The Interoperability Experimentation, Test and Validation (IETV) NATO UNCLASSIFIED
IETV: Interoperability Experimentation, Testing and Validation Capability I E T V • The IETV (Interoperability Experimentation, Testing and Validation) is a capability in support of • CIS formal validation (as an input to certification), • Interoperability enhancement and • Experimentation for multinational, NATO-led expeditionary operations. • NC3B and ACT have sponsored the development of the IETV capability • High level of synergy with other programs: • ACO has funded some process-supporting tools • Several nations have actively participated as validation/testing counterparts
IETV: Interoperability Experimentation, Testing and Validation Capability How IETV can be used? The IETV is a distributed capability (NGCS, CFBLNet). Aims to reuse existing NATO and National assets. IETV can be used remotely trough CFBLNET or NGCS transmission networks. IETV can deploy to a national site and also use NC3A static facilities. IETV can deploy in an exercise like SFCE, CWID or CE to support Interoperability, Experimentation , Testing and Validation activities.
IETV: Interoperability Experimentation, Testing and Validation Capability What can be tested with IETV?
Overview of 2009 IETV Activities • SFCE 09 • Validation campaign LCC NRF-14 DDIV (HQ/Bgde). • Testing campaign LCC NRF-13 UK ARCC. • Automated tests with IATT for secure data services (SFCE 09 PTA NS and MS ) • Experiment campaign with 1GNC • IEG-Light MIP-DEM Proxy • IEG-Light VoIP Gateway • Experiment JCOP-XML NRDC-SP • Exercise Report. • CWID 09 • Emulation of Deployable CIS (DCIS) deployable Point of Presence (dPoP). • Provision of C2 NATO systems ( NIRIS, JCHAT, ICC and LC2IS). • Generation, Distribution and Visualization of the RAP. • ADatP3, NFFI and TDL IO Assessment • Automated tests, reports and assessment. • Exercise Report.
