE).EUROFILE provides a service for interactive communications and an optional minimum set offunctions for automatic communications.The file functions implemented during a connection between two users are based on three basicfunctions, i.e. file save, the file lists (both remote and local), and file load and include, optionally, a filedelete function and file rename function (both remote and local).EUROFILE also covers the definition of Management functions such as Configuration, an AccessControl List, a Correspondent PhoneBook and a LogBook.SIST ETS 300 383 E1:2003

PhoneBookAccess Control ListConfigurationMANAGEMENT FUNCTIONSFILE SERVICESCOMMUNICATION MODERemote operationsLocal operationsListDeleteRenameOptional facilities and functions are in italic.Figure 1: EUROFILE minimum servicesAs a default service, any incoming call shall always be reported to, and handled by, the application.Incoming calls may be refused or accepted according to the configuration and the exchanges in progress.The EUROFILE application, in particular, shall always accept or reject calls once the communication is inprogress. An answer to an incoming call (SBV_Establish_Indication of ETS 300 079 [2]) shall always beprovided.NOTE:However, EUROFILE products may also provide additional functions compliant withETS 300 075 [1]. Such additional functions are outside the scope of this ETS.7.1.2Functions available in the interactive communication modeA call is established between two end systems, one operating as a caller and the other as a called party.The interactive communication mode requires, on the caller side, the presence of the user.The called party does not necessarily require the user to be present.The caller shall establish the call. It has an active role, i.e. it acts as the master. The caller is the onewho requests file functions.The called party is waiting for calls and file functions. It has a passive role, i.e. it acts as the slave.The Master has access, as an initiator, to the following file functions:-save, load, list and (optionally) delete, rename;and also to the following functions:-file transfer abort, communication abort and (optionally) navigation, message.The slave has access, as an initiator, to the following functions:-file transfer abort, communication abort and (optionally) message.SIST ETS 300 383 E1:2003



Page 14ETS 300 383: January 19957.1.3Functions available in the automatic communication modeWithin this mode the caller shall communicate automatically and shall not require the presence of theuser.Terminals supporting this mode shall also support the recovery mechanism (see ETS 300 075 [1],subclause 4.1.2.4.2).This mode shall be used to define a complete communication session in advance.Automatic communication mode allows the manipulation (i.e. Create and Delete.) of automatic sessions.An automatic session contains:-a list of correspondents;-a list of functions (save, load, file list) and the associated files (files being selected withcriteria to select a subset of the filestore);-a date and time of execution (relative or real).The other Delete File and Rename File functions are optional.The automatic sessions may be initiated immediately or at a later time.The service shall provide an optional presentation file associated with the files transmitted to provideinformation on the files (Group B file as defined in the telesoftware application by ETS 300 075 [1]).Presentation files associated with the files loaded or saved, if used, and the service for consultation ofthese files, shall be used to add presentation information to these files.Specific mechanisms shall be included in the application to recover from failure or incident during anoperation or a call. These mechanisms shall be described in the configuration files as:-maximum number of possible retries for an unsuccessful communication session;-maximum number of possible retries for an unsuccessful call;-delay between two retries;-use of Recovery;-date and time of execution.This list is not exhaustive.These events shall not block the operation, for any reason.7.1.4File functionsThe file functions shall be accessible when the access regime is established (see ETS 300 075 [1]).The minimum basic file functions between a caller and a called party which shall be supported are:-save a file;-access to the remote simple file directory;-load a file;-file transfer abort;-access to the local list of files.Optionally, the file functions supported are:-delete a remote file;-rename a remote file;-navigation commands;-access to an extended file directory, which contains detailed data relating to the files;-delete a local file;-rename a local file.SIST ETS 300 383 E1:2003
