ETSI ES 201 915-1

This ETSI Specification defines an Interface Description Language (IDL) specification for a set of APIs from the SCF/Gateway function to 3rd Party Service Application Interface utilising Object oriented techniques, namely UML. It is based upon a set of Interface Class descriptions in UML provided by NA6. The specification aims to provide a suitable generic solution to the ETSI Service Provider Access requirements (SPAR). The specification will be provided in two parts. Part 1 providing the Generic IDL and the Part 2 providing a mapping between existing INAP operations and IDL to ensure, for example, that existing IN service Call Control capabilities are catered for on the 3rd party service application interface. As the specification evolves there will be a need to ensure that any new service capabilities provided on the 3rd party service application interface are reflected over the IN interfaces. (See second page for architecture and further clarification). This Part 1 defines the Interface Description Language (IDL) specification for a set of APIs from the SCF/Gateway function to 3rd Party Service Application Interface.
