SUMMARYSUMMARY

SEC processed 802 valid USMTF test messages and 111 scripted error USMTF test messages on CMP v 4.7.6.0 & JMPS v 4.7.6.0

Processing valid test messages yielded the following results: - CMP identified four valid test messages as invalid: - three valid test messages were invalid due to message text

errors - one valid test message, MET.CF (F251), generated a "warning"

message due to ambiguous Field Format Index Reference Number (FFIRN) information in Set MSTA field 2

Processing scripted error messages yielded the following results: - CMP identified 2 scripted error messages (BDAREP PHASE 2,

D280 & RASREQ, D400) as valid due to structural notation anomalies.

SUMMARYSUMMARY

SEC directed and conducted CMP v 4.7.6.0 & JMPS v 4.7.6.0 Standards Conformance Testing for conformance to the MIL-STD-6040, USMTF 2007 baseline, from 10 thru 13 October 2006

CMP v 4.7.6.0 & JMPS v 4.7.6.0 was installed on Linux Enterprise 4.0, Solaris 8.0, Windows XP Professional, & Windows 2000 Professional operating platforms

No critical CMP or JMPS errors occurred during testing

SEC provided the Final Test Report to JITC on 8 DEC 2006 recommending certification for CMP v 4.7.6.0 & JMPS v 4.7.6.0 in compliance with the MIL-STD-6040 2007 USMTF baseline
