1 Scope
The present document lists the first set of requirements that public network operators have for the delivery of service
provider access. These requirements are intended to facilitate a non-discriminatory access to public telecommunication
networks for service providers.
The present document does not fully take into account the service capability requirements from a service provider's
perspective, these aspects are defined in EG 201 722 [7]. The two documents EG 201 722 [7] and the present document
should not be considered separately for implementation.
The scope of the present document is to present generic functional requirements regarding the service provider access.
The priority of each requirement is based on the need perceived from the public network operator´s viewpoint. Service
interaction aspects are outside the scope of the present document. To fulfil these requirements, appropriate protocols
and/or provisions may have to be developed taking into account network integrity, security, charging, and other
considerations expressed in the present document.
Clause 4 contains introductory text describing the background and motivations of the requirements of service provider
access. Clause 5 contains a description of the functional requirements of the service provider access interface. These
requirements need to be considered additional to the requirements specified in EG 201 722 [7].
The present document relates to the role of the service provider and the role of the public telecommunications network
operator, with the realization that market players may act in multiple roles. This is in alignment with the current
European legislation, which specifies that all capabilities utilized by a significant market power network operator's
internal service provisional body, shall also be offered on equal terms to external entities.

3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purpose of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply:
firewall: means of preventing external parties from directly accessing internal network resources. All signalling to
internal network resources are directed via an entity dedicated to that purpose.
mapping: systematic way of converting messages from one signalling system to messages of another signalling system.
public telecommunications network: telecommunications network which provides telecommunications services to the
general public [4].
public telecommunications network operator: entity which is responsible for the development, provisioning and
maintenance of telecommunications services to the general public and for operating the corresponding networks [4].
public telecommunications network originating: PTN to which either the originating line is directly connected or in
which an incoming call initiates a service.
public telecommunications network terminating: PTN to which either the terminating line is directly connected or in
which the terminating line's user profile is stored.
screening: process involving intercepting signalling messages to check their contents before allowing them to continue,
or rejecting them.
service provider: entity which provides services to its service subscribers on a contractual basis and who is responsible
for the services offered. The same organization may act as a public telecommunications network operator and a service
provider [4].
service provider originating: service provider that provides either services relating to the originating line (or to the
originating profile), or services acting on the information coming from the originating or incoming call.
service provider terminating: service provider that provides either services relating to the terminating line (or to the
terminating profile), or services acting on the call-related information coming from the terminating party's line.
service provider access: access facility that enables a service provider to access specific functionality of a public
telecommunications network.
service provider access interface: interface between a public telecommunications network and a service provider´s
equipment for enabling the service provider to access specific functionality of a public telecommunications network.
service provider access requirement: requirement for a service provider´s access to specific functionality of a public
telecommunications network.
special network access: access at network termination points other than the more commonly provided network
termination points, such as the conventional user-network interfaces (see Directive 98/10/EC [2]).

4 Introduction
4.1 General
The aim of the present document is to define the requirements that need to be met when service providers wish to access
functionality in the public telecommunication networks of PTNOs. Such requirements will generally apply to the
interface between the PTNO and the SP. In EG 201 722 [7] the functional requirements which apply to this access
interface from the perspective of service providers are specified.
The requirements in EG 201 722 [7] however do not adequately take into account the network integrity, charging or
other aspects from a PTNO's perspective, that nevertheless needs to be clearly specified if the PTNO is to provide
reliable and secure network access to the service provider. These technical conditions would in most cases be applicable
to both the PTNO and the SP but there are clearly instances when the requirements may have to be given special and
different treatment by the PTNO.
It is therefore important to ensure that the functional specifications defined in EG 201 722 [7] fully respect the technical
criterion applicable to integrity, charging, and other key aspects that are of vital importance to both PTNOs and SPs.
The requirements defined in the present document are from a PTNO's perspective and should therefore be read in
conjunction with EG 201 722 [7].
4.2 Regulatory aspects
The present document outlines the current regulatory criterion which is applicable to service providers requesting
"special network access" from the PTNO. These criteria primarily emanate from Article 16 of the Voice Telephony
directive (see Directive 98/10/EC [2]) that places obligations on "significant market power" organizations to respond to
"reasonable requests" for special network access.
Hence all NRAs in EU countries will be under an obligation to implement in national regulation the requirements of the
EU directives and this means PTNOs nominated as having significant market power will need to comply with special
network access requirements. It will be a matter for NRAs in each country to decide if they wish to go further and apply
the EU requirements to "non-significant market power" organizations but there are clearly no obligations for member
states to take these steps.
There are requirements in the directive to ensure that network integrity is fully respected and this means that both public
telecommunication network operators and service providers will need to ensure that network integrity requirements are
incorporated in their network facilities. The European Committee for Telecommunications Regulatory Affairs
(ECTRA) recommendations on network integrity (see CEPT/ECTRA Recommendation (98)01 [1]) and the European
Telecommunications Platform (ETP) guideline report on network integrity (see ETP guidline in Bibliography) outline
