Prerequisite
You must perform the following before the configuration:
Procedure
Step 1 HSYS and ALUI configuration
NOTE
By default, the data of the HSYSs in slots 6 and 8, and ALUI in slot 16 are configured. If the default data
can meet the actual needs, use it. If not, use RMV BRD to remove the default data and configure the data
on your own. When the default data is not configured, perform the following steps:
Add the upper SHPU-64K and lower SHPU-64K on the SBPUs in slots 0-3.
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=0, LOC=UDB, BT=SHPU64K;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=0, LOC=DDB, BT=SHPU64K;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=1, LOC=UDB, BT=SHPU64K;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=1, LOC=DDB, BT=SHPU64K;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=2, LOC=UDB, BT=SHPU64K;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=2, LOC=DDB, BT=SHPU64K;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=3, LOC=UDB, BT=SHPU64K;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=3, LOC=DDB, BT=SHPU64K;
NOTE
When adding the SBPI, SEPU, and CKII, use commands ADD LIP, ADD TRUNKSTAT and ADD
CKISTAT to define the IP address of the SBPI, working status of the SEPU and the CKII. Otherwise,
these boards cannot be added.
To configure the working status of the SEPU, set Link type to EI link, TDM chip clock source
selection to Crystal oscillation of the board, and Configuration of ports 0-15 to
DOUBLEFRAME format by default. Thus index 0 is obtained.
ADD TRUNKSTAT: BT=EU, LT=E1, CH110=LB, EP0=DF, EP1=DF, EP2=DF, EP3=DF,
EP4=DF, EP5=DF, EP6=DF, EP7=DF, EP8=DF, EP9=DF, EP10=DF, EP11=DF,
EP12=DF, EP13=DF, EP14=DF, EP15=DF;
NOTE
The index returned during the configuration can be used in the subsequent configuration. Therefore, you
must record the configuration information and its corresponding index.
To add SEPUs in slots 0-3, set the SEPU in slots 0 and 1 as the clock source board of the CKII
through the hardware DIP switch, and the board property indicator to 0.
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=0, LOC=BPB, BT=SEPU, PI=0;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=1, LOC=BPB, BT=SEPU, PI=0;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=2, LOC=BPB, BT=SEPU, PI=0;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=3, LOC=BPB, BT=SEPU, PI=0;
To add the CKIIs in slots 13 and 14, slots 15 and 16, set Board property indicator to 0.
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=13, LOC=BPB, BT=CKII, PI=0;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=15, LOC=BPB, BT=CKII, PI=0;
Add the SBPIs in slots 5 and 10. The SBPIs work in the load sharing mode. Set Board property
indicator to the index returned with the command ADD LIP.
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=5, LOC=FPB, BT=SBPI, PI=0;
ADD BRD: SHN=0, FN=0, FT=MAIN, SN=10, LOC=FPB, BT=SBPI, PI=1;
The local SP belongs to a specified logical network whose index is 0. To modify or add a logical network,
use ADD LN or MOD LN.

1.3.2 Notes
Many problems may occur during the configuration of the hardware data and local office data.
Take precautions against the following common problems.
Perform the following steps:
l Set status for the SBPI, SEPU/EPII, and CKII before you add them.
l Record the returned indexes and fill them in relevant fields.
The system uses complete SIGTRAN and SS7 protocols to implement the interworking between
broadband signaling and narrowband signaling. The SG7000 works in signaling transfer mode
with an independent signaling point code (SPC), and uses the M3UA or M2PA protocol to
interconnect with the softswitch and the ISUP protocol to interconnect with the STP. The SGs
are configured in pairs to provide reliability.
To configure the SG7000 data, follow the procedure as shown in Figure 2-1. In this way, the
key fields are defined before they are referenced by other data tables and no junk data is
generated.
2.1 Overview
This section describes the networking structure of the SG7000 working in transfer mode and the
planning of the local data and the interworking data.
2.2 Configuration Examples
This section describes the procedures for configuring the SG7000 working in transfer mode
based on the data planning.
2.3 Commissioning Guide
This section describes the configuration check after the SG7000 data is configured, and the
solutions for command problems.
2.1 Overview
This section describes the networking structure of the SG7000 working in transfer mode and the
planning of the local data and the interworking data.
2.1.1 Networking Mode
This section introduces the networking structure in which the SG7000 interconnects with the
STP and the softswitch in transfer mode.
2.1.2 Configuring Local Office Data
This section describes the data planning of the SG7000 working in transfer mode, including the
working mode, SPC, and IP address.
2.1.3 Configuring Interconnection Data
This section describes the planning of the interworking data on the SG7000 working in transfer
mode, including the route context, connection mode, and IP address.
As shown in Figure 2-2, SG_A is interconnected with SX_A through M3UA links at the
broadband side, and with the STP through MTP links at the narrowband side. The SG uses an
independent SPC. SG_A and SG_B are configured in a pair in active/standby mode, with C links
in between, names, M2PA links.
On SX_A, two SBPIs have different IP address. They work in the load sharing mode. Two
M3UA associations should be set up on two SBPUs/SBPEs to share the load.
On STP_A, one semi-permanent link is configured on each of the two SEPUs, and one MTP
link on each of the two SLPUs mapping the SEPUs. Two links of a same kind adopt the load
sharing mode.
S Parameter Value
N.
The interconnection data, as listed in Table 2-2, is configured after the coordination with the
peer office.
1 IP address Run ADD LIPC, ADD RIP, ADD RIPC, and ADD
IPDACL to configure the local IP address combination,
remote IP address, IP address combination and add all
RIPs to the Access control table. (The local IP address
has been configured in hardware data configuration.)
2 M3UA destination entity Run ADD N7DSP and ADD M3AS to configure the
remote SPC and application server.
3 M3UA association set Run ADD M3ASSOS and ADD M3RT to configure
and M3UA route M3UA association set and M3UA route.

route MTP link set and MTP route.
Context
NOTE
The index returned during the configuration can be used in the subsequent configuration. Therefore, you
must record the configuration information and its corresponding index.
Perform the following steps to configure SG_A. You can perform similar configuration steps
on SG_B.
Procedure
Step 1 IP Address
1. Add a record in the Local IP address combination table. Use the index obtained after the
execution of ADD LIP.
The M2UA, M3UA, IUA and M2PA protocols are transmitted based on SCTP. For easy management, you
must arrange the local SCTP port numbers for each link before data configuration. Do not try to use the
same port number repeatedly.
ADD M3ASSO: SN=0, FN=0, BN=0, PLNO=0, LIPCX=0, LP=2905, RIPCX=0, RP=2905,

