Some optional features must be purchased before you turn the feature on. If you are not sure whether you are entitled to turn a feature on, contact your Oracle Sales Representative or Account Representative.
Caution:
The features are off when the system is installed. A feature that is turned on with this command cannot be turned off.Parameters

Notes
This command is not allowed in upgrade mode.
After a feature bit is turned on, it cannot be turned off. Take care in turning on features that are not used in the network configuration.
The Calling Name Conversion Facility (CNCF) feature provides a conversion of ISUP IAM messages. The facility uses the following two versions of calling name identification presentation (CNIP) for calling name information delivery:
- The nonstandard, proprietary ISUP party information (PIP) parameter.
- The ANSI standard ISUP generic name (GN) parameter.
The conversion either replaces the PIP parameter with the GN parameter or the GN parameter with the PIP parameter in the ISUP IAM message. The user can set up GWS screens to apply the CNCF feature on a per-point-code or range-of-point-code basis.
The CRMD feature allows the system to configure one route set to an entire cluster of destinations, thus enabling the system to manage and switch traffic to more end nodes.
The GTT feature allows the system to provide translation of the global title digits located in the called party address of an SCCP message. The translation consists of a point code and subsystem number. This feature requires Service Module cards loaded with the VSCCP application.
The EGTT feature provides enhancements to the way the system performs GTT for both ITU and ANSI messages. The feature allows the combination of domain (ANSI or ITU), global title indicator (GTI), translation type (TT), numbering plan (NP), and nature of address indicator (NAI) selectors to be used to select a translation table when the system receives a message requiring EGTT. The feature also allows inclusion of the translated subsystem number (SSN) in the called party address (CDPA) and inclusion of the originating point code (OPC) in the calling party address (CGPA). The feature also provides deletion capability of the GT (global title) in the CDPA.
The GWS feature allows the system to screen specific message types with selected parameters from entering the network through this STP. This feature requires E5-OAM cards.
The TLNP feature gives service providers a method to route calls to ported numbers without having to upgrade their signaling switch (end office or mobile switching center) software. This feature uses the gateway screening stop action TLNP to intercept through-switched ISUP messages on the LIM.
The LFS feature allows the system to perform a series of far end loopback tests that identify faulty segments of an SS7 transmission path up to and including the remote network element.
The MTPRS feature provides an orderly process for bringing signaling links back into service after the system has been isolated and restarted. A greater preference is given to restoring the STP to network service in an orderly fashion than to the speed of recovery. The time required is system dependent as shown:
- Up to 64 LIMs—62 seconds (Link Alignment Delay)
- 64 - 127 LIMs—97 seconds
- 128-191 LIMs—132 seconds
- More than 191 LIMs—167 seconds
The ITUMTPRS feature provides MTP restart support for ITU networks and extends the system’s ANSI MTP restart support to mixed ITU and ANSI networks. The performance of ITU MTP Restart is comparable to the performance of ANSI MTP Restart.
The SCCPCNV and TCAPCNV features allow the system to convert MTP-routed SCCP and TCAP messages from ANSI to ITU format and to convert ITU formatted messages to ANSI.
The PLNP feature provides for LNP query/response in a PCS wireless environment using the LRN method to support Service Provider Number Portability.
The NCR feature allows the system to support full point code entries on different routes within a cluster.
The Other CIC Bit Used feature is one of two methods provided as ITU SLS enhancements for distributing the load across links in a combined and single linkset. The Other CIC Bit Used feature lets the system derive the LSB (Least Significant Bit) from bits 2 through 4 of the CIC to serve as the three lower bits of the SLS (Signaling Link Selection) and one other bit of the CIC to serve as the MSB (Most Significant Bit) of the SLS. The SLSOCB feature applies only to ITU-ISUP messages. The other method of distributing the load is rotation of the four bits of the SLS to change the LSB of the SLS. For additional information on bit rotation, see the ent-ls command.
The NR feature allows provisioning of a single routeset to be used for all MSUs destined to members of that network.
The DSTN5000 feature provides the ability to administer up 5000 routes on the system. If dstn5000=on, the values of the mtpdpcq (destination point code) and mtpxlq (exception list entries) parameters of the chg-stpopts command can total 5500. Otherwise, the sum total for mtpdpcq and mtpxlq cannot exceed 2500. The Cluster Routing and Management Diversity (CRMD) feature must be turned on before the mtpxlq parameter can be specified.
The MPC feature enables the user to use SPCs (secondary point codes) in addition to the true point codes that the EAGLE uses. The SPCs are used for provisioning and routing as if they were the true point code of the EAGLE. SPCs can be provisioned in any of the three domains (ANSI, ITU-N, and ITU-I). SPCs are supported for any type of link.
The ITUDUPPC feature allows an EAGLE mated pair to route traffic for two or more countries that may have overlapping point code values.
The VGTT feature provides the ability to provision global title entries of varying lengths to a single translation type or GTT set. Users are able to assign global title entries of up to 10 different lengths to a single translation type or GTT set.
The TSCSYNC feature allows the system’s A (Active) and B (Standby) internal clocks to be synchronized by the GPSM-II card that is running the standby OAM .
The E5IS feature provides an Ethernet interface between the EAGLE and the Integrated Message Feeder (IMF), to eliminate the need for cabling between each SS7 link and IMF to monitor SS7 traffic.
The Measurements Platform feature provides a dedicated processor for collecting and reporting STP, LNP, INP, G-Flex, and G-Port Measurements data, with support for EAGLE growth to more than 700 links.
