4.2 EPAP Entity Provisioning

Oracle recommends that EPAP entity (SP or RN) administration not be performed until after the Point Code and/or Subsystem Number has been entered into the EAGLE MAP table.

EPAP-administered entity data can become out-of-sync with the EAGLE MAP table when the creation of Point Codes and/or Subsystem Numbers in the MAP table is performed after EPAP database administration.
If this mismatch is discovered in real-time operations, a UIM is sent to the EAGLE maintenance terminal. (Example UIMs: SCCP did not route - DPC not in MAP tbl, SCCP did not route - SS not in MAP tbl.)

4.3 Prerequisites

The G-Port feature activation assumes that the feature Global Title Translation (GTT), Enhanced Global Title Translation (EGTT), or Variable-Length Global Title Translation (VGTT) is already provisioned. Refer to Database Administration - GTT User's Guide for provisioning procedures.

The G-Port feature activation assumes that the EPAP software is already configured; refer to EPAP Software Configuration in Administration Guide for EPAP.

The G-Port feature activation assumes that the Service Module cards to be installed are identified.

Note installed Service Module card locations, if any.
Note available odd-even card slots for Service Module card installation.
Determine Service Module card IP addresses and have the addresses available during the activation procedure.

For in-service systems, schedule Service Module card replacement during a maintenance window that allows the reboot of Service Module cards (init-card) one at a time.

For in-service systems with another EPAP-feature enabled, perform only G-Port Feature Activation Procedure to enable and turn on the G-Port feature. With another EPAP-feature enabled, the Service Module cards already contain the Real Time Database (RTDB).

For new systems, all Service Module cards may be rebooted at the same time using the init-card:appl=vsccp command. The GTT, EGTT, or VGTT feature must be turned on prior to adding the Service Module cards.

4.4 EAGLE HLR Configuration

This procedure configures the EAGLE system for Home Location Register (HLR) destinations before activating the GSM Mobile Number Portability (G-Port) feature. This procedure assumes that the EAGLE is an existing system in which the G-Port feature is being activated. The route to the HLR database may already be configured. Perform this procedure to verify that all HLR destinations for the feature are provisioned and to configure changes, as needed. The G-Port feature applies to ITU-I (international), ITU-N (national), and ANSI networks.

Refer to Commands User's Guide for detailed descriptions of the commands used in this procedure.

Procedure Overview

Display current PCs, CPCs, DPCs, routes, and linksets using 1 through 6.
Change current PCs, CPCs, DPCs, routes, linksets, and LIM cards using 7 through 25.

For detailed information about specific configuration activities in this procedure, refer to Database Administration - SS7 User's Guide. Useful procedures include:

Adding a Point Code to the Self-Identification of the EAGLE
Changing the Self-Identification of the EAGLE
Adding a Destination Point Code
Adding an SS7 Linkset
Adding an SS7 Signaling Link
Adding a Route Containing an SS7 DPC

Display the current self-identification characteristics (PC and CPC) of the system using the rtrv-sid command.
The self-identification characteristics of the system displayed by the rtrv-sid command include the point code (PC) assigned to the system, the CLLI code of the system, the capability point code of the STP (CPC), and the type of point codes supported by the system.

If the ITUDUPPC (ITU national duplicate point code) feature is on, the ITU national point code also contains a group code. The group code is a two-character field from aa to zz that is entered as the last subfield of an ITU national point code, nnnnn-gc (for example, 2112-aa).
Display the current destination point codes (DPC) in the Destination point code table (dpc/dpca/dpci/dpcn) using the rtrv-dstn command.
Display the current route and linkset configuration using the rtrv-rte command.
If the system point code (pci/pcn) or capability point code (cpc/cpca/cpci/cpcn) to be configured in this procedure is shown in 1, 2, or 3, choose another point code to configure with this procedure. If configuring an ITU-N network, continue to 5. If configuring a mated application but not configuring an ITU-N network, proceed to 6. Otherwise, proceed to 7.
Use the rtrv-stpopts command to display the PC or CPC format when configuring the system point code or capability point code (pcn or cpcn) of an ITU-N network.
The ITU-N point code format option npcfmti determines the format of the ITU-N point code in the database and how it is displayed in all system outputs. The defined value is shown in the NPCFMTI field displayed in the output of the rtrv-stpopts command.

To change the format of the ITU-N point code, refer to “Point Code Formats” in Database Administration - SS7 User's Guide.

Continue to 6 to display mated applications in the database. Otherwise, proceed to 7.
Display the mated applications in the database using the rtrv-map command.
1. If the point code of the system is displayed in the rtrv-map command output (PCA, PCI, PCN, MPCA, MPCI, or MPCN fields), remove the system point code from the mated application table. Refer to procedure “Removing a Mated Application” in Database Administration - Features User's Guide.
2. If the point code of the system or capability point code is a destination point code of a route, select a point code that is not in the destination point code table (refer to output in 2) and not the destination point code of a route (refer to output in 3).
Change the point code of the system and capability point code by network type using procedures "Adding a Point Code to the Self-Identification of the EAGLE" and "Changing the Self-Identification of the EAGLE" in Database Administration - SS7 User's Guide.
Enter a destination point code for the HLR location in the Destination table by network type using the ent-dstn command.
