1 Overview of 557 management

This chapter provides you with the following basics you need for
managing SS7 configuration:
the principles of SS7 management and the objects you can manage,
information about functional dependencies that impact the
interaction of SS7 components,
a description of the Standard and Advanced modes in the SS7
management GUI,
tasks that you can manage using the SS7 management GUI.
1•1 About 557 management
This section describes the principles of SS7 management and the
objects you can manage.
1•1•1 About 5ignaling Point Codes

Signaling point codes identify the end points of a Signaling Link (SL)
connection. The SS7 system uses 3 types of point codes:
Local Point Code (LPC) — identifies the unique entry point to the local
SS7 subsystem. There can be only one local point code per logical
network subsystem. 0nce created, a Local Point Code cannot be
modified.
Destination Point Code (DPC) — identifies the remote signaling
termination point of a signaling link route. This can be the same as
the Adjacent Point Code.
Adiacent Point Code — identifies an adjacent remote termination
point of a signaling link route. This can be the same as the DPC.
1•1•2 About Link 5ets

A Link Set contains up to 16 signaling links. A signaling link is a
permanent connection between 2 end points. A signaling link can
only exist in the context of a Link Set so you need to create a Link
Set to have a functional signaling link.
Load sharing Load sharing between links in a Link Set is a method according to
which the total signaling load on a Link Set is shared between 2 or
more working signaling links. The choice of the load sharing rule
depends on the number of signaling links in the Link Set.
5ignaling Link 5ets A signaling Link Set is a group of 1 to 16 signaling links. All
links in a Link Set share the following common characteristics:
same error correction
method, same adjacent
point code.
When you add a new signaling link to a Link Set you increase the
transmission capacity of the Link Set.
In normal operation, links share the signaling load. If necessary, any
single link can carry the full load. Each signaling link that connects to
an adjacent SP is clearly identified by an SLC. The link should have
the same SLC at each of the 2 end points of the signaling network.
1•1•3 About Route 5ets
Routes sets contain from 1 to 4 Link Sets. Traffic distribution across
Link Sets within a Route Set is determined by a load sharing rule.
Note: 0nce a Route Set is created it can be deleted but not modified.
Load sharing Load sharing between link sets in a Route Set is a method
according to which the total signaling load on a Route Set is shared
between 2 or more working signaling link sets. The choice of the load
sharing rule depends on the number of signaling link sets in the
Route Set.
1•1•4 About Destination Point Codes

The DPC identifies the remote end of a signaling link connection. It
usually identifies the remote system on a network node by its
SubSystem Number (SSN). When the SSN is unknown a Global Title
translation reassigns the DPC to a different DPC on the remote
system which may be an Adjacent Point Code.
1•1•5 About 5CCP Point Codes

The SCCP point code identifies an MTP access point to enable
transfer of user data through MTP layers to the SCCP layer. There are
2 types of SCCP point codes:
local— identifies network characteristics and maps the LPC to a
MTP_3 access point for a each defined logical network on the NE.
remote — identifies network characteristics and maps each DPC in
the system to the remote MTP_3 access point.
The SCCP point code provides support for both connection and
connectionless mode SCCP services.
1•1•6 About 5CCP Access Points

The SCCP access point provides local or remote access to SCCP
services for SS7 user applications. It is used to describe the
availability status of the local or remote subsystem. Each subsystem
connection requires a different SCCP access point. Multiple Global
Titles (GTs) can translate to the same SCCP access point.
1•1•7 About 5CCP translation and GTs

A Global Title (GT) is a logical or virtual address used to route SS7
SCCP messages. Its purpose is to isolate SCCP applications and data
from changes in the network to ensure correct routing regardless of
modifications to network elements.
If the DPC is not known, the GT must be translated. A DPC is the
result of a GT translation.
The Translation Selector selects a GT translation based on a
combination of values:
nature of address,
translation type,
numbering plan.
If there is no GT translation a routing failure will result.
1•1•8 About logical networks

