SIST EN 301 029-7:2000

SIST EN 301 029-7:2000 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 301 029-7 V1.1.3, a European Telecommunications Standard for Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (B-ISDN) signalling. It specifies the ATM end system address used for the calling and called party in the B-ISDN User Part (B-ISUP) over Signalling System No.7 (SS7). Engineers working on B-ISDN, SS7, switching, and network node interface signalling use it to keep addressing consistent during call setup and related control.

What does SIST EN 301 029-7:2000 specify?

SIST EN 301 029-7:2000 specifies the ATM end system address for the calling and called party in B-ISDN signalling. In practice, that means it defines the addressing element used when a network has to identify who is originating a call and who is being called.

The foreword places SIST EN 301 029-7:2000 in the B-ISUP signalling capability set 2, step 1, and shows how it fits into the wider multi-part series. The document is a focused part of that series rather than a general B-ISDN overview, so readers use it together with the broader B-ISUP set when they are implementing or checking signalling behaviour.

What are the key requirements of SIST EN 301 029-7:2000?

SIST EN 301 029-7:2000 carries one key technical message: the ATM end system address is the subject of the part, and it applies to both the calling and called party. For implementers, that is the address information that must be handled correctly when a B-ISDN connection is established.

The endorsement notice says that all elements of ITU-T Recommendation Q.2726.1 (1996) apply. In practice, this means the EN is not a shortened summary - users should treat the ITU-T recommendation as the technical basis for the detailed signalling behaviour.

The foreword identifies SIST EN 301 029-7:2000 as part of a larger B-ISUP capability set. That matters because the address definition is meant to work within a signalling system, not as a standalone address format used in isolation.

The standard sits in the context of SS7 and B-ISDN. For a reader, that means it is relevant to network signalling, switching and interworking tasks where call setup information must be exchanged between network nodes.

What terms does SIST EN 301 029-7:2000 define?

• B-ISDN - Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network, the broadband ISDN environment covered by the series.
• SS7 - Signalling System No.7, the signalling framework named in the title.
• B-ISUP - B-ISDN User Part, the signalling user part addressed by this part.
• NNI - Network node interface, the interface context named in the series list.
• ISDN - Integrated Services Digital Network, the wider digital network family used in the title and keywords.
• ATM - The address term used in this part for the end system address on the calling and called side.

Who uses SIST EN 301 029-7:2000?

SIST EN 301 029-7:2000 is used by telecom engineers, signalling protocol implementers, and switching-system designers working with B-ISDN and SS7. It is also relevant to interoperability and validation teams that need to check how end system addresses are handled during call setup.

Network operators and equipment suppliers use it when they configure or assess broadband signalling behaviour at the network node interface. Buyers and quality teams in telecom procurement may use it to confirm that a product or implementation covers the expected B-ISUP addressing function.

Which standards are used with SIST EN 301 029-7:2000?

SIST EN 301 029-7:2000 is based on ITU-T Recommendation Q.2726.1 (1996), and the endorsement notice states that all of its elements apply. That recommendation is therefore the main companion document for the technical detail behind this part.

The foreword also places this part within the broader B-ISUP capability set 2, step 1 series. The related parts listed there are Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6, Part 9, and Part 10.

What does the SIST EN 301 029-7:2000 document contain?

SIST EN 301 029-7:2000 contains the standard identification, copyright and IPR notices, the foreword, national transposition dates, an endorsement notice, and document history. The foreword maps this part into the wider B-ISUP series and identifies the companion parts.

The document history records the publication path of the ETSI version through Public Enquiry, Vote, and Publication. The front matter also includes the keywords and references that help users place the standard in the B-ISDN and SS7 technical area.
