[edit] SS7 Setups

How To's

The MTP2 links are the classic way of interconnecting SS7 over TDM.

This SCTP/IP protocol is used as network transport by all forms of SIGTRAN to replace classic TDM links.

The voice channels on Cisco Universal Gateways (AS 53xx and 54xx series) can be controlled using the Media Gateway Control Protocol. This usually complements the Signalling Link Transport so both signaling and voice can be provided on the same set of trunks.

Voice circuits on Mediant gateways can be controlled on MGCP. Specific instructions for configuring Yate and Mediant are provided.

Configuration instructions for Sangoma cards using the Wanpipe kernel mode drivers.

The SCCP can be used as a SCCP message decoder. This case can be found if SCCP is used with M3UA-GW.

A STP represents a Service Transfer Point in SS7 network.

Configuration instructions for cards using the DAHDI (former Zaptel) kernel mode drivers.


The configuration of MTP3 in Yate describes the type and Point Codes of each attached linkset.

Cisco Signalling Link Transport is a backhauling protocol that transports remotely MTP2 links on a Cisco Access Server. The transport protocol is Reliable UDP (RUDP).

We will setup a ISUP configuration in Yate to make calls.

The SCCP protocol provides additional signaling commonly used by mobile networks. In most cases the Global Title Translation needs also to be configured.

The Mediant 2000 and Mediant 3000 series from Audiocodes support standard SIGTRAN M2UA backhaul for SS7 links.

When using SCCP in a SEP, the SCCP must have a SCCP application above it to process the messages. This is usually a TCAP application.

SCCP can be used to change the network type of the messages. An example for this is passing from an international to a national network.

Miscellaneous configurations (M2UA Gateway, M3UA Gateway, Camel, ISUP)
