4.3

Running Host Binaries With Dialogic

DSI SS7MD Board

The Dialogic

DSI MTP2 Layer protocol module runs on the board. The other SS7 protocol modules (MTP3,

ISUP, TUP, SCCP, TCAP, MAP, INAP, and IS41) must be run on the host machine.

Host protocol software is available for Linux and Solaris SPARC operating systems. For more information or
to purchase, contact an authorized distributor or your account manager.
