(Main)Private Integrated Services Network (PISN); Inter-exchange signalling protocol; Call identification and call linkage Additional Network Feature (ANF) [ISO/IEC 21889 (2001), modified]
General Information
- Abstract
ANF-CIDL is an additional network feature which allows the assignment of a Global Call Identification (GID) to identify a call end-to-end over the call route (i.e. between the two end PINXs). As an option, a Thread Identification may be assigned to different calls which are logically linked together due to the operation of other supplementary services and/or ANFs. Additionally a Leg Identification may be assigned, to identify the different legs of a call. This ANF has been developed to support the use of CSTA (ECMA-269) in a networked environment, i.e. in a PISN. Use of this ANF for other applications is not precluded.

Overview
SIST EN 301 923 V1.1.1:2005 is a Slovenian adoption of the European Standard for Private Integrated Services Network (PISN) inter-exchange signalling protocol, specifically focusing on Call Identification and Call Linkage Additional Network Feature (ANF), as aligned with ISO/IEC 21889 (2001), with modifications. This standard defines how calls are uniquely identified throughout their route within a PISN and how logically linked calls can be tracked and managed. The provision of this ANF is essential for supporting advanced supplementary services and ensuring interoperability within complex, multi-exchange PISN environments.
Key Topics
- Global Call Identification (GID): Enables assigning a unique identifier to each call, which is maintained end-to-end between PISN exchanges (PINXs), enhancing call traceability and network management.
- Thread Identification: Allows linking together multiple calls that are logically connected, a vital feature for advanced telephony services such as call transfer and conferencing.
- Leg Identification: Facilitates identification of different segments (legs) of a call, supporting complex routing and supplementary services.
- Support for CSTA: Designed to facilitate the Computer Supported Telecommunications Applications (CSTA - ECMA-269) within a networked PISN, enhancing integration with computer-based communication systems.
- Protocol Scope: Specifies signalling at the Q reference point as part of the PSS1 (QSIG) protocol suite, ensuring compatibility and interoperability for inter-exchange communications in Private Integrated Services Networks.
Applications
The standard is especially relevant in environments where advanced call handling and supplementary services are mission-critical. Its practical value includes:
- Enterprise Telephony Systems: Supports organizations with large, distributed PISNs requiring reliable call management, auditing, and tracking across multiple geographic locations.
- Service Providers: Enables telecom providers to deliver value-added services (such as call transfer, conferencing, and call logging) with consistent identification and linkage of calls.
- Network Operations: Simplifies troubleshooting, monitoring, and auditing by ensuring all calls and associated events can be uniquely and consistently identified.
- Integration with IT Systems: Assists in merging telephony with IT through CSTA integration, unlocking unified communications, automated call handling, and enhanced reporting.
- Compliance & Security: Facilitates regulatory compliance by providing auditable call records, aiding in legal intercept, fraud prevention, and privacy enforcement.
