SIST EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3:2003 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3 for Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (B-ISDN) DSS2 protocol connection characteristics during call and connection establishment. It specifies the Test Suite Structure and Test Purposes (TSS&TP) for the user side at the TB reference point, or the coincident SB/TB reference point, so implementers and test labs can check conformance to EN 301 067-1. This part is the conformance-test design document for the user; another part of the series covers the Abstract Test Suite (ATS) and PIXIT proforma.
What does SIST EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3:2003 specify?
SIST EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3:2003 specifies the user TSS&TP for implementations of the DSS2 layer 3 signalling rules used for connection negotiation during call or connection establishment in B-ISDN. It is aimed at the user side of the user-network interface, at the TB reference point or the coincident SB/TB reference point.
The document is organized into these main clauses:
- Clause 1: Scope
- Clause 2: References
- Clause 3: Definitions and abbreviations
- Clause 4: Test Suite Structure (TSS)
- Clause 5: Test Purposes (TP)
- Clause 6: Compliance
- Clause 7: Requirements for a comprehensive testing service
Clause 4 gives the overall test grouping, and Clause 5 turns that structure into named test purposes that can be mapped to PICS items. Clause 6 states what a compliant ATS must do, while Clause 7 sets the minimum testing method for a comprehensive service.
What are the key requirements of SIST EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3:2003?
SIST EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3:2003 is mainly a testing specification, so its key requirements are about how to structure, name, and apply conformance tests.
- Clause 4 groups the TSS around signalling procedures at the coincident SB/TB and TB reference points. In practice, this tells the tester which user-side interface behavior belongs in this part of the suite.
- Clause 5.1 defines a TP naming convention based on the suite identifier, group, and sequence number. This matters because ATS selection and reporting depend on consistent test names.
- Clause 5.1.2 and 5.1.3 state that the TPs are based on EN 301 067-1 and derived from its externally observable behavior together with EN 301 067-2. In practice, tests focus on what the implementation actually sends, receives, and states, not on internal design.
- Clause 5.1.4 uses call-state checking through the STATUS ENQUIRY and STATUS exchange defined in EN 300 443-1. This matters when a TP ends in a specific final call state and the lab must confirm it.
- Clause 5.2.1.1 covers negotiation at the origination interface. The IUT is tested on whether it starts negotiation with the correct SETUP content and moves through the expected call state.
- Clause 5.2.1.2 covers acceptance behavior at the destination interface. The TPs check whether the IUT accepts acceptable traffic parameters, rejects unacceptable combinations, and responds with the appropriate signalling messages and call-state changes.
- Clause 6 requires a compliant ATS to match the TP set or an allowed subset, use the same naming conventions, preserve the link between PICS items and test selection, and comply with ISO/IEC 9646-2. This is what makes different test realizations traceable to the same standard.
- Clause 7 says that a comprehensive testing service for equipment claiming conformance to EN 301 067-1 shall use the Remote test method from ISO/IEC 9646-2. That affects how an organization sets up its test environment.
What terms does SIST EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3:2003 define?
- Abstract Test Method (ATM) - the testing approach used to observe the Implementation Under Test from the lower tester.
- Abstract Test Suite (ATS) - the set of abstract test cases derived from the Test Purposes.
- Implementation Under Test (IUT) - the user-side implementation being checked for conformance.
- Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) - the declaration that identifies which options and features the implementation supports.
- Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing (PIXIT) - extra implementation-specific information needed to run the tests.
- Test Purpose (TP) - a statement of what one test case is intended to verify.
- Test Suite Structure (TSS) - the grouping scheme that organizes the TPs into test groups.
Who uses SIST EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3:2003?
SIST EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3:2003 is used by test laboratories, protocol implementers, and conformance engineers working on B-ISDN and DSS2 user-side equipment. Quality managers and buyers use it to understand what a conformance test program for EN 301 067-1 should cover.
It is especially relevant when a team needs to:
- build an ATS from the defined TPs
- select relevant tests using a PICS
- verify SETUP, CONNECT, RELEASE COMPLETE, and related signalling behavior
- confirm call-state transitions at the user interface
- plan a remote conformance test method for network equipment
Which standards are used with SIST EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3:2003?
- EN 301 067-1 - the base protocol specification; the TPs are based on it.
- EN 301 067-2 - the PICS proforma used to select applicable tests.
- ISO/IEC 9646-1 - the general conformance testing framework and definitions for ATM, ATS, IUT, PICS, PIXIT, and TP.
- ISO/IEC 9646-2 - the ATS specification rules and remote test method referenced by the compliance clauses.
- ITU-T Recommendation I.413 - defines the B-ISDN user-network interface reference points.
- ETS 300 406 - gives the testing and specification methodology used for protocol conformance testing.
- EN 300 443-1 - supplies the layer 3 call-state procedures used for final call-state verification.
- ITU-T Recommendation Q.2963.1 - a related DSS2 connection-modification reference named in the references.
What does the SIST EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3:2003 document contain?
SIST EN 301 067-3 V1.1.3:2003 contains the test suite structure diagram and a set of test purposes for negotiation of traffic parameters during call and connection establishment. Clause 4 presents the overall TSS, and Clause 5 breaks the TP set into origination-interface and destination-interface procedures.
The TP section covers negotiation request, negotiation acceptance, traffic parameter negotiation procedures, and negotiation confirmation. The document also states how final call states are checked, how TP names are formed, and how PICS entries are used for test selection.
Clauses 6 and 7 give the compliance rules for an ATS and the minimum remote method for a comprehensive testing service.
