A method for evaluating a presentation layer data unit wherein, in order to evaluate a presentation layer data unit, which contains application-oriented messages that are coded according to a predefined coding protocol and destined for at least one application process running on a Q3 platform, and which is received via an association established on a Q3 interface between the Q3 platform and a partner Q3 platform, the Q3 platform checks the format of the data unit for compliance with the coding protocol. Provided there are no errors in the coding, the user data contained in the data unit is decoded, the application-oriented messages are determined, and these messages are forwarded to the appropriate application process(es). However, if an error concerning the user data is detected in the coding, then the evaluation is terminated and a corresponding error report is sent to the application process concerned. This application process then generates an error response to the coding error in the form of an application error message, and sends it to the partner Q3 platform.
A method for evaluating a presentation layer data unit, which contains application-oriented messages, coded according to a predefined coding protocol for at least one application process running on a Q3 platform, the method comprising the steps of:
A Q3 platform with at least one Q3 interface, on which associations with a partner Q3 platform can be established, comprising:
