:lsn – The name of the linkset

:nlsn – The new name of the linkset

  • The linkset name can contain up to 10 characters, with the first character being a letter. However, the SEAS interface supports only eight characters. If this linkset is displayed on the SEAS interface and the linkset name contains more than eight characters, only the first eight characters in the linkset name are shown. If this linkset name contains more than eight characters, and is specified with the linkset commands on the SEAS interface, only the first eight characters can be specified.
:apc/apca/apci/apcn/apcn24 – Adjacent point code – the point code identifying the node that is next to the EAGLE. The adjacent point code can be one of the following types of point codes:
  • :apc/apcaANSI point code
  • :apciITU-I point code, ITU-I spare point code
  • :apcn – 14-bit ITU-N point code, 14-bit ITU-N spare point code
  • :apcn24 – 24-bit ITU-N point code
:spc/spca/spci/spcn/spcn24 – Secondary point code used for multiple linksets that have the same APC, or the value none. If the value none is specified, the existing secondary point code that is assigned to the linkset is removed. Secondary point codes can be used only if the Multiple Linksets to Single Adjacent PC feature is enabled and turned on (shown in the rtrv-ctrl-feat output. The secondary point code can be one of the following types of point codes:
  • :spc/spcaANSI point code
  • :spciITU-I point code, ITU-I spare point code
  • :spcn – 14-bit ITU-N point code, 14-bit ITU-N spare point code
  • :spcn24 – 24-bit ITU-N point code

Note:

Refer to Point Code Formats for a definition of the point code types that are used on the EAGLE and for a definition of the different formats that can be used for ITU national point codes. Private point codes can be assigned only to IPGWx linksets. The procedures for configuring IPGWx linksets are in Database Administration - IP7 User's Guide.
:apcntype – Specifies whether or not the linkset containing either a 14-bit ITU-N adjacent point code or a 24-bit ITU-N adjacent point code is being used in China (apcntype=itunchina) or in countries other than China (apcntype=itun). Signaling links in linksets with the apcntype=itunchina parameter are handled according to the specifications in YD/N 068-1997, Technical Specification of National No.7 Signaling System - Message Transfer Part (MTP). Signaling links in linksets with the apcntype=itun parameter are handled according to the specifications in ITU-T Q.2210 (07/96), Switching and Signaling, Broadband ISDN- Signaling Network Protocols. The default value for the apcntype parameter is itun.
  • Linksets shown in section of the rtrv-ls output with the LSN (CHINA) column (and with either the APCN or APCN24 column) have the acpntype=itunchina parameter assigned to them.
  • Linksets shown in section of the rtrv-ls output with the LSN column (and with either the APCN or APCN24 column) have the acpntype=itun parameter assigned to them.

:lst – The linkset type of the specified linkset

:clli – The Common Language Location Identifier assigned to this point code. The value of the clli parameter is only displayed in the rtrv-ls command output when a specific linkset is being displayed with the rtrv-ls:lsn=<linkset name> command.

:sltset – The signaling link test message record to be associated with the linkset.

:l3tset – The level 3 timer set table. This parameter identifies which level three timer set is to be assigned to this linkset. Currently, only one is supported.

:scrn – The name of the screenset to be assigned to this linkset if gateway screening is to be used.

:gwsa – Gateway screening action determines whether gateway screening (GWS) is on or off for the specified link set.

:gwsm – Gateway screening messaging is used to turn on or off the display of messages generated for each screened message. When an MSU is rejected by gateway screening, a message is output to alert personnel of the event.

:gwsd – Gateway screening MSU discard is used to turn on or off the discarding of MSUs that bypass the gateway screening function due to load shedding. Also use this parameter with the redirect function; MSUs that cannot be screened are discarded if you specify gwsd=on.

:bei – The broadcast exception indicator. This parameter indicates whether TFP (transfer prohibited) messages are allowed to be broadcast on the linkset. The yes parameter means TFPs are not broadcast. The no parameter means TFPs are broadcast.

:tfatcabmlq – the TFA/TCA broadcast minimum link quantity shows the minimum number of signaling links in the given link set (or in the combined link set in which it resides) that must be available for traffic. When the number of signaling links in the specified linkset is equal to or greater than the value of the tfatcabmlq parameter, the status of the routes that use the specified linkset is set to allowed and can carry traffic. Otherwise, these routes are restricted. The value of the tfatcabmlq parameter cannot exceed the total number of signaling links contained in the linkset. The system default value for the tfatcabmlq parameter is 0.
  • The value of the tfatcabmlq parameter is only displayed in the rtrv-ls command output when a specific linkset is being displayed with the rtrv-ls:lsn=<linkset name> command.
  • The tfatcabmlq parameter exists only in the chg-ls command and not the ent-ls command, because no links are assigned to the linkset when the linkset is first created with the ent-ls command. The default value for the tfatcabmlq parameter (tfatcabmlq=0) is entered for the linkset, and shown in the rtrv-ls output as 1, when a new linkset is added to the database.
  • When the tfatcabmlq parameter value is 0, the EAGLE 5 ISS broadcasts TFAs/TCAs only when 1/2 of the links in the linkset (or in the combined link set in which it resides) become available. The tfatcabmlq parameter value displayed in the rtrv-ls output is 1/2 of the number of signaling links contained in the linkset. If the number of signaling links in the linkset is an odd number, the tfatcabmlq parameter value is rounded up to the next whole number. As signaling links are added or removed from the linkset, the tfatcabmlq parameter value will be changed automatically.
  • When the lst=c parameter is specified, or when the current (unchanged) LST value is C, the tfatcabmlq parameter cannot be specified unless the LSRESTRICT SS7 option is on. The state of the LSRESTRICT SS7 option is shown in the rtrv-ss7opts output.
:nis – specifies whether the National Spare for Network Indicator feature is on or off for the specific linkset. This feature allows the linkset to use the national spare value (3) for the network indicator code field in the service information octet (SIO) of the MSU for ANSI linksets and ITU national linksets (linksets containing either 14-bit ITU-N point codes or 24-bit ITU-N point codes). This parameter cannot be specified for ITU international linksets. The default value for the nis parameter is off.
  • For MSUs on incoming linksets, only those MSUs having the network indicator code values shown in Table 3-11 are allowed into the EAGLE 5 ISS.
  • For MSUs on outgoing linksets, the network indicator code value in the MSU is changed to either the national network indicator code value (2) or the national spare network indicator code value (3). If the nis parameter is set to off, the network indicator code value is set to 2.
  • These actions are summarized in Table 3-11.
  • The actions described for this parameter apply only if the ITU National and International Spare Point Code Support feature is not enabled.
  • If the ITU National and International Spare Point Code Support feature is enabled, the nis parameter value is ignored for ITU-I and 14-bit ITU-N linksets. All the network indicator values are permitted on ITU-I and ITU-N linksets, and the network indicator value for transmission is based on the International/National and Spare/Non-Spare status of the DPC of the message.
  • Having the ITU National and International Spare Point Code Support feature enabled has no effect on ANSI and 24-bit ITU-N linksets. The nis parameter value determines which incoming network indicator spare bit values to permit, and what network indicator spare bit value should be transmitted.

Table 3-11 Actions of the National Spare for Network Indicator Feature

The network indicator code value in the MSU is set to the national spare network indicator code (3).

:itutfr – specifies whether or not ITU TFR (transfer restricted) procedures are being used on the linkset. This parameter applies only to linksets with ITU national adjacent point codes (linksets containing either 14-bit ITU-N point codes or 24-bit ITU-N point codes) and can be specified only for linksets with ITU national adjacent point codes. TFR procedures are used to redirect traffic away from a node that is having problems routing traffic to a destination. When a node determines that a destination is restricted, the node sends a TFR message informing the adjacent nodes about the destination’s status. When a destination is restricted, the node should not be used to route messages to the destination even though it still has limited capability to do so. The values for this parameter are either on (ITU TFR procedures are enabled) or off (ITU TFR procedures are disabled). For more information on the itutfr parameter and ITUTFR procedures, refer to ITU TFR Procedures.