The Logical Network (LN) is a notion provided by the platform. It allows
you to define several independent networks on the same platform.
Each Logical Network
has: an originating
point code, a set of
signaling links,
signaling link sets,
signaling routes,
signaling route sets.
All the Point Codes in the same Logical Network have the same
length (14 or 24 bits) and the same Network Indicator
(National/International).
Narrowband and broadband networks are defined in different Logical
Networks.
1•2 Functional dependencies
1•2•1 About dependencies
Due to functional dependencies, SS7 components should be created
and configured in a particular sequence. Because some components
"depend" upon the existence of other components they cannot be
created until the prerequisite components have been created and
configured.
Note: Although Advanced SS7 functions are beyond the scope of this
document, much of the information in this chapter refers to
Advanced functions because it is helpful to understand how all
components operate together in the SS7 system.
1•2•2 Channel connection dependencies

The SS7 system supports two types of Data Link device that serve as
channel connection interfaces:
narrowband — for Pulse Code Modulation (PCM)
devices, broadband — for Asynchronous Transfer
Mode (ATM) devices.
Narrowband To create a narrowband connection you need to create and define a
connection PCM device profile. The PCM device profile contains a number of
dependenci configurable components that, together, define all required device
connection parameters.
es
Due to certain functional dependencies you need to create and
configure connection components in a particular order. See the SS7
management key procedures in Chapter 2.
Figure 1 illustrates PCM dependencies. In the figure, arrows point

from objects that depend upon objects the arrow points toward.

need to configure an ATM device profile.
Because the ATM device connection depends upon certain functional components, the ATM
connection profile should be defined in a particular configuration sequence. See the SS7
Figure 2 illustrates broadband dependencies. In the figure, arrows point from objects that
depend upon objects the arrow points toward.
Figure 2: ATM profile dependencies (broadband)

1•2•3 Route 5et and Link 5et dependencies
This section provides information to help you understand the
functional dependencies for Route Set and Link Set components.
A Route Set may contain from 1 to 4 Link Sets. Although each Link
Set may contain up to 16 signaling links, there is a global limit of 16
signaling links inside a single Route Set.
Due to functional dependencies you need to create and configure
components in a particular sequence. See the SS7 management key
procedures in Chapter 2.
Figure 3 illustrates the functional dependencies between Route Set

and Link Set components. In the figure, arrows point from objects
that depend upon objects the arrow points toward. Grayed boxes
represent components that are controlled by Advanced functions.
Figure 3: Route Set and Link Set dependencies

1•2•4 5CCP connection dependencies
This section describes the functional dependencies between SCCP
components. There is only one SCCP connection per NE.
Note: A Local Point Code (LPC) or a Destination Point Code (DPC) must
already exist before you can configure an SCCP connection.
Due to functional dependencies you need to create and configure

SCCP components in a particular sequence. See the SS7
Figure 4 illustrates functional dependencies between SCCP

components. In the figure, arrows point from objects that depend
upon objects the arrow points toward. Grayed boxes represent
components that are controlled by Advanced functions.
Figure 4: SCCP dependencies

SCCP Load sharing A load sharing algorithm distributes the SCCP traffic with GT
translation between remote SCCP relays or remote Destination Point
Codes.
This load sharing algorithm distributes the SCCP traffic equally
between the signalling links of the signalling link set.
In-sequence delivery for SCCP class 1 and 2 must be guaranteed
at transaction level. All messages belonging to one transaction
have to take the same path.
This load share can handle up to 16 remote SCCP nodes in balanced
or dominant mode. The information is given in 5 CCP Enti ty 5 et
(Advanced mode).
Locking/unlocking SCCP
local subsystem
A local SCCP subsystem can be locked or unlocked:
by operator commands (by modifying the 5tatus parameter in SCCP Access Point
management),
by the application (primitive upper layer N-STATE request). The operator can override this if
required.
The SS7 Management GUI provides two modes
