SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI I-ETS 300 491-1 Edition 1, published by SIST. It gives a Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma for conformance testing of file transfer over the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) for ETS 300 075. In practice, it is used to record which protocol roles, services, PDUs, and parameter options a Terminal Equipment (TE) implementation supports.
What does SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003 specify?
SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003 specifies the PICS proforma for the Telesoftware Data Unit (TDU) layer protocol requirements of ETS 300 075, in line with ISO/IEC DIS 9646-7. It is a documentation tool for conformance evaluation: the supplier completes the proforma to state what the implementation supports and how it behaves.
The document is organized into four main clauses and one normative annex:
| Part of the document | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Clauses 1-4 | Scope, normative references, definitions and abbreviations, and the PICS conformance requirement |
| Annex A | The normative PICS proforma for ETS 300 075, including instructions, identification fields, conformance claims, static requirements, PDUs, and parameter tables |
Annex A is the practical core of the document. It provides the questions and coding rules used to describe an implementation in a standard form.
What are the key requirements of SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003?
SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003 requires the supplier of a protocol implementation claimed to conform to ETS 300 075 to complete the PICS proforma in Annex A and identify both the supplier and the implementation. Clause 4 makes the PICS a required part of the conformance claim, so the document is not just descriptive - it is the formal statement used in evaluation.
Conformance claim and identification
Annex A begins with instructions and identification fields for the implementation, the system under test, the supplier, the client, and the ICS contact person. It also includes a global conformance statement asking whether the implementation meets all mandatory requirements of ETS 300 075. In practice, this gives test labs and purchasers a single place to see what is being claimed and who stands behind the claim.
Roles, classes, and regimes
The PICS asks the supplier to state support for implicit and explicit roles, service classes, and protocol regimes. The main regime entries are Association, Access, and Transfer, with Access and some service capabilities conditional on symmetrical service support. This matters because the protocol can be implemented in different operating profiles, and the PICS shows which profile applies.
Service elements and functional units
Annex A lists service elements such as T_ASSOCIATE, T_RELEASE, T_ACCESS, T_END_ACCESS, T_DIRECTORY, T_LOAD, T_SAVE, T_RENAME, T_DELETE, T_TYPED_DATA, T_WRITE, T_WRITE_END, T_U_EXCEPT, and T_P_EXCEPT. The implementation has to declare which of these are supported for the relevant roles. In practice, this tells an integrator whether the equipment can do only the basic file transfer functions or also more specialized operations and exception reporting.
PDU support
The annex breaks down support for Protocol Data Units (PDUs) by regime: association, access, transfer, mass transfer, and exception reporting. For each service, the proforma asks whether request, response, or indication PDUs are supported. This helps conformance testers check the protocol behavior at the message level instead of relying on broad functional claims.
Parameter values and coding rules
The proforma goes beyond yes/no support and asks for supported parameter values, lengths, defaults, and encodings. Examples include address strings, service class values, confirmation flags, transfer unit size, anticipation window, recovery settings, designation formats, recovery points, and reason codes for negative responses. For a reader, this is the part that shows how the implementation is configured and what parameter values must be handled correctly during testing.
Conditional rules and default values
Annex A uses standard notation such as mandatory, optional, conditional, prohibited, and not applicable, together with a support column. Some entries depend on whether symmetrical service is supported or whether Basic Transfer Mode is used. The annex also says that default values must be stated as supported even if they are not transmitted. In practice, this prevents gaps in the conformance statement and makes the implementation's behavior easier to test.
What terms does SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003 define?
- Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) - An ICS for an implementation or system that claims conformance to a given protocol specification.
- PICS proforma - An ICS proforma prepared for a protocol specification, used as the standard form to record support.
- Implementation Conformance Statement (ICS) - A structured statement of what an implementation supports against a specification.
- Implementation Under Test (IUT) - The implementation being assessed for conformance.
- System Under Test (SUT) - The overall system configuration in which the implementation is tested or described.
- Protocol Data Unit (PDU) - A protocol message unit used by the TDU layer to carry requests, responses, and indications.
- Telesoftware Data Unit (TDU) - The protocol layer named in the scope of this standard, where the ETS 300 075 requirements are addressed.
Who uses SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003?
SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003 is used by TE suppliers, protocol developers, conformance test laboratories, and quality teams that need a formal statement of protocol support for ETS 300 075. It is also useful to buyers and integrators who need to check whether an ISDN file transfer implementation supports the roles, services, and parameter ranges they require.
In practice, these users complete or review the PICS before testing, certification, or procurement. The document helps them compare implementations on the same basis.
What changed in SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003 from the previous edition?
SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003 is identical to I-ETS 300 491-1 Edition 1.
Which standards are used with SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003?
- ETS 300 075 (1994) - The base file transfer specification whose TDU layer requirements are covered by the PICS.
- ISO/IEC 9646-1 (1994) - Provides the general concepts of conformance testing methodology and framework.
- ISO/IEC 9646-2 (1994) - Provides the abstract test suite specification framework and the status notation used in the proforma.
- ISO/IEC DIS 9646-7 (1993) - Provides the guidance for Implementation Conformance Statements and the tabular PICS structure.
