The present document is structured in a similar manner to ETSI TS 181 005 [2] and the main clause numbering from this point in the document onwards therefore follows that document, with the scope of those clauses also following that of ETSI TS 181 005 [2].
The present document specifies network requirements:
to support connection and interoperation of business communication capabilities (either hosted in NGCN or NGN) to the NGN; and

to support connection and interoperation of business communication capabilities to other business communication capabilities located in or connected to the ISDN and PSTN; and
