Description
SS7 Link Set
Name
String
Up to 20 chars.
Offline_create The extual, User-defined name for the SS7
Linkset, enabling it to be identified
intuitively and easily.
Destination PC String
Up to 20 chars.
Online
Defines the point code of the adjacent
signaling node that this linkset connects
with. Can be specified in numeric (e.g., 15)
or X-Y-Z (e.g., 0-1-1) formats.
The ANSI point code uses 24-bits. It
consists of three octets – network, cluster
and member. An octet is a 8-bit byte which
can contain any value between 0 and 255.
The ITU point code uses 14 bits. It is a
pure binary number that may be stated in
terms of zone (3 bits), area/network (8 bits)
and signaling point identification (3 bits)
numbers.
The China point code uses 24-bits and is
incompatible with both ANSI and ITU
networks.
Linkset Timers ID Integer
1-3
Offline_create Defines the ID of the SS7 Linkset Timers
profile that contains timers and basic
MTP3 layer configuration for a specific
SS7 Node.
Multiple SS7 Linksets can use the same
SS7 Linkset Timers profile.
Link Mask Integer
0-255
Online Defines the SS7 Linkset mask, to select a
signaling link on the basis of the MTP3
SLS/SLC field.
Alternate Link
Mask
Integer
0-255
Online Defines the alternate SS7 Linkset mask to
select an alternate signaling link set on the
basis of the field MTP3 SLS/SLC.
Note: This calculates an inner link index
which may not be the same as the actual
chosen link. It is recommended to set the
value of this field to: 255 - link mask.
