Configuring Telco Spans
115
SS7 Bearer Spans can be configured to use either fully associated signaling
links coresident with the Bearer Spans, or a dedicated SS7 Signaling Link
Card. Use the applicable procedure below for your configuration.
To configure fully associated signaling links:
1.
On the
dialog box, click the
tab.
2.
The
Signaling Link Listener Port
is automatically assigned during
out-of-box configuration, by Span number as follows:
Span 1: Port 4314
Span 2: Port 4315
Span 3: Port 4316
Span 4: Port 4317
To change the port number, in the
Signaling Link Listener Port
box, type or select the port for these signaling links.
IMPORTANT
Each Span on a Card must have a unique Signaling
Link Listener Port. If duplicate port assignments are used, port conflicts
occur. The following Diagnostic Log message indicates a Signaling
Link port conflict: "Unable to bind APP SS7 server to port
n
."
3.
In the
Data Rate
box, click the value that defines the data rate of the
Signaling Links. Allowed values are 56K/s and 64K/s.