- ITU-T Recommendation T.51 (1993) - Defines the coded character sets used for user data strings and optional text in several parameters.
- Part 2 of I-ETS 300 491 - Covers the Test Suite Structure and Test Purposes (TSS&TP).
- Part 3 of I-ETS 300 491 - Covers the Abstract Test Suite (ATS) for conformance testing of ETS 300 075 restricted by ETS 300 383.
What does the SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003 document contain?
SIST I-ETS 300 491-1 E1:2003 contains a structured questionnaire in Annex A with numbered tables for roles, service classes, regimes, service elements, PDU support, and parameter values. It also includes the coding rules for the status and support columns, along with conditional expressions that control when an item is mandatory, optional, or not applicable.
The annex gives the exact fields needed to identify the implementation, the supplier, the system under test, and the overall conformance claim. It then lists the request, response, and indication forms for association, access, transfer, write, and exception services.
A major part of the document is the parameter coding detail: address lengths, designation syntax, confirmation flags, recovery points, transfer sizes, and reason codes for negative responses. These tables are used for conformance documentation, test planning, and checking that the implementation accepts the right protocol values.

Foreword
Part 1 of this Interim European Telecommunication Standard (I-ETS) has been produced by the Terminal
Equipment (TE) Technical Committee of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
An ETSI standard may be given I-ETS status either because it is regarded as a provisional solution ahead
of a more advanced standard, or because it is immature and requires a "trial period". The life of an I-ETS
is limited to three years after which it can be converted into an ETS, have its life extended for a further two
years, be replaced by a new version, or be withdrawn.
This is the first part of an I-ETS which comprises three parts as follows:
Terminal Equipment (TE); Conformance testing for file transfer over the Integrated Services Digital
Network (ISDN):
Part 1: ETS 300 075 Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma;
Part 2: ETS 300 075 Test Suite Structure and Test Purposes (TSS&TP);
Part 3: Conformance testing for ETS 300 075 restricted by ETS 300 383 - Abstract Test Suite (ATS).
Proposed announcement date
Date of adoption of this I-ETS: 30 August 1996
Date of latest announcement of this I-ETS (doa): 31 December 1996
Introduction
To evaluate the conformance of a particular implementation, a statement of which capabilities and options
have been implemented for a given specification is needed. Such a statement is called a Protocol
Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS).

A.1 Instructions for completing the PICS proforma
A.1.1 Purposes and structure
The purpose of this PICS is to provide a mechanism whereby a supplier of an implementation of the
requirements of ETS 300 075 [1] may provide information in a standard form.
The PICS proforma is subdivided into clauses for the following categories of information:
- implementation details;
- protocol details;
- overall conformance claim;
- static requirements:
1) roles;
2) major capabilities;
3) negotiation capabilities;
4) Protocol Data Units (PDU);
5) Protocol Data Units parameters.
- timer;
- supplementary services;
- dynamic requirements.
A.1.2 Symbols, abbreviations and conventions
The PICS proforma contained in this annex is comprised of information in a tabular form in accordance
with the guidelines presented in ISO/IEC DIS 9646-7 [4].
References within tables are to ETS 300 075 [1], except where explicitly stated.
Page 11
I-ETS 300 491-1: September 1996
A.1.2.1 Standardized symbols for the status column
The following notations, defined in ISO/IEC 9646-2 [3] are used in the proforma to indicate the status of a
question:
- m (mandatory): the capability shall be implemented, in conformance with the protocol standard;
- o (optional): the capability may be implemented, and if it is implemented it shall conform to
the protocol specification (cf. ISO/IEC 9646-1 [2], clause A.3);
- o.n (optional): the capability may be implemented, and if it is implemented it shall conform to
the protocol specification, and the option is mutually exclusive or selectable
among a set (cf. ISO/IEC 9646-1 [2], clause A.3);
- x (prohibited): there is a requirement not to use this capability in a given context;
- c (conditional): the requirement on the capability depends on the selection of other optional or
conditional items;
- n/a (not applicable): in the given context the base specification makes it impossible to use this
capability.
If appropriate, a "c" followed by an integer is placed in the status column, providing a reference to a
conditional status expression defined as a note inside the table. As defined in ISO/IEC DIS 9646-7 [4], this
predicate expression is consistent with Tree and Tabular Combined Notation (TTCN) boolean expressions
(i.e. IF . THEN (IF . THEN . ELSE) ELSE .). In all cases, "ELSE n/a" is implied if an ELSE clause is
omitted.
A.1.2.2 Standardized symbols for the support column
To specify the level of support for all entries, the standardized symbols for the support column shall be as
follows:
- y (supported): the capability is implemented in conformance with the ETS;
- n (not supported): the capability is not implemented;
- n/a (no answer required): the question has a status value of either not applicable or out of scope.
A.1.2.3 The supported values column
A "supported" values column, if appropriate, in which the values or ranges of values supported can be
indicated, as well as type and length, if relevant.
A.1.3 Instructions for completing the PICS
The supplier of the implementation shall enter an explicit statement in each of the boxes provided, using
the notation described in subclause A.1.2. A specific instruction is provided in the text which precedes
