EN 300 403-3 V1.2.2 (1998-04)6IntroductionTo evaluate conformance of a particular implementation, it is necessary to have a statement of which capabilities andoptions have been implemented for a given Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) protocol. Such a statement is called aProtocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS).EN 300 403-1 is derived from ITU-T Recommendation Q.931 (1993). However, no PICS proforma exists for thisRecommendation. Therefore, ETSI has created a PICS proforma that is specific to the European environment. ThisPICS proforma reflects the requirements contained in ITU-T Recommendation Q.931 with the modifications applied byEN 300 403-1. This has been done to assist understanding of how the European requirements relate to the requirementscontained within ITU-T Recommendation Q.931 (and in particular, to the options specified in ITU-T RecommendationQ.931 that are selected by EN 300 403-1). In practical terms, this means that a number of capabilities specified byITU-T Recommendation Q.931 appear as items in this PICS proforma with a status more akin to the status that would beexpected in a profile ICS (i.e. out-of-scope (I), prohibited (X)).Annex B of the present document describes the differences between the proforma contained in annex A and theproforma for the earlier version of the DSS1 protocol as specified in ETS 300 102-1 (1990).SIST EN 300 403-3 V1.2.2:2005

EN 300 403-3 V1.2.2 (1998-04)9Annex A (normative):PICS proforma for EN 300 403-1 and ETS 300 403-2Notwithstanding the provisions of the copyright clause related to the text of the present document, ETSI grants that usersof the present document may freely reproduce the PICS proforma in this annex so that it can be used for its intendedpurposes and may further publish the completed PICS.A.1Guidance for completing the PICS proformaA.1.1Purpose and structureThe purpose of this PICS proforma is to provide a mechanism whereby a supplier of an implementation of therequirements defined in EN 300 403-1 [1] and ETS 300 403-2 [2] may provide information in a standardized manner.The PICS proforma is subdivided into clauses as follows:- guidance for completing the various parts of the PICS proforma;- identification of the implementation;- identification of the protocol to which this PICS proforma applies;- global statement of conformance;- questions to determine roles;- questions for the user role; and- questions for the network role.A.1.2Symbols, abbreviations and conventionsThe PICS proforma contained in this annex is comprised of information in tabular form in accordance with theguidelines presented in ISO/IEC 9646-7 [4].Item columnThe item column contains a unique reference (a mnemonic plus a number) for each item within the PICS proforma.NOTE:Where possible, backwards compatibility has been maintained between the item references used in thisPICS proforma and those used in the PICS proforma for the earlier version of the DSS1 protocoldescribed in ETS 300 102-1.In general, the same mnemonics have been used in this PICS proforma as in earlier proforma. An additional lower caseletter has been added to differentiate PICS items related to the user role (e.g. MCu) and PICS items related to thenetwork role (e.g. MCn). In earlier PICS proforma both these cases were identified by the same mnemonic (e.g. MC).A further consequence of maintaining backwards compatibility is the appearance of discontinuities in the numeric partof the item reference. There are, for example, PICS items listed as messages transmitted by the network with thereferences "MTn 2" and "MTn 4"; the reference between, "MTn 3" is not used.Item description columnThe item description contains a brief summary of the static requirement for which a support answer is required.SIST EN 300 403-3 V1.2.2:2005
EN 300 403-3 V1.2.2 (1998-04)10Conditions for status columnThe conditions for status column contains a specification, if appropriate, of the predicate upon which a conditional statusis based.Status columnThe following notations, defined in ISO/IEC 9646-7 [4], are used for the status column:NOTE:To support a capability means that the capability is implemented in conformance to EN 300 403-1 [1] andETS 300 403-2 [2].IIrrelevant or out-of-scope - this capability is outside the scope of the ETS to which this PICSproforma applies and is not subject to conformance testing in this context.MMandatory - the capability is required to be supported.N/ANot Applicable - in the given context, it is impossible to use the capability. No answer in thesupport column is required.OOptional - the capability may be supported or not.O.iqualified optional - for mutually exclusive or selectable options from a set. "i" is an integer thatidentifies an unique group of related optional items and the logic of their selection, defined belowthe table.XeXcluded or prohibited - there is a requirement not to use this capability in a given context.Reference columnExcept where explicitly stated, the reference column refers to the appropriate parts of EN 300 403-1 [1] describing theparticular item. Note, however, that a reference merely indicates the place where the core of a description of an item canbe found. Any additional information contained in EN 300 403-1 [1] and ETS 300 403-2 [2] has to be taken intoaccount when making a statement about the conformance of that particular item.Support columnThe following notation, defined in ISO/IEC 9646-7 [4], is used for the support column:[ ] Yes [ ] NoTick "Yes" if item is supported, tick "No" if item is not supported.[ ] N/ATick "N/A" if the item is "not applicable".Prerequisite lineA prerequisite line takes the form: Prerequisite: .A prerequisite line after a subclause heading or table title indicates that the whole subclause or the whole table is notrequired to be completed if the predicate is FALSE.A.1.3Instructions for completing the PICS proformaThe supplier of the implementation shall complete the PICS proforma. For each row in each PICS proforma table thesupplier shall enter an explicit answer (i.e. by ticking the appropriate "Yes", "No", or "N/A" in each of the supportcolumn boxes provided. Where a support column box is left blank, or where it is marked "N/A" without any tickbox, noanswer is required. If necessary, the supplier may enter additional comments at the end of each table, or separately.More detailed instructions may be found at the beginning of each section of the proforma.SIST EN 300 403-3 V1.2.2:2005
