Overview

This new standard describes a generic methodology for dependability assessment and assurance of communication networks. It presents the network dependability assessment strategies and methodology for analysis of network topology, evaluation of dependability of service paths and optimization of network configurations in order to achieve network dependability performance and dependability of service. It also addresses the network dependability assurance strategies and methodology for application of network health check, network outage control and test case management to enhance and sustain dependability performance in network service operation. This standard is applicable to network service providers, network designers and developers, and network maintainers and operators of communication networks for assurance of network dependability performance and assessment of dependability of service. The responsible body is DKE/K 132 "Zuverlässigkeit" of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
