Foreword
This ETSI Guide (EG) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Services and Protocols for Advanced
Networks (SPAN).
Introduction
The purpose of the present document is to provide a source of reference material to enable Service Providers and
Network Operators to determine standardized facilities that are available in published ETSI protocols to support the
introduction of services. The present document also validates a number of benchmark services initially identified by the
European Commission [1] for third-party service provision using a generic capability set for Open Intelligent Network
Interconnection and the Service Provider Access Requirements (SPAR) that are captured in clause 7.3.
A number of open network architectural solutions are assessed including IN, Mobile Networks, Internet and ISDN.
Following regulatory and commercial drivers to expand the range and geographical scope of telecommunications
services, ETSI working groups are identifying new requirements and developing appropriate standards solutions to
support open inter-network and service provider access. The present document covers the Open Inter-Network and
nd
Open Network Access Requirements for the Fixed Network, 2 and 3rd Generation Mobility and Network
Management. It addresses these requirements by taking a top down approach including Service requirements,
Functional and Physical Architectures.
The present document commences with an introduction to the initial benchmark services to be provided by a Service
Provider/Network Operator under European Commission mandate BC-T-305 [1] using Intelligent Network
Interconnection. The present document then describes open access options via either Circuit Related and Non circuit
related interfaces utilizing both direct service provider interconnection, via a SPAI, and indirect service provider
interconnection via an intermediate Network.
The present document enumerates the activities in relation to the production of a set of open standards for internetwork
control plane, management plane and service provider access interfaces. A Public Network Operator can also take the
SP role, and indeed nothing in the present document should be taken as precluding such a possibility.
The Service Provider definition is not intended to map to certain country-specific meanings of the term, which are often
taken as being "resellers", but is strictly intended in this context to cover the role of producing the telecommunications
service.

1 Scope
The present document aims to facilitate the technical introduction of open inter-network and service provider access. It
includes architectural scenarios and guidelines, and identifies implementation requirements to support these more
advanced services. The format is based on a staged approach, covering both circuit-related (CR) and non-circuit-related
(NCR) interfaces, including IN-related signalling technologies. It commences with the definition of service provider
architectural and implementation capabilities, the implementation of which is initially based on standards existing at the
start of the work. ETSI TC SPAN (that has produced the present document) has also been responsible for co-ordination
and the enhancement of protocols, where necessary, in order to meet the Service Provider Access Requirements (SPAR)
as outlined in the present document. Open Service Provider access is enabled by means of enhanced User to Network
and Network-to-Network Interfaces. A number of Initial benchmark Services together with Service support and network
management requirements are also considered.
Cross-referencing of the SPAR requirements and the candidate protocols is detailed through sets of tables. Existing
protocol standards are utilized in the analysis, and are considered as candidates for re-use. Emerging protocols and APIs
were also considered.
The overall objective of the present document is to map out the facilities and protocols needed to allow delivery of
telecommunications services across multiple networks, including networks that may be geographically or technically
diverse in nature. Where lack of support in protocol capabilities has been identified, these deficiencies are noted as
items for further work.

4 History and Regulatory Background
4.1 Development of the Market
In the original European work done in the 1980s, a clear link was drawn between the availability of economically
efficient telecommunications services and the development of the economy of the region as a whole. Stimulating
competition to enable these services was seen as key.
The development of competition in the telecommunications market in Europe has been characterized, initially, by the
liberalization of services, at the beginning of the 1990s. This was followed in 1998 by the liberalization of the provision
of infrastructure.
However, for a provider to deliver services where they do not themselves have control of the access network, this will
necessitate interconnection with and access to the network of a relevant network operator. This access has been limited
to ordinary user plane interconnection (call origination, transit and call termination), with the attendant limitations on
the type of services that can be delivered using this mechanism.
In order to enable advanced services, enhanced forms of access are required. These forms fall into two generic
types - control plane access and management plane access. It is in this context that the current work has been
progressed.
4.2 EC Directives
EC directives 97/33/EC [5] and 98/10/EC [6] require reasonable requests for access to the networks of operators with
Significant Market Power (SMP) to be met. In order to reduce the costs for all parties concerned, this work is aimed at
standardizing as many of the envisaged capabilities as possible.
5 Service aspects
In developing the present document, five initial benchmark services have been identified, see [1]. These are currently
supported under IN and terminal mobility signalling protocols. The benchmark services will be utilized to test the
extension of the signalling protocols in support of open network access.
5.1 Service Definition.
Services, as defined by current ETSI Standards, are taken within the present document as a benchmark for consideration
of protocol support - see Benchmark IN services as listed in clause 5.1.2. Service Providers have the opportunity to
develop these or create their own services to meet specific user requirements. Such services may be developed by
utilizing the flexibility offered through an API or by an IN.
5.2 Benchmark Services
A list of benchmark services are listed in table 1 as defined in ETR 244 [1].
The identified services all have existing service definition for either the PSTN or the ISDN, as defined in table 1.

