Table A-1 summarizes the main (but not all possible) use cases that involve the Transport Manager.
Table A-1 Use Case Overview
UC# | SS7 + Transport Protocol | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | SS7-SCTP |
SCTP Multihomed Association Establishment – XSI1/XSI2 IP ports – Initiation sent via primary IP port Initiate and establish an outgoing SCTP multihomed association to the Adjacent Node via IP address marked as primary. |
2 | SS7-SCTP |
SCTP Multihomed Association Establishment – XSI1/XSI2 IP ports – Initiation received via primary IP port Receive and establish an incoming SCTP association from a remote destination with IP address marked as primary. |
3 | SS7-SCTP |
SCTP Multihomed Association Establishment – XSI1/XSI2 IP ports – Initiation sent via alternate IP port Initiate and establish an outgoing SCTP multihomed association to a remote destination with IP address marked as alternate. |
4 | SS7-SCTP |
SCTP Multihomed Association Establishment – XSI1/XSI2 IP ports – Initiation received via alternate IP port Receive and establish an incoming SCTP multihomed association from a remote destination with IP address marked as alternate. |
5 | SS7-SCTP |
SCTP Multihomed Association Rejection – DNS SCTP association is provisioned as multihomed and incoming INITs contain DNS names rather than IP addresses. |
6 | SS7-SCTP | SCTP Multihomed Association Primary Path Fail |
7 | SS7-SCTP | SCTP Multihomed Association Primary Path Restored |
8 | SS7-SCTP | SCTP Multihomed Association Alternate Path Fail |
9 | SS7-SCTP | SCTP Multihomed Association Alternate Path Restored |
10 | SS7-SCTP | SCTP Multihomed Association Both Paths Failure |
11 | SS7-SCTP | SCTP Multihomed Association Both Paths Restored |
