1   Introduction

This document describes how Ericsson Signaling TCAP ITU / ETSI / TTC / Chinese version complies with the TTC standards of 1997 specified in the following documents:

Note however that the TTC standard specifications conform to the draft texts ITU-T Recommendation Q.771(to Q.774), studied at ITU-T SG11 meeting in February 1996. Regardless of this they are here treated as conferment against ITU-T (06/97).

For reasons of clarity, compliance with the ITU-T (06/97) recommendations detailed in the following documents are also described, as the TTC standard in practice is based on these:

1.1   Concept

This section will explain the different concepts that will be used in the compliance lists. The terms that are used are:

C Ericsson module complies with the specified paragraph in the standard.
N Ericsson module does not comply with the specified paragraph in the standard.
P Ericsson module complies partly with the specified paragraph in the standard. Specify in a note what in the module that does comply and what that does not.
- There is nothing to implement in the referred paragraph (used in column “C”).

3   Notes

Note 1 TCAP ITU / ETSI / TTC / Chinese supports the definition of most of the specified groups, but does not group the raw measurements together.
Note 2 Faults are reported on each occurrence.
Note 3 Accounting measurements are for further study in the ITU-T standard
Note 4 Segmentation is not supported in TCAP ITU / ETSI / TTC / Chinese; all segmentation or reassemble must be performed by the TC-user.
Note 5 TCAP ITU / ETSI / TTC / Chinese provides the raw measurements necessary to calculate these statistics.
Note 6 No measurements in table 14.1, section 5.3(Q.752) are logged per destination address.
Note 7 No measurements in table 14.4 through 14.6, section 5.3(Q.752) are logged per destination address. The address may instead be obtained from the alarms raised by TCAP ITU / ETSI / TTC / Chinese which are logged on every occurrence.
Note 8 The supported management primitives requires that the information is directed to a specific subsystem. It is up to SCCP to send the information to each an every subsystem that is to be informed.
Note 9 The Length of Contents element has a maximum length of 3 octets.
Note 10 The Remote Cancel by the TC-user is applicable to the TC-user only.
Note 11 Applicable to the TC-user only.
Note 12 States ‘Wait for Reject’ and ‘Reject Pending’ are not implemented in TCAP ITU / ETSI / TTC / Chinese.
Note 13 Invoke IDs may be reallocated immediately on return of the corresponding Invocation State Machine to the Idle State.
Note 14 TCAP ITU / ETSI / TTC / Chinese checks for a Sequence of Externals in User Information but not the format of data within each External.
Note 15 Compare with this report of section 5.3(Q.752) for details.
Note 16 Support for distribution of SCCP management primitives are retained in TCAP ITU / ETSI / TTC / Chinese, but the usage is optional.
Note 17 Additional change of originating address according to the standard 3G TS 23.006 (Support of Mobile Number Portability) also supported
