SIST EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3:2003 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3, issued by SIST. It specifies the stage 3 signalling procedures and switching functions for the Call Waiting (CW) supplementary service in the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) using Signalling System No.7 (SS7) and the ISDN User Part (ISUP) for the international interface.
What does SIST EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3:2003 specify?
SIST EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3:2003 specifies the stage 3 description of Call Waiting (CW) for pan-European ISDN interconnection. In practice, that means the document focuses on protocol behavior and switching functions between networks, not on the user-facing service description itself.
The scope is limited to the international interface. It keeps the actions at originating and destination local exchanges, but it sets aside extra protocol requirements for a national signalling interface and for delivery of the service over a non-ISDN network.
The document is organized around the modified text of ITU-T Recommendation Q.733, clause 1, with inserted scope and normative references text at the start of clause 1. It also includes one informative annex.

What are the key requirements of SIST EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3:2003?
SIST EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3:2003 defines how CW behaves when an incoming call arrives and no interface information channel is available. The subscriber is notified of the waiting call and can accept, reject or ignore it, using the same basic call procedures that the service relies on.
Service scope and interworking
The document applies the CW service to the telephony teleservice and to the speech and 3,1 kHz audio bearer services. That tells implementers where the service is meant to make sense and where signaling support should be provided.
Interworking with networks that do not provide CW is handled simply: the notification is lost. For a network that does not support CW at the national side, the outgoing international gateway exchange discards the corresponding Generic notification indicator parameter and completes the call by the basic call procedure.
Signalling and exchange behavior
The text keeps the functions, formats, codes and procedures for originating and destination local exchanges in the international-interface description, even when some items are marked for national use. That matters because gateway and exchange equipment still needs consistent signaling behavior at the borders between networks.
Several subclauses are aligned by replacing wording such as “succeeding” with “preceding,” and two subclauses are stated as having no impact on ISUP. In practice, this signals that the CW handling is tightly scoped and does not change the wider ISUP framework beyond the defined procedures.
Compatibility information
Annex ZA gives the recommended coding for compatibility information linked to the generic notification parameter. This is useful for implementers who need to map the service into actual protocol fields and ensure the correct treatment of notification-related indicators.
What terms does SIST EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3:2003 define?
- Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) - The network environment for which this CW signalling specification is written.
- Signalling System No.7 (SS7) - The signalling system used to carry ISUP messages between networks.
- ISDN User Part (ISUP) - The SS7 user part that carries ISDN call-control signaling on the international interface.
- Call Waiting (CW) - The supplementary service that alerts a subscriber to an incoming call while another call is active or pending handling.
- Generic notification indicator parameter - The parameter used in the compatibility information to carry notification-related handling for CW.
- International gateway exchange - The exchange that bridges national and international networks and applies the interworking behavior defined here.
Who uses SIST EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3:2003?
SIST EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3:2003 is used by telecommunications operators, signalling engineers, and switch vendors working on ISDN interconnection. It is also relevant to network integration teams that have to make CW work across international gateways.
Test and conformance teams use it to check that implementations follow the defined stage 3 behavior for CW, especially when a call crosses between networks with different support for the service. Quality and interoperability teams use it to confirm that exchange behavior matches the international-interface rules.
What changed in SIST EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3:2003 from the previous edition?
The history shows an earlier publication as ETS 300 356-17 V3.1.1, followed by a vote and publication as V3.1.3. This edition presents ITU-T Recommendation Q.733, clause 1 (1992), as an EN with agreed modifications.
The listed changes add the Scope and Normative references clauses, update reference mappings throughout clause 1, replace several subclause wordings, and add informative Annex ZA for compatibility information coding.
Which standards are used with SIST EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3:2003?
- CCITT Recommendation I.130 - The method used to characterize telecommunications services and the three-stage model referenced by this CW specification.
- ETS 300 056 - Gives the stage 1 service description for CW.
- ETS 300 057 - Gives the stage 2 functional capabilities and information flows for CW.
- ETS 300 058-1 - Gives the DSS1 protocol specification for CW.
- ETS 300 121 - Provides the ISUP version 1 reference used in the replacement mapping.
- EN 300 356-1 - Provides the basic services part of ISUP version 3 for the international interface.
- EN 300 356-2 - Provides the ISDN supplementary services part of ISUP version 3.
- EN 300 403-1 - Provides the DSS1 protocol reference for circuit-mode basic call control.
What does the SIST EN 300 356-17 V3.1.3:2003 document contain?
This document contains the modified text of clause 1 from ITU-T Recommendation Q.733, plus inserted scope and normative reference text and the reference-replacement mapping used to align the CW procedures with the EN 300 356 family. It also includes Annex ZA, which gives the recommended coding for compatibility information related to the Generic notification indicator parameter.
For implementers, the practical value is in the signaling behavior, the interworking rules, and the compatibility coding guidance. For readers checking applicability, the document shows that CW is specified for international ISDN interconnection and is tied to the stage 3 protocol and switching functions rather than the service definition itself.
