Type
Description
SS7 Node
Redundancy
name
String
Up to 40 chars.
Instant
The SS7 Node Redundancy name.
Internal OPC
String
Up to 20 chars.
Online
The Redundancy point code used for
communication between the Media
Gateway boards that belong to the same
MTP3 Group.
The Internal OPC must be unique for
each Media Gateway board that belongs
to the same MTP3 Group.
It is important to make sure that Internal
OPC does not duplicate any real point
code used in your SS7 network.
ALCAP OPC
String
Up to 20 chars.
Online
Relevant for broadband SS7 (UMTS)
configuration only.
The point code of the Media Gateway
board that processes the ALCAP
payload.
38.6.4.4
Advanced Configuration
Additional parameters and timers of MTP2/MTP3 signaling layers may be configured
via MTP2 Profile, SS7 Node Timers and SS7 Linkset Timers.
By default, a single instance of each profile entity is created and all MTP2/MTP3
entities are attached to it.
You can create additional MTP2/MTP3 Profiles and attach them to specific SS7
entities. Or, alternatively, modify the existing MTP2/MTP3 profile configurations.
38.6.4.5
STP Functionality (Alias Point Code)
The Mediant 8000 normally operates as a SP (Signaling Point) entity in the SS7
network. However, for some deployments, STP (Signaling Transfer Point) functionality
may be required.
To implement STP functionality, up to two additional “alias” point codes may be added
to the “primary” point code of the SS7 Node (as defined via the
Originating PC
parameter, see table "SS7 Node Properties" for details) . SS7 messages that arrive at
the specific Media Gateway board, and have an “alias” point code set as their
destination, will be relayed to the SoftSwitch via the M3UA protocol, similar to the
messages destined to the SS7 Node’s “primary” point code. M3UA Routing Contexts
may be used to define different routing rules for “alias” and “primary” point codes.
