MTP restart
Before returning to the network, a node can send
TRW (traffic restart wait) to an adjacent node,
indicating not to send traffic
When restarting, if the node is satisfied that enough
links are available, it is sends a TRA (traffic restart
allowed)
Optional signaling link test message (SLTM) and
signaling test acknowledge (SLTA)
Exchanged when a link is in service; ensures
agreement on signaling link code