:mtprse – shows if the node adjacent to the EAGLE is equipped with the MTP restart capability. The mtprse=yes parameter can only be specified if the MTP restart feature is turned on for ANSI linksets (MTPRS = on in the rtrv-feat command output), or if the ITU MTP restart is on for ITU linksets (ITUMTPRS=on in the rtrv-feat command output). If the MTP restart feature is not turned on, the value of the mtprse parameter defaults to no. The value of the mtprse parameter value is not dependent on the value of the mtprsi parameter (the MTP restart indicator) in the chg-stpopts command. The value of the mtprse parameter is only displayed in the rtrv-ls command output when a specific linkset is being displayed with the rtrv-ls:lsn=<linkset name> command. For more information on the mtprse parameter and MTP restart, refer to Configuring the MTP Restart Feature.

:slsci – indicates whether the 5-bit to 8-bit SLS conversion feature is used to select signaling links for outgoing messages on the specified link set. If the slsci=yes parameter is specified, the EAGLE replaces any 5-bit SLS values contained in received messages with a random 8-bit value before they are used by the EAGLE to select the outgoing signaling link in that linkset. The 5-bit to 8-bit SLS conversion is also controlled by the slscnv parameter of the chg-stpopts command. The slscnv parameter of the chg-stpopts command has three values: on, off, and perls. The slsci parameter can only be specified for linksets with ANSI SS7 adjacent point codes.

:asl8 – shows if the node adjacent to the EAGLE 5 ISS is sending MSUs with 8-bit SLSs. If the asl8=yes parameter is specified with the lst=a parameter (a linkset containing access signaling links), this indicates that the originator of the MSUs is generating 8-bit SLSs. For other linkset types, the asl8=yes parameter indicates that the adjacent node is converting 5-bit SLSs to 8-bit SLSs. The SLS in MSUs received by the EAGLE on a linkset that has the asl8=yes parameter assigned to it will not be converted. These MSUs are assumed to contain 8-bit SLSs. If the asl8=no parameter is specified for the linkset, the SLS will be converted to an 8-bit SLS. The asl8 parameter can only be specified for linksets with ANSI SS7 adjacent point codes. The value of the asl8 parameter is only displayed in the rtrv-ls command output when a specific linkset is being displayed with the rtrv-ls:lsn=<linkset name> command.

For more information on the slsci and asl8 parameters and 5-bit to 8-bit conversion, refer to Configuring the 5-Bit to 8-Bit SLS Conversion Feature.

:slsrsb – selects which bit (1 - 4) of the SLS field to use as the least significant bit for signaling link selection in the link set for all ITU messages on outgoing ITU linksets.

:islsrsb – selects which bit of the SLS field, 1 - 8 for an ANSI linkset or 1 - 4 for an ITU linkset, to use as the least significant bit for signaling link selection in the link set for all messages on ANSI and ITU linksets on incoming linksets. If you wish to use the values 6, 7, or 8 for the islsrsb parameter of a ANSI linkset, the rsls8 value for the linkset must be yes. Perform Configuring the RSLS8 Value for ANSI Linksets to change the rsls8 value for the linkset to yes.

:slsocbit – selects which bit (5 - 16) of the SLS field to use as the most significant bit for signaling link selection in the link set for all ITU messages.

For more information on the slsrsb, islsrsb, and slsocbit parameters and ITU SLS enhancement, refer to ITU SLS Enhancement.

:multgc – specifies whether multiple group codes are supported for the linkset. When this parameter value is yes, secondary adjacent point codes whose group codes are different from the adjacent point code of the linkset can be assigned to the linkset. If the parameter value is no, the group code of the secondary adjacent point code must be the same as the group code of the linkset’s adjacent point code. For more information on secondary adjacent point codes, go to the Configuring an ITU Linkset with a Secondary Adjacent Point Code (SAPC) procedure.
  • This parameter only applies to linksets whose adjacent point codes are either ITU international point codes or 14-bit ITU national point codes. All the signaling links in this linkset must be assigned to cards running the IPLIMI application. For more information on assigning signaling links to cards running the IPLIMI application, perform the Adding an IPLIMx Signaling Link procedure in Database Administration - IP7 User's Guide.
  • The ITU duplicate point code feature must be on before this parameter can be specified. Verify this with the rtrv-feat command. If the ITU duplicate point code feature is turned on, the ITUDUPPC field should be set to on. If the ITU duplicate point code feature is not turned on, enter the chg-feat:ituduppc=on command.

Note:

Once the ITU duplicate point code feature is turned on with the chg-feat command, it cannot be turned off.

