You need to configure a link set for pairs of Local Signaling Points and Adjacent Remote Signaling Points. You can only perform this task when logged into an SOAM.
- Select .
The SS7/Sigtran > Configuration > Link Sets page appears.
- Click Insert .
TheSS7/Sigtran > Configuration > Link Sets [Insert] page appears.
- Enter a unique name in the Link Set Name field.
The Link Set Name must start with a letter and can contain up to 32 alphanumeric characters. Underscores are also allowed.
- Define the desired relationship between the local and remote peer for this Link Set by selecting a value in the Mode pulldown menu.
AS->SG mode is the only mode supported. AS->SG mode defines the relationship between the local and remote ends of the link set.
- Select the Local Signaling Point served by this Link Set from the Local Signaling Point pulldown menu.
- Select the point code of the Local Signaling Point to be served by this Link Set.
If the local signaling point selected for the link set has a capability point code, the link set can receive signaling sent from the SS7 network to either the true point code or the capability point code. The default choice of “All” indicates that both, or all, point codes are acceptable. If no capability point code is configured for the local signaling point, only signaling sent from the network to the LSP true point code will be processed.
- Select the Adjacent Remote Signaling Point representing the Adjacent Signaling Gateway to be served by this Link Set from the Adjacent Remote Signaling Point pulldown menu.
- Select Yes if a routing context applies to this Link Set or No if it does not from the Assign Routing Context pulldown menu.
Routing Context must be specified if links from this Link Set will share an association with links from at least one other Link Set.
- If the Assign Routing Context is set to Yes enter a value in the Routing Context field.
This Routing Context must be configured to match the Routing Context value configured for this Link Set at the signaling gateway.
- Click OK to save the Link Set and exit this page.
- Repeat this process as necessary to create additional Link Sets.
The Link Sets are configured.
