• transport protocols like SCTP and user datagram protocol (UDP),
and
• SIP standards and protocols.
Hardware Dependencies
The Optical Interface Unit - Internet Protocol (OIU-IP) hardware
(feature 99-5E-8308) needs to be installed and active.
Other hardware required to support this feature includes two types of
protocol handlers (PHs); the PHE2 to support the SIP PH
functionality, and the PH33 to support the General Quad-link Package
Switch (QLPS) PH (GQPH), as well as the following:
• SM2000 switching modules,
• QLPS,
• Packet Switch Unit - Model 2 (PSU2), and
• Data Fanout - Model 2 (DF2).
Note: This QLPS and PH33 are not required on the DRM/VCDX.
Refer to Chapter 4, “Engineering Considerations” for a list of the
required hardware.
Software Dependencies
The following software components are needed:
• new SIP signaling software supported by SCTP or UDP for
transport,
• software to support the optical facility interface (OFI) circuit
pack hardware delivered with the Optical Interface Unit for NAR
Market feature (99-5E-7140),
• software to support the optical facility interface internet protocol
(OFI-IP) circuit pack hardware delivered with the Optical
Interface Unit - Internet Protocol feature (99-5E-8308), and
• operational support system (OSS) enhancements.
Incompatibilities
There are no incompatibilities with other features.
Feature Interactions
SIP for Packet trunking defines the signaling protocol to control the
bearer transport delivered with the Optical Interface Unit - Internet
Protocol (OIU-IP) feature (99-5E-8308).
SIP for Packet Trunking that uses UDP Transport Layer for SIP
(99-5E-8581) requires Support for SIP without Preconditions
