44、exes of this Recommendation which describe the general and transport specific issues relating to the STC. The following clauses of this Recommendation describe the BICC protocol as a series of exceptions to ITU-T 4.761 to 4.765. 7 Exceptions to ITU-T Q.761 7.1 General The BICC protocol is an adaptat

45、ion of the ISUP protocol definition, but it is not peer-to-peer compatible with ISUP. The BICC protocol does include the compatibility mechanism of ISUP and a similar mechanism within the BICC APM user application. Thus: 1) Peer-to-peer compatibility of versions of BICC can be assured, as described

46、for ISUP in clause 6/Q.761. 2) The compatibility mechanism at a Serving Node (ISN/TSN/GSN) acts as at an ISUP exchange, and thus the introduction of BICC into a network using ISUP signalling does not degrade the ability to introduce new signalling versions into the network, e.g. an ISN receiving an

47、unrecognized ISUP parameter will handle it according to 2.9.YQ.764, Compatibility rules, passing it on to BICC if required. 7.2 BICC uses an APM user application to transfer signalling information. Thus, in order to provide forward and backward compatibility within BICC, a compatibility mechanism is

48、 introduced for the information elements transferred by this mechanism. Forward and Backward Compatibility for the BICC APM user application See Bibliography. 8 ITU-T 0.1901 (06/2000) COPYRIGHT International Telecommunications Union/ITU TelecommunicationsLicensed by Information Handling ServicesThis

49、 compatibility mechanism remains unchanged for all capability sets andor subsets of the BICC protocol defined in this Recommendation. It is based on compatibility information sent with all signalling information. The compatibility method eases the network operation, for example: for the typical case of a BICC signalling protocol mismatch during a network upgrading; to interconnect two networks at different functional levels; for networks using different subsets of the same BICC protocol, etc. NOTE - A node may be at a different functional level due to having implemented a different capabilit
