This section provides a basic overview of the steps involved to provision the IPSG application for M3UA. For detailed procedures, see Database Administration - IP7 User's Guide of your current EAGLE documentation suite.
- Declare the E5-ENET, E5-ENET-B card or the SLIC application to be ipsg (
ent-card).
- Define the IP settings for the Ethernet port (
chg-ip-lnk): - Declare what card and port you are defining with this command
- Associate an IP address to that card and port
- Set the Ethernet settings for the card and port
- Associate an IP address to a host name that will be used in configuring the Association (
ent-iphost).This step sets up a static IP address Host Table, which associates Domain Names to IP addresses so that the computer can look up Domain Names and place the corresponding IP address in the packet header. The alternative is to use a DNS server.
- Enter an Application Server Process and bind an SCTP association with it (
ent-assoc).This command configures the SCTP association in the Internet Protocol Application Socket (IPAPSOCK) table. This command permits the association to transport protocol data units and adaptive layer peer messages. Each association is connected to a process at the far end. The IPAPSOCK table is used to associate the Local Host/Local Port to a Remote Host/Remote Port.
- Define the Site ID (
chg-sid).
- Enter adjacent point code (
ent-dstn).
- Define capacity and use alarm (ent-ls).
ent-ls:lsn=ls1201:apc=10-10-10:lst=a:adapter=m3ua:ipsg=yes:rcontext=1:slktps=100
- Tell the EAGLE that this is a SIGTRAN M3UA link (
ent-slk).
- Enter route (
ent-rte).
- Allow and open the SCTP association (
chg-assoc).
- Activate signaling link (
act-slk).