The ITU duplicate point code feature must be purchased before you turn the feature on with the chg-feat command. If you are not sure if you have purchased the ITU duplicate point code feature, contact your Oracle Sales Representative or Account Representative.

:gttmode – The GTT mode assigned to the linkset when performing global title translation on the specified linkset. The values for this parameter are:
  • sysdflt – the value of the dfltgttmode parameter shown in the rtrv-sccpopts command output.
  • cd - CdPAGTT only
  • cg - CgPA GTT only
  • acdcd - Advanced CdPA GTT, CdPA GTT
  • acdcgcd - Advanced CdPA GTT, CgPA GTT, CdPA GTT
  • acdcdcg - Advanced CdPA GTT, CdPA GTT, CgPA GTT
  • cgacdcd - CgPA GTT, Advanced CdPA GTT, CdPA GTT
  • cgcd - CgPA GTT, CdPA GTT
  • cdcg - CdPA GTT, CgPA GTT
  • fcd - Flexible Linkset Optional Based Routing (FLOBR) CdPA only
  • fcg - FLOBR CgPA only
  • fcdfcg - FLOBR CdPA, FLOBR CgPA
  • fcgfcd - FLOBR CgPA, FLOBR CdPA
  • For more information on using the gttmode parameter, refer to the Origin-Based SCCP Routing Feature section or the Flexible Linkset Optional Based Routing section in Database Administration - GTT User's Guide.
  • To use the values cg, acdcd, acdcgcd, acdcdcg, cgacdcd, or cgcd for the gttmode parameter, the Origin-Based SCCP Routing feature must be enabled and turned on.
  • To use the values fcd, fcg, fcdfcg, or fcgfcd for the gttmode parameter, the Flexible Linkset Optional Based Routing feature must be enabled and turned on.

:randsls – The random SLS value assigned to the linkset. This parameter is used to apply random SLS generation for the specified linkset.

The randsls parameter has three values:
  • off – Random SLS generation is not applied to the specified linkset.
  • class0 – Random SLS generation is applied to only Class 0 SCCP messages on either incoming ANSI or outgoing ITU linksets.
  • all – Random SLS generation is applied to both Class 0 and Class 1 SCCP messages on outgoing ITU linksets, or to Class 0 SCCP messages and ISUP messages on ANSI linksets.

For more information about random SLS generation on a specific linkset, refer to Per-Linkset Random SLS.

:cggtmod - The calling party GT modification indicator. This parameter specifies whether or not calling party global title modification is required. The values for this parameter are yes (calling party global title modification is required) or no (calling party global title modification is not required). This parameter can be specified only if the AMGTT or AMGTT CgPA Upgrade feature is enabled. Enter the rtrv-ctrl-feat command to verify that either the AMGTT or AMGTT CgPA Upgrade feature is enabled. If the AMGTT or AMGTT CgPA Upgrade feature is not enabled, perform the "Activating the Advanced GT Modification Feature" procedure in Database Administration - GTT User's Guide procedure to enable the required feature. For more information about the Advanced GT Modification feature, refer to the "Advanced GT Modification Feature" section in Database Administration - GTT User's Guide.

The EAGLE can contain 1024 linksets, with a maximum of 255 of these linksets being gateway linksets. A gateway linkset is a linkset that contains routes to a different network.

The linkset to be changed must exist in the database.

If the adjacent point code (APC) is changed, the new APC must be in the destination point code table and must be defined as a true point code in the destination point code table and cannot be an alias point code. The domain and point code type of the new APC must be the same as the APC being changed. For example, if the current adjacent point code is an ITU-I point code, the new adjacent point code must be an ITU-I point code. The new APC of the linkset cannot match the self ID of the EAGLE. The new APC must be a full point code and cannot be a cluster point code or a network routing point code.

Linksets containing E1 ATM signaling links cannot contain 24-bit ITU-N APCs or SAPCs. E1 ATM signaling links are identified by the value LIME1ATM in the TYPE column of the rtrv-ls:lsn=<linkset name> output.

The signaling link configuration of the linkset can be verified by entering the rtrv-ls:lsn=<linkset name> command.

Use the rtrv-dstn command to verify that the new APC is in the destination point code table and to verify the domain of the new APC. If the new APC is not shown in the rtrv-dstn command output, go to the Adding a Destination Point Code procedure and add the APC to the destination point code table.

To change the APC of a linkset, all signaling links in the linkset must be in the OOS-MT-DSBLD state.

The gwsa, gwsm, and gwsd parameters can only be specified if the scrn parameter is defined. Enter the rtrv-ls command to verify that the scrn parameter is defined for the specified linkset. If the scrn parameter is defined, a gateway screening screen set name is shown in the SCRN field of the output. This gateway screening screen set name must also be defined as a gateway screening screen set entity. This can be verified with the rtrv-scrset command.

Caution:

When Gateway Screening is in the screen test mode, as defined by the linkset parameters gwsa=off and gwsm=on, the gateway screening action in the gateway screening stop action set specified by the actname parameter of the gateway screening screen set at the end of the gateway screening process will be performed.

The chg-ls command has a parameter, gwsd, that can allow the discarding of messages that should have gone through the gateway screening process, but could not. The gwsd parameter is only intended to be used with the database transport access (DTA) feature. If you are not using the DTA feature, the gwsd parameter should not be specified or should be set to no (gwsd=no).

If the gwsa=off parameter is specified, then the gwsd=off parameter must be specified.

To help manage congestion on signaling links, the EAGLE starts the level 3 T31 timer whenever a signaling link goes into congestion level 1 or congestion level 2. The congestion level that is associated with the level 3 T31 timer is set using the chg-stpopts command with the mtpt31ctl parameter and is displayed with the MTPT31CTL field in the rtrv-stpopts command output. When the level 3 timer T31 and the chg-stpopts command are first introduced to the EAGLE, the system default value for the mtpt31ctl parameter of the chg-stpopts command is 1, for congestion level 1, and the system default value for the level 3 T31 timer is 60 seconds. To change the value of the level 3 T31 timer, perform Changing Level 3 Timers. To change value of the mtpt31ctl parameter, enter the either chg-stpopts:mtpt31ctl=1 or the chg-stpopts:mtpt31ctl=2 command, depending on the current value of the mtpt31ctl parameter.

To help prevent the signaling link in the linkset from oscillating in out of service, the EAGLE starts the level 3 T32 timer. When the EAGLE begins restoring an out of service signaling link, the EAGLE starts the level 3 T32 timer.If the signaling link fails again before the level 3 T32 expires, the EAGLE does not attempt to continue to bring the signaling link into service until the level 3 T32 timer expires. Once the level 3 T32 timer expires, the EAGLE attempts to restore the signaling link into service. When the level 3 timer T32 is first introduced to the EAGLE, the system default value for the level 3 T32 timer is 60 seconds. To change the value of the level 3 T32 timer, perform Changing Level 3 Timers.

The word SEAS cannot be used as a value for the scrn parameter of the chg-ls command. The word SEAS is used in the rtrv-ls command output, in the SCRN field, to show gateway linksets created on the SEAS interface. A gateway linkset combines the functions of a gateway screening screen set and an SS7 linkset specifying the gwsa=on and scrn parameters. Like an EAGLE gateway screening screen set, a gateway linkset defines the screening references that are to be used to screen the messages on the linkset. It also defines the linkset whose messages are to be screened. A gateway linkset can only be configured from a SEAS terminal and not from an EAGLE terminal.

If the clli parameter is specified with the chg-ls command, the value of the clli parameter must match the CLLI value of the adjacent point code of the linkset. The CLLI value of the adjacent point code is shown in the CLLI field of the rtrv-dstn command.

The clli parameter can only be specified with the apc or apca parameters.

If the randsls parameter of the chg-stpopts command is set to either all or class0, a maximum of 16 links continues to be supported in a single linkset to a destination. However, it is now possible to have up to 32 links in a combined linkset to a destination, with a maximum of 16 links per linkset. The 32 links is a change from the current EAGLE maximum of only 16 links per combined linkset, which is due to ITU protocol restrictions. If more than 16 links are used in a combined linkset, the operator needs to be aware that a maximum of 16 links can be used by non-Random SLS traffic over the linkset. The non-Random SLS traffic continues to operate under the rules of the ITU protocol. For more information on the Random SLS Generation feature, refer to Configuring the System for Random SLS Generation.

To provision more than one linkset with the same APC, the Multiple Linksets to Single Adjacent PC feature must be enabled and turned on. The database can contain a maximum of six linksets that have the same APC. If the linkset is not a proxy linkset (linkset types A, B, C, D, or E), a secondary point code (shown in the rtrv-spc output) must be specified with the linkset. The network type and format of the secondary point code must be the same as the APC of the linkset. Secondary point codes can also be assigned to the APC of the linkset when the point code is provisioned in the database with the ent-dstn or chg-dstn commands. The secondary point codes that are assigned to the linksets that have the same APC must be unique for each linkset and cannot be the same as the secondary point code that is assigned to the APC of the linksets.

The secondary point code that is assigned to a linkset can be removed from the linkset by specifying the value none for the spc/spca/spci/spcn/spcn24 parameter. A secondary point code can be removed from only one of the linksets in a group of linksets that have the same APC.

If the linkset is a proxy linkset (linkset type PRX), the APC and linkset type of the linkset cannot be changed. A secondary point code and a secondary adjacent point code cannot be specified for a proxy linkset.

Other Optional Parameters

The chg-ls command contains other optional parameters that are not used this procedure. These parameters are discussed in more detail in Commands User's Guide or in these sections.

The gsmscrn parameter is used for the GSM MAP Screening feature. To configure an SS7 linkset for the GSM MAP Screening feature, perform the “Configuring a Linkset for the GSM MAP Screening Feature,” in Chapter 5, “GSM MAP Screening Configuration,” in Database Administration - Features User's Guide.

The network indicator (NI) value of messages on ITU-I or ITU-N linksets can be changed to other values by entering the icnimap and ognimap parameters of the chg-lsopts command. Perform Configuring the ITU Linkset NI Mapping Options to change these values for the ITU-I or ITU-N linksets.

Canceling the RTRV-LS Command

Because the rtrv-ls command used in this procedure can output information for a long period of time, the rtrv-ls command can be canceled and the output to the terminal stopped. There are three ways that the rtrv-ls command can be canceled.

  • Press the F9 function key on the keyboard at the terminal where the rtrv-ls command was entered.
  • Enter the canc-cmd without the trm parameter at the terminal where the rtrv-ls command was entered.
  • Enter the canc-cmd:trm=<xx>, where <xx> is the terminal where the rtrv-ls command was entered, from another terminal other that the terminal where the rtrv-ls command was entered. To enter the canc-cmd:trm=<xx> command, the terminal must allow Security Administration commands to be entered from it and the user must be allowed to enter Security Administration commands. The terminal’s permissions can be verified with the rtrv-secu-trm command. The user’s permissions can be verified with the rtrv-user or rtrv-secu-user commands.

For more information about the canc-cmd command, go to Commands User's Guide.

  1. Display the current linkset configuration using the rtrv-ls command.

    This is an example of the possible output.

    Continue the procedure by performing one of these actions.
  3. To specify the following optional parameters for the linkset, the feature that corresponds to the parameters must be shown as turned on in the rtrv-feat output, or enabled, and turned on if required, in the rtrv-ctrl-feat output, or other database entities that correspond to the parameters must be configured in the database.
    Perform the procedure, shown in the following list, that corresponds to the parameters that you wish to specify for the linkset.
    After the necessary procedures shown in this step have been performed, or if you do not wish to specify the parameters shown in this list for the linkset, continue the procedure by performing one of these steps.
    • If the slsocbit parameter will be specified for the linkset, continue the procedure with 4.
    • If the tfatcabmlq parameter will be specified for the linkset and the slsocbit parameter will not be specified for the linkset, continue the procedure with 6.
    • If the linkset type of an ANSI linkset is being changed, and the slsocbit and tfatcabmlq parameters will not be specified for the linkset, continue the procedure with 9.
    • If the slsocbit and tfatcabmlq parameters will not be specified for the new linkset, and the linkset type of an ANSI linkset will not be changed, continue the procedure with 10.
  4. To use the slsocbit parameter with either the chg-ls command, the Use of the Other CIC Bit feature must be on.

