2 Compliance

2.1 Concepts

The following abbreviations are used throughout this document:

C (=Compliant)		The implementation fully complies with the protocol specification.

N (=Not Compliant)		The feature described in the protocol specification is not implemented or is implemented in a completely different way. A comment is added in the latter case.

P (=Partially Compliant)		The implementation complies functionally with the protocol specification with some variations. A comment is added describing the deviation.

-		There is nothing to implement in the referred section of the protocol specification (always placed in column C).

N/A		The requirements in the referred section of the protocol specification are outside the scope of AIN Message Library (always placed in column C). The requirements may be of interest to an application that is using AIN Message Library.

2.2 GR-1299-CORE, Issue 10, November 2004

Following is a table where it is stated to what degree AIN Message Library complies with the requirements in each section of GR-1299-CORE (Reference [1]). GR-1299-CORE frequently refers to GR-1298-CORE, Reference [2].
