2.14.1 ITU Point Code Support Functionality

When an ITU-N message arrives at vSTP, an internal point code based on the 14 bit PC is created in the message. Also, the group code gets assigned to the incoming linkset. The following points must be considered while configuring the Duplicate Point Code functionality:

• If the user does not assign any group code while adding ITU-N nodes (Local Signalling Point or Remote Signalling Points), then by default the aa group code is assigned.
• For every group that is used, either a True PC or secondary point code must be provided using the Local Signalling Point command.
• When a message is received from M3UA, then the group code is determined by the network appearance present in the message.
