Removing a Mate IPGWx Linkset from another IPGWx Linkset

This procedure is used to remove a mate IPGWx linkset from an existing IPGWx linkset chg-ls command with these parameters.

:lsn – The name of the IPGWx linkset that contains the mate IPGWx Linkset that is being removed, shown in the rept-stat-iptps or rtrv-ls command outputs.

:matelsn – The name of the mate IPGWx linkset that is being removed.

:action=delete – removes the mate IPGWx linkset from the IPGWx linkset specified by the lsn parameter.

An IPGWx linkset is a linkset that contains signaling links assigned to IPGWx cards. IPGWx cards are cards running either the SS7IPGW or IPGWI applications.

The mate linkset name is displayed in the rtrv-ls:lsn=<linkset name> command output.

Before a mate IPGWx linkset can be removed from an IPGWx linkset, the card containing the IPGWx signaling link assigned to the mate linkset, and the signaling link assigned to that card must be placed out of service.

Other Optional Parameters

There are other optional parameters that can be used to configure a linkset. These parameters are not required for configuring an IPGWx linkset. These parameters are discussed in more detail in Commands User's Guide or in these sections.

These procedures in this manual:
These procedures in the Database Administration - SS7 User's Guide
- Adding an SS7 Linkset
- Changing an SS7 Linkset
- Configuring an ITU Linkset with a Secondary Adjacent Point Code (SAPC)

Display the system-wide IP TPS usage report, and the IPGWx linksets, by entering the rept-stat-iptps command. This is an example of the possible output.

Command Completed.

If no entries are displayed in the rept-stat-iptps output, there are no IPGWx linksets in the database. This procedure cannot be performed.

If entries are displayed in the rept-stat-iptps output, continue the procedure with 2.

Display the attributes of all the linksets shown in the rept-stat-iptps output in 1 by entering the rtrv-ls command with the name of each linkset shown in the rept-stat-iptps output in 1. For this example, enter these commands.

If the status of the signaling link is not out-of-service maintenance disabled (OOS-MT-DSBLD), any in-service IP connections on the signaling link must be placed out of service. Continue the procedure by performing one of these steps.
- The recommended method is to have the far end node place these IPconnections out of service. Have the far-end node for the signaling link shown in 4 place the M3UA or SUA associations in either the ASP-INACTIVE or ASP-DOWN state. After the IP connections have been placed out of service, continue the procedure with 10.
- If you do not wish to have the far end node place these IPconnections out of service, continue the procedure with 5.