    Enter the rtrv-featcommand to verify that either of this feature is on. The entry SLSOCB = on in the rtrv-featcommand output shows that this feature is on. In this example, the Use of the Other CICBit feature is off

    Note:

    The rtrv-feat command output contains other fields that are not used by this procedure. If you wish to see all the fields displayed by the rtrv-feat command, refer to rtrv-feat command description in Commands User's Guide.

    If the Use of the Other CIC Bit feature is off (SLSOCB = off), continue the procedure with 5.

    If the Use of the Other CIC Bit feature is on (SLSOCB = on), continue the procedure by performing one of these steps.
    • If the tfatcabmlq parameter will be specified for the linkset and the slsocbit parameter will not be specified for the linkset, continue the procedure with 6.
    • If the linkset type of an ANSI linkset is being changed, and the tfatcabmlq parameter will not be specified for the linkset, continue the procedure with 9.
    • If the tfatcabmlq parameter will not be specified for the new linkset, and the linkset type of an ANSI linkset will not be changed, continue the procedure with 10.
  5. Turn the Use of the Other CIC Bit feature is on feature on by entering this command.

    chg-feat:slsocb=on

    Note:

    Once the Use of the Other CIC Bit feature is turned on with the chg-feat command, it cannot be turned off.

    The Use of the Other CIC Bit feature must be purchased before you turn the feature on with the chg-feat command. If you are not sure if you have purchased the Use of the Other CIC Bit feature, contact your Oracle Sales Representative or Account Representative.

    When this command has successfully completed, this message should appear.

    Continue the procedure by performing one of these steps.
    • If the tfatcabmlq parameter will be specified for the linkset and the slsocbit parameter will not be specified for the linkset, continue the procedure with 6.
    • If the linkset type of an ANSI linkset is being changed, and the tfatcabmlq parameter will not be specified for the linkset, continue the procedure with 9.
    • If the tfatcabmlq parameter will not be specified for the new linkset, and the linkset type of an ANSI linkset will not be changed, continue the procedure with 10.
  6. If the linkset type of the linkset (shown in the LST column in the rtrv-ls output) is C, or will be changed to C in this procedure, the linkset’s tfatcabmlq parameter value can be changed only if the LSRESTRICTSS7 option is ON.

    If the linkset’s tfatcabmlq parameter value is being changed, or if the linkset type will be changed to C, continue the procedure with 7.

    If the linkset’s tfatcabmlq parameter value is not being changed, or if the linkset type will be changed to or will remain (if unchanged) A, B, D, or E, continue the procedure by performing one of these steps.
    • If the linkset type of an ANSI linkset is being changed, continue the procedure with 9.
    • If the linkset type of an ANSI linkset is not being be changed, continue the procedure with 10.

    Note:

    The linkset type of a proxy linkset (LST=PRX) cannot be changed. If the linkset is a proxy linkset, continue the procedure with 10.
  7. Display the existing value for the lsrestrict parameter by entering the rtrv-ss7opts command.

    Caution:

    Turning the lsrestrict option on changes the way the EAGLE routes messages by using the state of the route along with the cost of the route to determine the preferred route to use. With this option on, the preferred route is not the absolute lowest cost available route in the routeset. A route is considered available if its status is either Allowed or Restricted. If the state of the absolute lowest cost route in the routeset is Restricted, the preferred route is the lowest cost route in the routeset whose status is Allowed. Make sure that you wish to have the EAGLE route messages in this manner before turning the lsrestrict option on.
    Continue the procedure by performing one of these steps.
    • If the linkset type of an ANSI linkset is being changed, continue the procedure with 9.
    • If the linkset type of an ANSI linkset is not being be changed, continue the procedure with 10.
  9. If the linkset type of the ANSI linkset is being changed, and the linkset is assigned to a route whose DPC is a cluster point code or a network routing point code, the new linkset type must be either B, C, or D. Display the routes that the linkset is assigned to by entering the rtrv-rte command with the lsn parameter and the name of the linkset that is being changed.

    For this example, enter this command.

    rtrv-rte:lsn=ls04

    Notes:

    1. The adjacent point code must be a full point code, cannot be an alias point code, and must be shown in the rtrv-dstn output. This is shown in Verifying the New Adjacent Point Code or New Secondary Point Code for a Linkset. Private point codes cannot be used as an adjacent point code in this procedure. Private point codes can be assigned only to IPGWx linksets. The procedures for configuring IPGWx linksets are in Database Administration - IP7 User's Guide.
    2. The adjacent point code cannot be shown in the rtrv-sid output as the system's point code or any capability point codes - shown in Verifying the New Adjacent Point Code or New Secondary Point Code for a Linkset.
    3. If a gateway screening screen set is assigned to the linkset, the gateway screening screen set must be in the database – shown in Verifying the Gateway Screening Configuration for a Linkset.
    4. The gwsa, gwsm, and gwsd parameters can be specified only if the scrn parameter is specified.

      Caution:

      When Gateway Screening is in the screen test mode, as defined by the linkset parameters gwsa=off and gwsm=on, the gateway screening action in the gateway screening stop action set specified by the actname parameter of the gateway screening screen set at the end of the gateway screening process will be performed.
    5. The gwsd=on parameter can be specified only with the gwsa=on parameter.
    6. Refer to Table 3-9 for the combinations of the asl8 and slsci parameters, and the slscnv STP option, and the results that these combinations produce. The asl8 and slsci values for two linksets that are in a combined linkset should be the same.
    7. It is recommended that when configuring randsls values on two linksets that are in a combined linkset that the randsls values for these linksets are the same. If these values are not the same, undesired SLS distribution of the traffic on these linksets may result.
    8. The spc/spca/spci/spcn/spcn24 parameter can be specified only if the Multiple Linksets to Single PC feature is enabled and turned on.
    9. A linkset may not contain both secondary point codes (spc/spca/spci/spcn/spcn24) and proxy point codes (ppc/ppca/ppci/ppcn/ppcn24).
    10. The cggtmod parameter can be specified only if either the AMGTT or AMGTT CgPA Upgrade feature is enabled.
    11. The islsrsb parameter can be specified only if the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature is enabled. If you wish to use the values 6, 7, or 8 for the islsrsb parameter of an ANSI linkset, the rsls8 value for the linkset must be yes. Perform Configuring the RSLS8 Value for ANSI Linksets to change the rsls8 value for the linkset to yes.
    12. The mtprse parameter can be specified only if the ANSI or ITU MTP Restart feature is turned on.
    13. The gttmode parameter can be specified only if the Origin-Based SCCP Routing feature is enabled and turned on, or the Flexible Linkset Optional Based Routing feature is enabled and turned on. If the value for this parameter will be cg, acdcd, acdcgcd, acdcdcg, cgacdcd, cgcd, or cdcg, the Origin-Based SCCP Routing feature must be enabled and turned on. If the value for this parameter will be fcd, fcg, fcgfcd, or fcdfcg, the Flexible Linkset Optional Based Routing feature must be enabled and turned on.
    14. The slsocbit parameter can be specified only if the SLSOCB feature is turned on.
    15. If the lst=c parameter is specified, or if the current (unchanged) lst value for the linkset is c, the tfatcabmlq parameter cannot be specified unless the LSRESTRICT value shown in the rtrv-ss7opts output is on.
    16. The value of the tfatcabmlq parameter cannot exceed the number of signaling links assigned to the linkset.
    17. The multgc=yes parameter can be specified in this procedure only if the signaling links in the linkset are assigned to the IPLIMI application, and only for linksets with ITU-I or 14-bit ITU-N APCs.
    18. If the adjacent point code is being changed, the point code type of the new adjacent point code must be the same as the current adjacent point code. For example, if the current adjacent point code is an ITU-I point code, the new adjacent point code must be an ITU-I point code.
    19. If the linkset type of the ANSI linkset is being changed, and the linkset is assigned to a route whose DPC is a cluster point code or a network routing point code, the new linkset type must be either B, C, or D.
    20. When two linksets are used as a combined linkset, both linksets should use the same slsrsb and slsocbit values.

    For this example, enter these commands.

    chg-ls:lsn=ls04:apca=240-070-000:scrn=scr7:gwsa=on:nis=on

    chg-ls:lsn=lsn5:apcn=10685:itutfr=on:randsls=class0

    When each of these commands has successfully completed, this message should appear.

  12. Verify the changes using the rtrv-ls command, specifying the linkset name that was changed in 11.

    For this example, enter these commands.

    rtrv-ls:lsn=ls04

    This is an example of the possible output.
