TM FORUM Implementation Statement (IS) Template and Guidelines  
2 Functional Implementation 
Statements (FIS) 
2.1 Overview 
This section provides Functional Implementation Statement (FIS) templates for the data structures (those that 
represent objects in the information model), operations and notifications in the MTNM version 3.5 IDL. These 
templates related to the functional aspects of the operations, notifications and data structures, i.e., whether or 
not particular capabilities are supported. The non-functional aspects of the operations, notifications and data 
structures are discussed in Section 3. Functional aspects relate to what an entity does, and non-functional 
aspects related to how an entity provides its functionality, e.g., how fast an operation request is fulfilled on 
average.  
2.1.1 FIS 
Template 
The following FIS templates are used for each module: 
Module Name, e.g., Managed Element 
Data Types 
A template (in the form of a table) needs to be provided for each second-level object associated with the 
module. The data type template has one row for each attribute of the second-level object.  
Interfaces 
A template (in the form of a table) needs to be provided for each interface associated with the module. 
The interface template has one row for each operation comprising the interface.  
Notifications 
A template (in the form of a table) needs to be provided for each notification associated with the module. 
The notification template has one row for each parameter of the notification.  
The individual components of the FIS template are explained in the following subsection.  
2.1.2 Data 
Types 
There is one table for each second-level object defined in the module.

Set When: C, L, A (see the note 
below for definition of these 
abbreviations) 
Set How: List operations that can 
be used to set the attribute’s 
value. Typically, this field would 
only be included if the attribute is 
settable by the NMS.

VALUE LIST (see the 
note below for 
definition of these 
abbreviations) 
The EMS supplier 
should state the 
maximum length for 
the attribute. The 
NMS supplier should 
also mention any 
length requirements.