EN 300 403-3 V1.2.2 (1998-04)11A.1.4The PICS proforma tablesA.1.4.1Correspondence to a physical interfaceThe "implementation" (IUT) about which this PICS proforma asks questions corresponds to a layer 3 implementation ontop of ONE physical interface (i.e. one ISDN Basic access or one ISDN Primary rate access interface structure). If theSUT implements both Basic access and Primary rate access interface structures, and in the case of the Basic access,supports more than one configuration, then a layer 3 PICS shall be created for each type of interface (and for eachconfiguration of each interface) provided by the SUT.A.1.4.2Structure of the tablesThe supplier shall provide answers to the questions concerning the major roles of the IUT and the type of interface(table A.1). The supplier shall then provide answers to the questions relating to the capabilities of the IUT in one of themajor roles as appropriate. The supplier shall also provide answers to the questions relating to the type of interfacesupporting the IUT (the behaviour of the IUT is dependant on the type of interface and its configuration). Apart from theinitial questions to determine roles, the major roles of the IUT - the user role (R 2.1) and the network role (R 2.2), aretreated completely separately in the PICS proforma. It is only necessary to complete the questions for the supported role.The answers to the "type of interface" questions (represented by items R 3.x, R 6.x and R 7.x) condition the answers tothe further questions within each major role (user and network).Clause A.6 concerns the capabilities of the IUT whilst in the user role. Clause A.7 concerns the capabilities of the IUTwhilst in the network role.A.1.4.3Complexity of conditions in PDU parameter tablesThe conditions governing when an individual information element has to be supported in a specific message are quitecomplex. This is particularly so for the Bearer capability, Progress indicator, and High layer compatibility informationelements when they are transmitted by an IUT in the user role. To make the conditions for status easier to understandquestions about these information elements have been split into several sub-items.A.1.4.4Support for received PDU parametersIn the PDU parameter tables (A.6.5 and A.7.5), the PICS proforma asks questions about the information elements(parameters) supported in messages (PDUs) received by the IUT. This subclause explains, in the context ofEN 300 403-1 [1], what "to support a received PDU parameter" means.The requirement that an IUT is able to parse an information element in a received message is already implied byclaiming support for the receipt of that received message. This means that "to support a received PDU parameter"implies more.Information elements in received messages are regarded as either transparent or non-transparent.A non-transparent information element is one that causes the protocol control entity to vary its behaviour in accordancewith the content of the information element. To support a non-transparent information element means an IUT canprocess the received parameter and behave according to the procedures described in EN 300 403-1 [1].An information element is transparent if the actions taken according to its contents are not detectable in the subsequentbehaviour of the protocol (i.e. EN 300 403-1 [1] does not specify the protocol behaviour). To support a transparentinformation element means an IUT can receive the information element concerned and pass it to an appropriateprocessing entity (e.g. call control); the information element is not discarded by the protocol control entity. Non-supportof a transparent information element means the IUT discards it.Where EN 300 403-1 [1], in addition to not specifying the protocol behaviour, does not specify the non-protocolbehaviour, transparent parameters have been allocated the status Irrelevant (I). In such cases the Client may choose notto answer whether or not the IUT supports the item. If the item is claimed to be supported, an explanation shall be givenin the comments field of the table indicating what actions are performed on receipt of the parameter.SIST EN 300 403-3 V1.2.2:2005
EN 300 403-3 V1.2.2 (1998-04)12This PICS proforma considers the Cause, Display, and Keypad facility information elements to be transparent in allcircumstances where they are possible to be received. Other information elements may be transparent in somecircumstances (e.g. High layer compatibility and Low layer compatibility when received by the network). Transparentparameters are marked by "(T)" in the PDU parameter tables.A.2Identification of the implementationIdentification of the Implementation Under Test (IUT) and the system in which it resides (the System Under Test(SUT)) should be filled in to provide as much detail as possible regarding version numbers and configuration options.The product supplier and client information should both be filled in if they are different.A person who can answer queries regarding information supplied in the PICS should be named as the contact person.A.2.1Date of the statement.