ETR 172 [26] identifies the work items required for this definition.
ETSI
10 ETSI EG 201 916 V1.1.1 (2001-10)
The benchmark services have been used to specify the Open-INAP Protocol work being developed by ETSI
WG-SPAN12 as a special PICS Proforma (DEN/SPAN-120084 (see bibliography)) to accompany IN CS-3, and they
have also been mapped in the present document against the capabilities noted in the requirements clause 7.3 of the
present document.
NOTE: ETSI WG-SPAN12 are also using the number portability service as defined in EG 201 367 [27] as an
additional benchmark service for OPEN-INAP.
5.3 Service Provider Access Management
Network Management requirements to support Service Provider Access are listed in the companion Guide EG 201 965 [11].
6 Architectural Aspects
A signalling connection between a public telecommunications network operator and a service provider is shown below
in figure 2. The physical connection of the call is only extended from the public telecommunications network to the
service provider's equipment for circuit related (CR) access.
For calls from a calling party (CgPy) in the originating PTN (PTNorig) to a called party (CdPy) in the terminating PTN
(PTNterm), in which both PTNs and SPs are involved, various call connection scenarios are possible. Figure 2
visualizes two examples of a call connection scenario from the viewpoint of the requirements of the SPs of the
originating- and terminating-call-related services, called SPorig and SPterm, respectively.

Scenario A is an example of a call in which SPorig is involved. In this scenario A, the call is forwarded from the
PTNorig to SPorig which provides a service to the call. SPorig returns the call to the PTNorig. The call is then
forwarded from the PTNorig, eventually via a transit network (PTNtran), to the PTNterm in which the call is terminated
at the called party's (CdPy) line.
ETSI
11 ETSI EG 201 916 V1.1.1 (2001-10)
Scenario B is an example of a call in which both the SPorig and the SPterm are involved. In this scenario, the call is
forwarded from the PTNorig to SPorig which provides a service to the call. SPorig returns the call to the PTNorig. The
call is then forwarded from the PTNorig, eventually via a transit network (PTNtran), to the PTNterm. Then, from the
PTNterm the call is forwarded to SPterm which provides a service to the call. SPterm returns the call to the PTNterm, in
which the call is terminated at the called party's (CdPy) line.
For calls from a calling party (CgPy) in the originating PTN (PTNorig) to a called party (CdPy) in the terminating PTN
(PTNterm), in which both PTNs and SPs are involved, various call connection scenarios are possible. Figure 3
visualizes two examples of a call connection scenario in the NCR case from the viewpoint of the requirements of the
SPs of the originating- and terminating-call-related services, called SPorig and SPterm, respectively.

Scenario C is an example of a call in which SPorig is involved. In this scenario, the signalling in the control plane is
forwarded from the PTNorig to SPorig which provides a service to the call. Then, the signalling in the control plane is
returned to the PTNorig, which forwards the call to the PTNterm, eventually via a transit network (PTNtran), in which
the call is terminated at the called party's (CdPy) line.
Scenario D is an example of a call in which SPorig is involved. In this scenario, the signalling in the control plane is
forwarded from the PTNorig to SPorig which provides a service to the call. The signalling in the control plane is then
returned to the PTNorig, which forwards the call to the PTNterm, eventually via a transit network (PTNtran). Then, the
control plane signalling is forwarded from the PTNterm to SPterm which provides a service to the call. The signalling
in the control plane is then returned to the PTNterm, in which the call is terminated at the called party's (CdPy) line.
It is evident that a range of ETSI standards need to be invoked for the provision of the SPAI supporting UNI and NNI
configurations e.g. DSS1 [12], ISUP [13], [14], [15], [16], GSM MAP [17], INAP CS1, CS2, CS3 [18], [19], CAMEL
[20]). Implementation of these standards will lead to protocol-specific implementations of SP applications.

6.1 API - Architectures
EG 201 899 [21] models service provider requirements using an API approach that leads to API definitions in
ES 201 915-1 [22] and documents EG 201 988-1 [23] and EG 201 988-2 [24] cover open service access API
requirements.
An API modelling approach is referenced in the architecture under consideration in EP TIPHON. API modelling is
being developed in the JAIN and PARLAY consortia and standardized in ETSI WG SPAN12 and 3GPP WG CN5. The
following figure shows how different network technologies existing in today's networks can be integrated through API
to the application control plane.

the PICS proforma for OPEN-INAP will be applied to the CS-2 interfaces noted above.

7.4 SP-PNO Scenarios analysed in this ETSI Guide
The following figure identifies the results for the various SP-PNO configurations contained in clauses 8 and 9. The
direct cases apply when the SPAI is connected to the same network as the SP' service user, whilst in the indirect case.

8 Protocol Aspects
8.1 Impact of a service provider's access interface on the UNI between network operators and
service providers
Any UNI that provides a circuit-related service provider interface will need to transfer additional information as well as the existing basic call requirements. Table 10 shows the
results of the analysis of the Service Provider Access Requirements against a Service Provider Access Interface configured using DSS.1 (1993, 1998, 2001). Support mechanism
and parameters are indicated in table 10.
