[Miguel Garcia <[e-mail]>]

So can someone summarize what should be the wording of requirement 
TIP-3. It currently says.

     REQ-TIP-3:
         The identity mentioned in REQ-TIP-1 is considered an end user
         supplied information that is not asserted by the network.

We have a special arrangement in both situations, but my assumption is that we do this because we have very few ISDN subscribers.

This number is represented in the PSTN world by the generic number in ISUP, and as the first presented Connected number information element when there are two presented.

The connected user has been authenticated by the connected user network. If the calling network and the connected user network are diffferent networks, the calling network trusts the connected user network in asserting that users identity. In the existing PSTN/ISDN that trust only occurs if the two networks are public networks, or if the connected user network supplies one of a set of numbers that can be validated by some supporting public network.

It is not given to an end terminal user, and the supplying enterprise network might be expected to authenticate the end user before supplying the number, or rely on its own trust arrangements. While it cannot be policed in the signalling, it is a privilege that can be expected to be taken away if it is abused. The capability is necessary as the enterprise network may be allowed to break into the public network at a remote connect point (for tariff reasons) and the public network has insufficient knowledge to know if the number supplied really belongs to that user.
