8、commendation X.488 was prepared by ITU-T Study Group 7 (1997-2000) and was approved under the WTSC Resolution No. 1 procedure on the 18th of June 1999. Recommendation X.488 (06/99) - 1 STD-ITU-T RECMN %.488-ENGL 1SSP 4-862531 Ob64574 T7 .I FOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the
9、United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommuni- cations. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the ITU. The ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standar
10、dizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. 1 The World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of Recommendations by
11、the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation the tem recognized operating
12、agency (ROA) includes any individual, company, corporation or governmental organization that operates a public correspondence service. The terms Administration, ROA and public correspondence are defined in the Constitution of the ITU (Geneva, 1992). INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS The ITU draws attenti
13、on to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. The ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or othe
14、rs outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, the ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not repre

18、 in a distributed open system environment. Message Handling provides for the exchange of messages between users on a store-and-forward basis. A message submitted by one user (the originator) is transferred through the Message Transfer System (MTS) and delivered to one or more users (the recipients).
19、 The MTS comprises a number of Message Transfer Agents (MTAs), which transfer messages and deliver them to their recipients. To evaluate the capabilities of a particular implementation, it is necessary to have a statement of which capabilities and options have been implemented for a given OS1 protoc
20、ol. Such a statement is called a Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS). iv Recommendation X.488 (06/99) STDmITU-T RECMN X-4BB-ENGL 1999 W 4Bb2591 0hb4577 798 W Recommendation X.488 MESSAGE HANDLING SYSTEMS - EDI-MS ATTRIBUTES PICS PROFORMA (Geneva, 1999) 1 Scope This Recommendation pr

A.0 Instructions and identification A.O.l Instructions A.O.l.1 Purpose of
36、the proforma The purpose of the PICS proforma is to provide suppliers of implementations of the W protocol with a consistent means of stating which proforma has been implemented. The proforma is in the form of a questionnaire and consists of a set of items. An item is provided for each capability fo
37、r which an implementation choice is allowed. Items are also provided for mandatory capabilities for which no implementation choice is allowed. Each item includes an item number, an item description, a status value specifying the support requirement, and room for a support answer to be provided by th
38、e supplier. . A.0.1.2 Item numbering Each line in the PICS proforma which requires implementation detail to be entered is given a number in the first column. The item number column provides a means of uniquely referencing each possible answer within the PICS proforma. A.0.1.3 Base column In each tab
39、le, the “Base“ column reflects the level of support required for conformance to the base standard. The following classifications are used in this PICS to specify static conformance requirements - i.e. capability. NOTE -The Profile column is used for functional profiles and uses the same classificati
40、on. In the case of protocol elements, the classification is relative to that of the containing element, if any. Where the constituent elements of a non-primitive element are not individually specified, then each shall be considered to have the classification of that element. Where the range of value
41、s to be supported for an element is not specified, then all values defined in the MHS base standards shall be supported. mandatory support (m): The element or feature shall be fully supported. An implementation shall be able to generate the element, and/or receive the element and perform all associa
42、ted procedures (Le. implying the ability to handle both the syntax and the semantics of the element) as relevant, as specified in the MHS base standards. Where support for origination (generation) and reception are not distinguished, then both capabilities shall be assumed. Mandatory support of an M
43、S attribute for the MS requires that it is supported in the context of all applicable supported operation arguments and results. Mandatory support of an MS attribute by the MS-user requires that it is supported in the context of at least one supported operation argument and result. The way in which
44、attribute values are stored by an MS implementation, or used by a UA implementation, is otherwise a local matter. Copyright release for PICS proformas Users of this Recommendation may freely reproduce the PICS proforma in this annex so that it can be used for its intended purpose and may further pub
45、lish the completed PICS. Recommendation X.488 (06199) 3 optional support (o),: An implementation is not required to support the element or feature. If support is claimed, the element shall be treated as if it were specified as mandatory support. If support is not claimed, and the element is an argum
46、ent, then an implementation shall generate an appropriate error indication if the element is received. If support is not claimed, and the element is a result, then an implementation may ignore the element if it is received. If support of an operation as a responder is not claimed, then an appropriat
47、e error indication shall be generated (as a minimum, a ROSE reject shall be generated). conditional support (c): The element shall be supported under the conditions specified in this Recommendation. If these conditions are met, the element shall be treated as if it were specified as mandatory suppor
48、t. If these conditions are not met, the element shall be treated as if it were specified as optional support (unless otherwise stated). out of scope (i): The element is outside the scope of this Recommendation -Le. it will not be the subject of a conformance test. not applicable (-): The element is
49、not applicable in the particular context in which this classification is used. A.0.1.4 Support column The “Support“ column is provided for completion by the supplier of the implementation as follows: Y N - or blank The element or feature is fully supported (i.e. satisfying the requirements of the m profile support classification). The element or feature is not supported, further qualified to indicate the action taken on receipt of such an element as follows: ND - the element is discardedhgnored; NR - the PDU is rejected (with an appropriate error indication where
