SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 301 140-4-2 V1.1.3 for Intelligent Network (IN) and Intelligent Network Application Protocol (INAP) Capability Set 2 (CS2). It specifies the Abstract Test Suite (ATS) and the Partial Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing (PIXIT) proforma for Service Switching Function (SSF), Sub-part 2: Call Party Handling (CPH). In practice, it is used by conformance test laboratories, protocol implementers, and quality teams that need a defined test basis for INAP CS2 Call Party Handling.
What does SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001 specify?
SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001 specifies the ATS for CS2 Call Party Handling and the related Partial PIXIT proforma for SSF testing. It is part of the EN 301 140 series for INAP CS2, so readers use it together with the core protocol specification and the other test specification parts.
The document is organized around three normative annexes:
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Annex A | TTCN for the ATS for INAP CS2 CPH |
| Annex B | Partial PIXIT proforma for INAP CS2 CPH |
| Annex C | Protocol Conformance Test Report (PCTR) proforma for CORE INAP CS2 CPH protocol |
Annex A gives the test suite itself, Annex B gives the implementation information needed before running tests, and Annex C gives the report structure used to record conformance results.
What are the key requirements of SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001?
SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001 is mainly a conformance-testing document, so its key content is the defined test suite, the test parameters that must be supplied, and the report format for recording results. The practical effect is that a lab can set up, run, and document INAP CS2 CPH tests in a consistent way.
ATS and test method
Annex A states that the ATS is produced in Tree and Tabular Combined Notation (TTCN) according to ISO/IEC 9646-3, and that the test suite uses the remote test method, embedded variant. That matters because it tells the test lab how the protocol is exercised and what kind of test environment is assumed.
PIXIT information
Annex B defines the Partial PIXIT proforma, including identification, ATS summary, test laboratory, client identification, SUT, and protocol layer information. This is the information a user must complete so the ATS can be applied to a specific implementation.
Implementation data and parameters
Annex B also lists the implementation data expected for the test run, including implicit send events, Core INAP parameter values, and TCAP parameter values. In practice, this is where the lab records the values used for call-related numbers, causes, routing information, charging characteristics, time fields, and dialogue or invoke identifiers.
Protocol conformance reporting
Annex C defines the PCTR proforma, with sections for identification, IUT identification, testing environment, limits and reservation, comments, conformance status, static conformance summary, dynamic conformance summary, review report, test campaign report, and observations. This gives a standardized way to capture what was tested and what the outcome was.
Test campaign recording
Annex C includes a test campaign report table with selected runs, verdicts, and observations for many ATS references, grouped under headings such as MC, MCS, RC, DL, ML, RR, SL, CW, and CallHandling. That helps a reader see which test cases were executed and how their outcomes were logged.
What terms does SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001 define?
- Intelligent Network (IN) - The network architecture addressed by the EN 301 140 series.
- Intelligent Network Application Protocol (INAP) - The application protocol being tested in this standard.
- Capability Set 2 (CS2) - The capability set covered by this part of the INAP series.
- Service Switching Function (SSF) - The network function for which the ATS and PIXIT proforma are specified.
- Call Party Handling (CPH) - The CS2 sub-part covered in this document.
- Abstract Test Suite (ATS) - The formal set of test cases and test behavior for conformance testing.
- Partial Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing (PIXIT) - The implementation-specific information needed to execute the ATS.
- Protocol Conformance Test Report (PCTR) - The report form used to record conformance test results.
Who uses SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001?
SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001 is used by conformance test laboratories, INAP implementers, and quality or certification teams working on telecommunication equipment. It is also relevant to buyers and technical assessors who need evidence that an SSF implementation can be tested against a defined CPH test suite.
In practice, users apply it when preparing a test environment, filling in PIXIT data, selecting ATS cases, and documenting a test campaign. It is most relevant in telephone networks and other IN-based telecom systems using INAP CS2.
What changed in SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001 from the previous edition?
SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001 is identified as ETSI EN 301 140-4-2 V1.1.3 (2000-05), and the history lists Version 1.1.2 from June 1999 and Version 1.1.3 vote and publication steps in 2000. The document excerpt does not state detailed technical change notes.
Which standards are used with SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001?
- ETSI EN 301 140-1 - The core INAP CS2 protocol specification referenced by the ATS.
- ISO/IEC 9646-6 - The protocol profile test specification methodology used for the PIXIT and PCTR proformas.
- ETSI EN 301 140-4-1 - The CS1 ATS and PIXIT part that provides methodology references for TTCN generation.
- ETSI EN 301 140-2 - The PICS proforma specification for INAP CS2.
- ISO/IEC 9646-3 - The TTCN notation standard used for the ATS.
What does the SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001 document contain?
SIST EN 301 140-4-2:2001 contains the TTCN representation of the ATS in Annex A, with both graphical and machine-processable forms. It also contains the PIXIT proforma in Annex B and the PCTR proforma in Annex C.
Annex A points to a PDF form and an ASCII machine-processable form of the TTCN test suite. Annex B structures the information a tester must collect before execution, including the SUT and protocol parameter values. Annex C structures the result record, including static and dynamic conformance summaries and detailed test campaign reporting.
