10、y Experience with the International Freephone Service has shown that carriers have developed their own service order forms that are different to Annexes A, B, C and D of the existing Recommendation. Consequently, the service order forms have been amended to better suit the actual need for informatio

11、n exchange between carriers. In addition, a global change has been made to ensure that the use of terms and definitions are consistent throughout the Recommendation. Source ITU-T Recommendation E.152 was approved on 11 May 2006 by ITU-T Study Group 2 (2005-2008) under the Resolution 1 procedure. ii

12、ITU-T Rec. E.152 (05/2006) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operatin

13、g and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produ

14、ce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this

15、 Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. inter

16、operability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest th

17、at compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence,

18、validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be

19、required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. ITU 2007 All rights reserved.

E.152 (05/2006) 1 ITU-T Recommendation E.152 International freephone service 1 Scope This Recommendation provides the service description for the International Freephone Service (IFS), along with information on the service ordering process and other service operational aspects. 2 R

25、eferences The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All Recommendations and other references are subject to revision;

26、users of this Recommendation are therefore encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the Recommendations and other references listed below. A list of the currently valid ITU-T Recommendations is regularly published. The reference to a document within this Recom

27、mendation does not give it, as a stand-alone document, the status of a Recommendation. ITU-T Recommendation D.115 (2004), Tariff principles and accounting for the International Freephone Service (IFS). ITU-T Recommendation E.105 (1992), International telephone service. ITU-T Recommendation E.169.1 (

28、2001), Application of Recommendation E.164 numbering plan for universal international freephone numbers for international freephone service. 3 Terms and definitions This Recommendation defines the following terms: 3.1 IFS access provider: A Recognized Operating Agency (ROA) in the country of origin

29、of the call which is responsible for ensuring the establishment of access to the international freephone number in that country. 3.2 IFS provider: The Recognized Operating Agency (ROA) which provides the international freephone service to the IFS customer and is responsible for all relations with th

30、e IFS customer concerning the international freephone service. 3.3 IFS customer: The individual or entity who (or which) obtains an international freephone service from an IFS service provider, and is responsible for payment of all charges due to that IFS service provider. 3.4 IFS caller: The person

31、 who places a call to an international freephone number. 3.5 routing number: A number format specified by the IFS service provider which identifies the called IFS customer and the originating country for routing purposes. The international freephone number dialled by the IFS caller is translated in

32、the country of call origination to this special routing number before the call is transferred to the IFS service provider. 4 Service definition 4.1 The international freephone service (IFS): Enables an IFS customer in one country to be assigned one or more special telephone numbers in other countrie

33、s which allow IFS callers in those countries to call the IFS customer free of charge. All service and call-related charges are paid by the IFS customer. 2 ITU-T Rec. E.152 (05/2006) 4.2 The international freephone service is provided by bilateral agreement between IFS service providers and IFS servi

34、ce access providers. Participating IFS service providers and IFS service access providers may choose to adopt any, or all, of the specific access methods indicated below: a) Access Method No. 1 Access in the country of origin via dialling a national freephone number. A number is assigned to the IFS

35、customer from the available national freephone numbers in each country from which the IFS customer wishes to receive IFS calls. The IFS caller dials the national freephone number, which is translated into a routing number and routed to the country of destination. Due to variations in freephone numbe

36、r structure among countries, it is likely that the assigned number cannot be the same in each country. NOTE 1 Some countries may use within their national numbering scheme differing national prefixes for freephone numbers which terminate calls within the country and for freephone numbers which termi

37、nate calls in another country. For the purpose of this Recommendation, both are national freephone numbers. b) Access Method No. 2 Access in the country of origin via international direct dialling of a foreign domestic freephone number. Access Method 2 has been withdrawn from this Recommendation. NO

38、TE 2 Although Access Method No. 2 has been withdrawn as an access method for IFS, the same dialling format may still be used for caller-paid IDD calls to domestic freephone numbers in other countries. c) Access Method No. 3 Access in the country of origin via dialling a universal international freep

39、hone number. A unique Universal International Freephone Number (UIFN) that is the same throughout the world is assigned to the IFS customer. The IFS caller dials the international prefix followed by the UIFN, which is translated into a routing number and routed to the country of destination. A UIFN

40、facilitates uniform global access to the IFS customer from all IFS service access providers who choose to offer this feature. The UIFN should be portable, giving IFS customers the ability to retain their UIFNs when changing IFS service providers. The UIFN access method can only be used where the int

41、ernational freephone service requested by the IFS customer is between two or more countries. The following chart compares some aspects of each of the access methods: Access method Country of destination identified in the dialled number One universally unique number No. 1 No No No. 3 No Yes 4.3 Throu

42、ghout this Recommendation, the IFS provider is the provider of the international freephone service to the IFS customer and is responsible for all relations with the IFS customer concerning the international freephone service. The IFS access provider is the ROA in the country of origin of the call th

43、at is responsible for the establishment of the access to the international freephone number in that country. Figure 1 depicts the relationship of the IFS provider and the IFS access provider as regards the direction of call flow. ITU-T Rec. E.152 (05/2006) 3 Figure 1/E.152 General environment of int

44、ernational freephone service 5 Service management This clause contains the administrative procedures concerning service ordering, service operation, number assignment, and data collection for each of the two IFS access methods (known as methods 1 and 3 for historical reasons). The IFS provider has t

45、he responsibility of processing all applications received on behalf of their IFS customer and will: obtain numbers requested by the IFS customer if available or an acceptable alternative; ensure that IFS customers do not promote their assigned international freephone number before the customer due d

46、ate; notify the IFS customer that: a) international freephone numbers are intended to allow IFS callers to call the IFS customer and may not be sold, licensed, or traded. Nor may they be transferred, except in the case of a merger, acquisition, or joint venture. The IFS customer must inform their IF

47、S service provider of any such transfer; b) the assignment of an international freephone number does not create an ownership interest, right or claim to the international freephone number on the part of the IFS customer. As the originator and interface with the IFS customer, the IFS provider has ove

48、rall control responsibilities to ensure the satisfactory completion of the service order for initiation, change, suspension and disconnection of service. The IFS provider and the IFS access provider should each appoint a contact person responsible for all general matters relating to IFS (a “service

49、manager“), as well as specific contacts for service ordering, testing and fault reporting. Information on these contacts should be exchanged between the IFS provider and the IFS access provider. 5.1 Service ordering General procedure The IFS provider will originate the service order on behalf of the IFS customer. The service order is sent via telefax or other mutually agreed telecommunication to the IFS access provider. A separate service order form should be sent to each IFS access provider from whom the IFS custo
