This document details specific MTP Levels 2 and 3 NIIF recommended Compatibility tests to verify the compatibility of two networks during interconnection. These are a recommended set of minimum tests for levels two and three of the SS7 protocol. Compatibility testing verifies correct interworking of two SS7 implementations. The tests are for the interconnecting of two given implementations and performed not only on new signaling points, but also between already connected signaling points. The tests in this document include complete test scripts divided into Intrusive Tests and Non-Intrusive Tests. Where applicable, this document may address NGN aspects.