2.3.2 Notes
This section describes some special points that you need to care about when configuring the
SG7000 data.
l When there is only one route between the SG7000 and the DSP, set Route Selection
Field to 0, which is the default value.
l Try to use the upper four bits of the route selection field, and thus all the MTP links in the
same link set sent to different non-adjacent signaling points can be selected to share the
signaling traffic load.
l Do not set the lower four bits of Route Selection Field the same value as the value of Link
Selection Field in each link set to avoid the system always selecting the same route. It is
recommended to stagger the places of "1" in the two fields. For example, if Route Selection
Field is set to 0110 (upper four bits are 0000), the Link Selection Field can be set to 1001.
3 Configuring SG in Dual-Homing
Environment
To ensure service reliability, the softswitch uses the dual-homing solution. The dual-homing
solution is a disaster tolerance mechanism, in which the two softswitches work in the mutual-
aid mode. When softswitch A is faulty, softswitch B replaces softswitch A to process services.
The SG can use a similar solution. Thus, when the softswitch switches over or switches back,
the SG can send services to the correct softswitch.
To configure the SG7000 data, follow the procedure as shown in Figure 3-1. In this way, the
key fields are defined before they are referenced by other data tables and no junk data is
generated.
Networking
As shown in Figure 3-2, SX_A and SX_B are two softswitches working in the mutual-aid mode,
and SG_A and SG_B are mutual-backup SGs working in the load-sharing mode. Both SG_A
and SG_B are homed to SX_A and SX_B. This is called dual-homing.
The softswitch interworks with PSTN equipment through the SG. The links to both SX_A and
SX_B are configured on the SG. Thus, when SX_A takes over SX_B, the SG can distribute
signaling messages that have been sent to SX_B to SX_A. When SX_B is restored, the SG can
distribute signaling messages to SX_B again.
For the connection between the SG and the softswitch, the load-sharing mode based on link
priorities is recommended. It means that the links between the SG and two softswitches work
in the load-sharing mode and the service is switched over between the active and the standby
softswitches based on link priorities. The following configuration examples are based on the
load-sharing mode.
Configuration on Softswitch
On SX_A, configure the master source signaling point A1111A and the slave one A1111B, and
set them in the mutual-aid mode. Set the links from the two signaling points to both SG_A and
SG_B in four respective link sets. Generally, the links between the slave signaling point A1111B
and the SG are disabled. They are enabled only when SX_A takes over SX_B in the case that
SX_B is faulty. Thus, the service on SX_B is restored.
Similarly, configure the master source signaling point A1111B and the slave one A1111A on
SX_B. Set the links from the two signaling points to both SG_A and SG_B in four respective
link sets.
Configuration on SG
On SG_A, configure link set 1 (LS1) to connect to signaling point A1111A. The link LS1-1,
which has higher priority, is connected to the master signaling point A1111A of SX_A. The link
LS1-2, which has lower priority, is connected to the slave signaling point A1111A of SX_B.
Generally, SG_A uses LS1-1 to send messages to SX_A and LS1-2 is disabled. When SX_A is
faulty, LS1-1 is faulty. SX_B takes over SX_A. As a result, LS1-2 is enabled and SG_A sends
the messages that have been sent to the A1111A of SX_A to the A1111A of SX_B.
Similarly, configure LS2 on SG_A to connect with signaling point A1111B. The configuration
of LS2 and its links are similar with that of LS1 and its links.
On SG_B, configure LS3 to connect with signaling point A1111A and LS4 to connect to
signaling point A1111B. The configuration is the same as that conducted on SG_A. Half of the
links in a link set have higher priority and are connected to the master signaling point A1111A,
and half of them have lower priority and are connected to the slave signaling point A1111B.
Configure link set 5 (LS5) between SG_A and SG_B. The link type is of the C link, namely,
M2PA links.
S Parameter Value

1 IP address Run ADD LIPC, ADD RIP, ADD RIPC, and ADD
IPDACL to configure the remote IP address, IP address
combination and add them to the Access control

NOTE
The index returned during the configuration is generally used in the subsequent configuration. Therefore,
you must record the configuration information and its corresponding index.
Perform the following steps to configure SG_A. You can perform similar configuration steps
on SG_B.
Procedure

execution of ADD LIP. The index 0 is obtained.
ADD LIPC: DESC="SG7000C", FEX1=0;
2. Add IP addresses for remote SX_A and SX_B.
ADD RIP: DESC="SX_A", RIP="10.0.1.10"; (The index 0 is obtained after

3.3.2 Notes
This section describes some special points that you need to care about when configuring the
SG7000 working in dual-homing mode.
Note the following when configuring M3UA associations:
l The remote IP information should be added to the Access control table for accessing the
table.
l In configuring the M3UA application server on the SG, the value of Routing context should
be consistent with that configured on the application server.
l Correctly configure the client or server mode and ASP or SGP mode at both sides.
Generally, the side working in the SGP mode acts as the server.
l Negotiate before configuring the interconnection data for the ports at both sides.
l Acting as the signaling gateway, the SG7000 cannot activate or deactivate a link. Instead,
the SoftX3000 conducts this operation.
Note the following when configuring MTP links:
l The route selection field should be set based on the number of routes, thus load sharing is
realized.
l In adding the semi-permanent connection, the E1 port number must be consistent with the
number of the physical cable. The occupied timeslots at both ends of a link must be
consistent. The signaling link codes should be consistent at both sides.
When used as an independent signaling transfer point (STP) in the PSTN, the SG7000 processes
and transfers SS7 messages only.
To configure the SG7000 data, follow the procedure as shown in Figure 4-1. In this way, the
key fields are defined before they are referenced by other data tables and no junk data is
generated.
4.1 Overview
When used as an independent signaling transfer point (STP) in the PSTN, the SG7000processes
and transfers SS7 messages only. It provides all functions of a traditional STP.
4.2 Configuration Examples
This section describes the procedures for configuring the SG7000 acting as the narrowband STP
based on the data planning.
4.3 Commissioning Guide
This section describes the configuration check after the narrowband STP data is configured, and
the solutions for command problems.

