2.11 Scalability

vSTP supports 10K MPS SS7 traffic capacity at the system level. This allows vSTP to support redundancy and diversity at the signaling interfaces. That is, more than one active STP-MP server can support signaling interfaces pointing toward the same remote signaling point.

Topology

vSTP supports two topologies.

  • Only STP-MP servers in a site

  • STP-MP and DA-MP servers in a site

Server Group Configuration

The following table shows multiple STP servers in one server group.

HA Status

The HA role needs to be active for all STP servers as shown in the following table:
