SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3, a European Standard for the ISDN User Part (ISUP) Application transport mechanism. It defines the Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma that suppliers use to declare which parts of the protocol they implement and that test labs use to assess conformance. In practice, it is the conformance-declaration companion to the protocol specification in EN 301 069-1.

What does SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003 specify?

SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003 specifies the validation conformance test specification for the Application transport mechanism defined in EN 301 069-1. It applies to exchanges that have implemented the ISUP v3 protocol specification for this mechanism and is used for validation testing of all exchange types covered by that protocol specification.

The document focuses on PICS, which records what capabilities and options of the telecommunications specification have been implemented. It also states that the document is not for compatibility testing.

The document is organized into:

• Clause 1 - Scope
• Clause 2 - References
• Clause 3 - Definitions and abbreviations
• Clause 4 - Conformance to the PICS proforma specification
• Annex A - Normative PICS proforma

Annex	What it covers
Annex A	The normative PICS proforma, including completion instructions, implementation identification, reference specification identification, and the PICS tables

What are the key requirements of SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003?

SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003 requires a supplier to complete the PICS proforma for any implementation claimed to conform to EN 301 069-1. That matters because the completed proforma is the formal declaration of what the implementation supports.

Conformance declaration

Clause 4 requires the completed PICS to be technically equivalent to the standard and to preserve the numbering and ordering of the items. In practice, this lets a test lab compare a supplier's declaration directly against the document structure.

Identification of the implementation

Annex A requires identification of the statement date, the Implementation Under Test (IUT), the System Under Test (SUT), the product supplier, the client, and the ICS contact person. This gives the test or audit process a clear link between the declaration and the exact system being assessed.

Reference to the right specification

Annex A.3 ties the PICS to EN 301 069-1 and notes that basic services in EN 300 356-31 are a prerequisite. For the reader, that means the PICS is not standalone - it sits within a defined ISUP v3 conformance context.

Global conformance statement

Annex A.4.1 asks whether all mandatory capabilities are implemented. If a mandatory item is not supported, the proforma identifies the non-conformance and asks for an explanation, which is important for acceptance decisions.

Roles and exchange capabilities

Annex A.4.2 and A.4.3 cover roles and major capabilities, including local exchange, TE_P-national transit exchange, transit-national transit exchange, data carriage in the Initial Address Message (IAM), handling of Address Complete Message (ACM), segmentation, re-assembly, and early Address Complete Message. In practice, this is the part that tells users which call-handling behaviors the exchange can perform.

Timing

Annex A.4.3 also includes timer T-reass. That matters because implementations often need to show their supported timer value when conformance is checked.

What terms does SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003 define?

SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003 defines several testing and conformance terms used throughout the document.

• Abstract Test Case (ATC) - a complete, independent test specification that starts and ends in a stable state.
• Abstract Test Method (ATM) - the abstract description of how the IUT is to be tested, independent of a specific test rig.
• Implementation Under Test (IUT) - the protocol implementation being examined.
• Means of Testing (MOT) - the equipment and procedures used to derive, select, parameterize, and execute test cases and produce a conformance log.
• Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) - a supplier statement showing which capabilities of a protocol are implemented.
• Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing (PIXIT) - information about the IUT and its test environment that helps a lab run the right tests.
• System Under Test (SUT) - the real open system in which the IUT resides.
• ISDN number - a number that follows ITU-T Recommendation E.164.

Who uses SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003?

SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003 is used by implementation suppliers, conformance test laboratories, and organizations assessing ISUP v3 exchange behavior. It is relevant to telecom equipment manufacturers and integrators working with ISDN and Signalling System No.7 interfaces.

The PICS proforma supports tasks such as declaring supported roles, documenting call-handling capabilities, and preparing for validation testing against EN 301 069-1 and the related test specifications.

Which standards are used with SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003?

SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003 cites these related standards and recommendations:

• ETSI EN 301 069-1 - the protocol specification for the Application transport mechanism; this is the main reference being profiled by the PICS.
• ETSI EN 301 069-3 - the Test Suite Structure and Test Purposes specification for the Application transport mechanism.
• ETSI EN 300 356-31 - the PICS proforma for ISUP basic services, noted as a prerequisite.
• ETSI EN 301 070-2 - a related PICS proforma for ISUP v3 interactions with INAP.
• ISO/IEC 9646-1 - general concepts for OSI conformance testing.
• ISO/IEC 9646-3 - Tree and Tabular Combined Notation (TTCN).
• ISO/IEC 9646-7 - Implementation Conformance Statements.
• ITU-T Recommendation E.164 - numbering for ISDN numbers.
• ITU-T Recommendation Q.761 - functional description of ISDN User Part.
• ITU-T Recommendation Q.762 - general functions of messages and signals in ISUP.

What does the SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003 document contain?

SIST EN 301 069-2 V1.1.3:2003 contains the normative PICS proforma in Annex A, with instructions for completion and tables for implementation details, reference specification details, roles, capabilities, and timer support. The table structure follows ISO/IEC 9646-7 conventions, so each item has a clear reference, status, and support entry.

The annex is intended to be completed by the supplier and can be reproduced for its intended purpose. The finished PICS then becomes the formal record used in conformance evaluation and test planning.
