The present document contains the validation (conformance) test specification for the application transport mechanism,
support of VPN applications with PSS1 information flows defined in ITU-T Recommendation Q.765.1 [9]. The present
document applies only to exchanges having implemented the ISUP v3 protocol specification for the Application Transport Mechanism and APM support of VPN applications for the exchange. It is applicable for validation testing of all types of exchanges as defined in the ISUP v3 protocol specification. The present document does not deal with compatibility testing.
The main body of the present document presents the protocol implementation conformance statements (PICS). The document EN 301 062-3 [1] presents the test suite structure and test purposes (TSS&TP) and the document EN 301 062-4 [2] presents the protocol implementation extra information for testing (PIXIT), protocol conformance test
report (PCTR) and the ATS for the Application Transport Mechanism, support of VPN applications with PSS1 information flows the last one being available on electronic media.

Number 7, Application Transport Mechanism, support of VPN applications with PSS1 information flows ITU-T
Recommendation Q.765.1 [9] is required to complete a copy of the PICS proforma provided in annex A in the present
document.