This section describes the data planning of the SG7000 acting as the narrowband STP.
4.1.3 Configuring Interconnection Data
This section describes the configuration of the interworking data on the SG7000 acting as the
narrowband STP. The interworking data must be configured under the negotiations with the peer
side.
As shown in Figure 4-2, a pair of SGs is configured in the mutual-backup mode. SG7000_A is
used as the active STP and SG_B the standby one. Similarly, a pair of STPs is configured in the
active and standby mode. The link between the two SGs or two STPs is of C link. SG_A and
SG_B transfer the signaling messages of local exchange A (LE_A) and LE_B.

ADD N7DSP: DESC="SG_B", NPC="A1111D", STP=TRUE, APF=TRUE, SCCPUSED=NONE;
(The index 4 is obtained after the command is executed.)
Set lower priority for routes directing to the DSP over C links.

4.3.2 Notes
This section describes some special points that you need to care about when configuring the
narrowband STP.
Note the following during configuration:
l The route selection field should be set based on the number of routes, thus load sharing is
realized.
l In adding the semi-permanent connection, the E1 port number must be consistent with the
number of the physical cable. The occupied timeslots at both ends of a link must be
consistent. The signaling link codes should be consistent at both sides.
l The DPC configured in a local office should be the same as the OPC configured in its peer
office.
l The signaling link codes at both sides of the link should be consistent; otherwise, the link
cannot be set up.
The SG7000 uses complete SIGTRAN and SS7 protocols to implement the interworking
between the broadband signaling and narrowband signaling. Working in the agent mode, the
SG7000 uses the M3UA protocol to interconnect with the softswitch and the MTP link to
interconnect with the STP. The SG7000 shares a signaling point code (SPC) with the softswitch.
To configure the SG7000 data, follow the procedure as shown in Figure 5-1. In this way, the
key fields are defined before they are referenced by other data tables and no junk data is
generated.
5.1 Overview
This section describes the data configuration on the SG7000 working in agent mode. It also
introduces the networking structure and the planning of the SG7000 data and the interworking
data.
5.2 Configuration Examples
This section describes the general procedures for configuring the SG7000 working in agent mode
based on the data planning.
5.1 Overview
This section describes the data configuration on the SG7000 working in agent mode. It also
introduces the networking structure and the planning of the SG7000 data and the interworking
data.
5.1.1 Networking Mode
This section introduces the networking structure in which the SG7000 interconnects with the
STP and the switch in agent mode.
5.1.2 Configuring Local Office Data
This section describes the data planning of the SG7000 working in agent mode.
5.1.3 Configuring Interconnection Data
This section describes the configuration of the interworking data on the SG7000 working in
agent mode. The interworking data must be configured under the negotiations with the peer side.
As shown in Figure 5-2, the SG_A is interconnected with the SX_A and SX_B through the
M3UA protocol at the broadband side, and with both the STPs through the No.7 protocol at the
narrowband side. The SG7000 uses the same signaling point code (SPC) with the softswitch.
On SX_A, two SBPIs have the different IP address. They work in the load sharing mode. Four
M3UA associations should be set up on four SBPUs/SBPEs, with each association for each
board, to share the load. The link priority is set to 0.
On SX_B, four M3UA associations should be set up on four SBPUs/SBPEs, and they are
connected with SX_B. The link priority is set to 1.
On STP_A, one semi-permanent link is configured on each of the four SEPUs, and one MTP
link on each of the four SLPUs. Four links of a same kind take the load sharing mode.
On STP_B, the configuration is the same as that on STP_A.
1 IP address Run ADD LIPC, ADD RIP, ADD RIPC, and ADD
IPDACL to configure the local IP address combination,
remote IP address, IP address combination and add them
to the Access control table. (The local IP address has
been configured in hardware data configuration.)
3 M3UA destination entity Configure the local SPC and application server with the
following commands:
l SET OFI
l ADD OPC
l ADD OPC
l ADD M3AS
4 M3UA association set Configure M3UA association set and M3UA route with
and M3UA route the following commands:
l ADD M3ASSOS
l ADD M3RT
6 MTP DSP Run ADD N7DSP to configure the MTP DSP for
STP_A and STP_B.
7 MTP link set and MTP Configure the MTP link set and MTP route with the
route following commands:
l ADD N7LKS
l ADD N7RT
Context
NOTE
he index returned during the configuration is likely to be used in the subsequent configuration, so you need
to record the configuration information and its corresponding index.
Procedure
Step 1 IP Address
When adding a local IP address, configure the SG7000 by referring to softswitch configuration.
1. Add a record in the Local IP address combination table. Use the index obtained after the
execution of ADD LIP.
ADD LIPC: DESC="SGC", FEX1=0; (The index 0 is obtained.)
2. Add a remote IP address. The index 0 is obtained.
ADD RIP: DESC="SX_A", RIP="10.0.1.20"; (The index 0 is obtained.)
ADD RIP: DESC="SX_B", RIP="10.0.1.30"; (The index 1 is obtained.)
3. Add the above IP address to the Remote IP address combination table.
ADD RIPC: DESC="SX_A", RIPX1=0; (The index 0 is obtained.)
ADD RIPC: DESC="SX_B", RIPX1=1; (The index 1 is obtained.)
4. Add the remote IP address to the IPDACL table.
ADD IPDACL: DESC="SX_A",IP="10.0.1.20";
ADD IPDACL: DESC="SX_B",IP="10.0.1.30";
Note that Destination point code index uses the index of the local SPC.
ADD M3AS: DESC="SX-N", NI=NM, SWM=AM, DPCX=1, RC=1234; (The index 0 is
obtained.)
ADD M3AS: DESC="SX-I", NI=IM, SWM=AM, DPCX=2, RC=4567; (The index 1 is
obtained.)
The M2UA, M3UA, IUA and M2PA protocols are transmitted based on SCTP. For easy management, you need
to arrange the local SCTP port numbers for each link before data configuration. Try not to use the same port
number repeatedly.
For STP_B:
ADD N7LNK: LN="LS02-01", SHN=0, FN=0, SN=0, LOC=UDB, LPN=1, LSX=1,
SLC=0, CT=NOR64K, HLN=4;
ADD N7LNK: LN="LS02-02", SHN=0, FN=0, SN=1, LOC=UDB, LPN=1, LSX=1,
SLC=1, CT=NOR64K, HLN=5;
ADD N7LNK: LN="LS02-03", SHN=0, FN=0, SN=2, LOC=UDB, LPN=1, LSX=1,
SLC=2, CT=NOR64K, HLN=6;
ADD N7LNK: LN="LS02-04", SHN=0, FN=0, SN=3, LOC=UDB, LPN=1, LSX=1,
SLC=3, CT=NOR64K, HLN=7;

