This International Standard provides guidance on dependability engineering of communication networks. It defines a general framework for the network dependability performance, provides a process for network dependability implementation and presents criteria and methodology for network technology designs, performance evaluation, security considerations, and quality of service measurement to achieve network dependability performance objectives. This International Standard addresses network developers and network equipment suppliers, network integrators and providers of network service functions for planning, evaluation and implementation of network dependability. The responsible Committee is K 132 "Zuverlässigkeit" ("Dependability") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
