This Re

8、commendation is based on Recommendation ITU-T Q.3900. It gives a list of tests related to NGN technical means, NGN solutions and NGN services which shall be used in model and operator networks. Source Recommendation ITU-T Q.3901 was approved on 23 January 2008 by ITU-T Study Group 11 (2005-2008) und

9、er Recommendation ITU-T A.8 procedure. Keywords Model networks, next generation networks (NGN), PSTN, service testing, technical means, testing. ii Rec. ITU-T Q.3901 (01/2008) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommun

10、ications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunic

11、ations 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, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedur

12、e 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 Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecomm

13、unication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these

14、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 that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU dr

15、aws 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, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members

16、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 required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not re

Then one may confidently test a network of NGN T

43、M, as described in clause 5.2. After these tests are complete, service testing may be executed, as discussed in clause 5.3. 5.1 NGN TM local testing methodology The NGN TM local testing procedure includes several testing stages. The NGN TM local testing scheme is as shown in Figure 5-1. The first st

44、age of NGN TM local testing is based on the methodology described in ITU-T X.295 and ETSI TS 102 237-1 and ETSI TS 102 237-2. All technical means shall be checked for conformance to ITU-T Recommendations and ETSI standards Rec. ITU-T Q.3901 (01/2008) 5 under the methodology defined in ITU-T X.290, e

45、specially through the use of TSS&TP and PICS. The following stages shall include NGN TM functional testing, NGN TM functional local testing under load and NGN TM conformance local testing. A ring scheme is used in the methodology of NGN TM testing. All testing stages depend on the previous testing s

46、tage results. All NGN TM local tests shall be based on the existing and developing methodologies (Figure 5-1). The results of each NGN TM local testing shall be delivered to the global database, whose structure and data format are not defined in this Recommendation. Figure 5-1 NGN TM local testing m
