4 Conformance
a) A PICS pro forma which conforms to this PICS pro forma specification shall be technically equivalent to
annex A of the IEEE Std 1609.2 [2] with the amendments of annex A of the present document and shall
preserve the numbering and ordering of the items in annex A.
b) The following clauses of the IEEE Std 1609.2 [2] are irrelevant for conformance with ETSI TS 103 097 [1]
and may be skipped:
- A.2.3.2 Certificate Revocation List (CRL) verification entity;
- A.2.3.3 Peer-to-Peer Certificate Distribution (P2PCD) functionality (S3.1, S3.2, S3.3, S3.4).
A PICS which conforms to the present document shall:
a) describe an implementation which claims to conform to ETSI TS 103 097 [1] and IEEE Std 1609.2 [2];
b) be based on a conforming PICS pro forma which has been completed in accordance with the instructions for
completion given in clause A.2;
c) include the information necessary to uniquely identify both the supplier and the implementation.

Annex A (normative):
Security PICS pro forma
A.1 The right to copy
Notwithstanding the provisions of the copyright clause related to the text of the present document, ETSI grants that
users of the present document may freely reproduce the Security PICS pro forma in this annex so that it can be used for
its intended purposes and may further publish the completed PICS pro forma.
A.2 Guidance for completing the PICS pro forma
A.2.1 Purposes and structure
The purpose of the present document is to provide a mechanism whereby a supplier of an implementation of the
requirements defined in relevant specifications may provide information about the implementation in a standardized
manner.
The PICS pro forma is subdivided into clauses for the following categories of information:
- instructions for completing the PICS pro forma;
- identification of the implementation;
- identification of the protocol;
- PICS pro forma tables (for example: major capabilities, etc.).
A.2.2 Abbreviations and conventions
This annex does not reflect dynamic conformance requirements but static ones. In particular, a condition for support of
a PDU parameter does not reflect requirements about the syntax of the PDU (i.e. the presence of a parameter) but the
capability of the implementation to support the parameter.
In the sending direction, the support of a parameter means that the implementation is able to send this parameter (but it
does not mean that the implementation always sends it).
In the receiving direction, it means that the implementation supports the whole semantic of the parameter that is
described in the main part of the present document.
The PICS pro forma contained in this annex is comprised of information in tabular form in accordance with the
guidelines presented in ISO/IEC 9646-7 [i.2].
Item column
The item column contains a number which identifies the item in the table.
Item description column
The item description column describes in free text each respective item (e.g. parameters, timers, etc.). It implicitly
means "is supported by the implementation?".
Status column
The status column describes the status of the item. The various status used in this annex are in accordance with the rules
described in IEEE Std 1609.2 [2], annex A.
ETSI
8 ETSI TS 103 096-1 V1.5.2 (2022-07)
Support column
The support column shall be filled in by the supplier of the implementation. The following common notations, defined
in ISO/IEC 9646-7 [i.2], are used for the support column:
Y or y supported by the implementation
N or n not supported by the implementation
N/A, n/a or - no answer required (allowed only if the status is N/A, directly or after evaluation of a conditional
status)
number value supported number or amount of items
References to items
For each possible item answer (answer in the support column) within the PICS pro forma there exists a unique
reference, used, for example, in the conditional expressions. It is defined as the table identifier, followed by a solidus
character "/", followed by the item number in the table.
EXAMPLE: A.5/2 is the reference to the answer of item 2 in table A.5.
A.2.3 Instructions for completing the PICS pro forma
The supplier of the implementation may complete the PICS pro forma in each of the spaces provided. More detailed
instructions are given at the beginning of the different clauses of the PICS pro forma.
A.3 Identification of the Equipment
A.3.1 Introduction
Identification of the Equipment shall be filled in so as to provide as much details as possible regarding version numbers
and configuration options.
Both the product supplier information and client information shall be filled in if they are different.
A person who can answer queries regarding information supplied in the PICS shall be named as the contact person.