5.3.2 Notes
This section describes some special points that you need to care about when configuring the
SG7000 working in agent mode.
l When there is only one route between the SG7000 and the DSP, set Route Selection
Field to 0, which is the default value.
l When there are two or more MTP routes, the decimal value of Route Selection Field should
be no smaller than the number of total link sets minus 1.
l Try to use the upper four bits of the route selection field, and thus all the MTP links in the
same link set sent to different non-adjacent signaling points can be selected to share the
signaling traffic load.
l Do not set the lower four bits of Route Selection Field the same value as the value of Link
Selection Field in each link set to avoid the system always selecting the same route. It is
recommended to stagger the places of "1" in the two fields. For example, if Route Selection
Field is set to 0110 (upper four bits are 0000), the Link Selection Field can be set to 1001.
l When there is only one link in a link set, set all bits of Field Selection Field to 0, which is
the default value.
l Set one bit to 1 if there are two MTP routes.
l Set two bits to 1 if there are three or four MTP links.
l Set three bits to 1 if there are five to eight MTP links.
l Set all four bits to 1 if there are more than eight MTP links.
l Do not set the lower four bits of Route Selection Field the same value as the value of Link
Selection Field in each link set to avoid the system always selecting the same route. It is
recommended to stagger the places of "1" in the two fields. For example, if Route Selection
Field is set to 0110 (upper four bits are 0000), the Link Selection Field can be set to 1001.
