4.374 inh-slk

Use this command to prevent message signal units (MSU) from being transmitted on a specified, previously uninhibited signaling link.

Note:

The signaling link’s inhibited status is not preserved across a LIM reboot.

Parameters

link (mandatory)
The signaling link on the card that is specified in the loc parameter. The links can be specified in any sequence or pattern.
Synonym:
port
Range:
a, b, a1 - a63, b1 - b63

Not all card types support all link parameter values.

See Table A-1 for valid link parameter range values for each type of card that can have a location specified in the loc parameter.

loc (mandatory)
The card location as stenciled on the shelf of the system.
Range:
1101 - 1108, 1111 - 1112, 1201 - 1208, 1211 - 1218, 1301 - 1308, 1311 - 1318, 2101 - 2108, 2111 - 2118, 2201 - 2208, 2211 - 2218, 2301 - 2308, 2311 - 2318, 3101 - 3108, 3111 - 3118, 3201 - 3208, 3211 - 3218, 3301 - 3308, 3311 - 3318, 4101 - 4108, 4111 - 4118, 4201 - 4208, 4211 - 4218, 4301 - 4308, 4311 - 4318, 5101 - 5108, 5111 - 5118, 5201 - 5208, 5211 - 5218, 5301 - 5308, 5311 - 5318, 6101 - 6108, 6111 - 6118

Example

inh-slk:loc=1307:link=b

Dependencies

A card location must be specified that is valid and defined in the database.

No other action command can be in progress when this command is entered.

The card must be equipped and must be one of the following cards:

  • E5-E1T1-B, card running the SS7ANSI or CCS7ITU application
  • E5-ATM-B card running the ATMANSI or ATMITU application
  • E5-ENET-B card running the IPLIMI, or IPSG application
  • SLIC card running the IPSG application

The card must contain signaling links.

The signaling link must be equipped in the database.

If an IPSG-M3UA signaling link is used, then this command cannot be entered.

This command is not valid for E5-ENET-B cards with IPGWI links.

If an ATM card is used, then a valid value must be specified for the link parameter:

  • a-a1, b—E5-ATM-B card running the ATMANSI or ATMITU application

This command is not supported for links associated with J7 APCs.

This command is not valid for IPSG-M3UA signaling links.

Notes

If the link is already inhibited, the system does not execute the command.

If the link is aligned, it attempts to perform a changeover to alternate links. If it is not aligned, it cannot carry traffic.

If the link is the last link in the linkset, or if the node assigned to the link is inaccessible by another route, then the SS7 changeover procedure cannot occur, the inhibit request is denied, and UIM 1150 is issued. The UIM can be retrieved from the logs or from a terminal with the appropriate TRM settings.

If the inh-slk command is followed by the init-card command, the inhibition of the signaling link is not preserved after the init-card command completes.

The inh-slk command might time out if a far-end remote does not respond to the inhibit message.

Output

inh-slk:loc=1301:link=a
