Student Assignment
Your assigned STPs currently have a C linkset containing two low-speed links. Your
assignment is to change the low-speed links to IP links.

After completing this practice, you will be able to:

Provision SS7 Routes, IP set up, host and associations
Allow and activate the IPSG cards and signaling links

Learning Activity 1: Provisioning IPSG M2PA

1. Log in to your assigned STP:
Login:uid=eagle
(Password) eagle
2. Enter the card, create the required destination, and change a linkset.
3. Enter the SIGTRAN card:
ent-card (loc, type, appl)
5. Retrieve the current destinations and verify that the far end point code already exists:
rtrv-dstn
6. Review the output verifying the point code at the far end.
7. If the far end STP point code already exists, skip ent-dstn and continue with linkset
provisioning.
8. Enter the destination for the remote STP :
ent-dstn (dpc, clli, bei)
The clli (silly) code is the common language location identifier (dallas, bolder, ).
9. The next step is linkset provisioning. First, retrieve the provisioned linksets:
Hint: KSR mode (F11) may work best for this command.
rtrv-ls
10. A linkset should already exist in the far end point code. Record the linkset name of the C
linkset to your mate STP.
_________________
11. Change the linkset:
chg-ls:ipsg= yes:lsn=<from above>
chg-ls:lsn=<from above>:slktps=1000:adapter=M2PA
12. Assign an IP address, submask, and other Ethernet parameters for BOTH Ethernet ports on
the SIGTRAN card.
13. Because you are using multi-homing, BOTH Ethernet Ports must be provisioned:
Optional: rtrv-ip-lnk to see the defaults
chg-ip-lnk(loc,port,ipaddr,submask=255.255.255.0,
duplex=full,speed=100,auto=no,mcast=no,mactype=dix)
Page 4
4. From the assigned practice diagram, determine the point code of the STP at the far end of
the linkset. Record here: ___________
14. (Repeat for BOTH Ethernet ports.)

15. The IP and Ethernet parameters are now complete. Next is the host table and association.
16. Fill in the table below for all host names.
Local Hostname
Remote Hostname
Port = A
17. Enter host names (four Host; two local, two remote):
ent-ip-host (host, ipaddr, type)
18. Change the IP card parameters:
chg-ip-card:loc=xxxx (card location):srchordr=local
19. Before entering the association, complete the following table:
Associati
on
Aname
Lhost
Lport
Alhost
Rhost
Rport
Port A
Port B
20. Enter two associations with multi-homing:

ent-assoc (aname, lhost, lport, rhost, rport, adapter)
chg-assoc (aname, alhost)
21. To determine what links are in the linkset, retrieve the details of the linkset:
rtrv-ls: lsn=<linksetName>
Page 5
Adapter
Port = B
22. Record the following link information:
Link
SLC
23. You have two existing low-speed links in the linkset. Delete a link (slc=0) and replace it with
a link on the SIGTRAN card.
24. Before you can delete a link, you must deactivate the link:
dact-slk: loc= : link=<link> (from above)
dlt-slk: loc=: link=<link>
25. Enter the IP signaling link with an slc value=0:
ent-slk (loc, link, slc, lsn, aname)
26. Retrieve the associations and check your work:
rtrv-assoc
27. Check whether there are any routes in the database:
rtrv-rte
28. If routes already exist, skip ent-rte and go to allow card:
29. Enter a route for each SSP point code to use the C link:
ent-rte (dpc, lsn, rc=30)
30. It is now time to enable the first IP link.
31. Allow card, activate link, and open and allow association.
alw-card:loc=xxxx
act-slk:loc=xxxx:link=xxxx
chg-assoc:aname=xxxx:open=yes:alw=yes
32. You will now delete the second low-speed link (slc=1).
Page 6
Location
33. Before you can delete a link, you must deactivate the link:
dact-slk: loc= : link=<link> (from above)
dlt-slk: loc=: link=<link>
34. Enter the IP signaling link with an slc value=1:
ent-slk (loc, link, slc, lsn, aname)
35. Retrieve the associations and check your work:
rtrv-assoc
37. Allow card, activate link, and open and allow association:
alw-card:loc=xxxx
act-slk:loc=xxxx:link=xxxx
chg-assoc:aname=xxxx:open=yes:alw=yes
STOP! Inform the instructor that you have completed the practice.
Page 7
36. It is now time to enable the second IP link.

Activity: Provisioning IPSG M3UA

Documentation
Use the IP7 Signaling Gateway and the Commands sections of the user documentation set and
the Student Guide for help with any command or step in this practice.
Student Assignment
Your assignment is to add IP connectivity to the assigned AS and ASPs.
Login:uid=eagle
(password) eagle
3. Enter the card:

ent-card (loc, type, appl)
4. Before creating the destinations for the application server, check whether the point codes
already exist. If not, go to step 5.
rtrv-dstn
5. Create the destinations for the AS:
ent-dstn (dpc, cilli, bei, ipgwapc)
6. Enter the linkset: (The linkset for IPGW has several new parameters.)
ent-ls (apc, lst, lsn, adapter, ipsg, slktps, lsusealm=80,
slkusealm=80)
apc Specifies the adjacent point code
lst Specifies the linkset type
lsn Specifies the linkset name
adapter Specifies the adapter layer for links provisioned in an IPSG linkset
ipsg Specifies whether a linkset is entered for an IPSG card
slktps Defines how much of the system transactions per second (IPTPS) should be
allocated for this linkset
lsusealm Defines the alarm threshold for the linkset; is a percentage of the iptps
parameter
slkusealm Defines the alarm threshold for each link; is a percentage of the iptps
parameter
7. Change the IP Link parameters:
chg-ip-lnk(loc,port,ipaddr,submask=255.255.255.0, duplex=full,
speed=100, auto=no, mcast=no, mactype=dix)
Page 12
2. Perform the SS7 commands (ent-card, ent-dstn, ent-ls).
8. Enter Host Names for the IPSG Ethernet port, IP address and type: (There will be three
entries, one for the local host, and two for the remote host.)
ent-ip-host (host, ipaddr, type)
9. Change the IP card parameters:
chg-ip-card (srchordr=local)
11. Enter the Network Appearance:

ent-na (na, type)
The na will be1 for the ASPs associated with the assigned network.
Enter once for the ASPs associated with the assigned network, that is, Raleigh/Clayton,
or Dallas/Hubbard.
12. Enter a signaling link on the SIGTRAN card for the linkset created in step 6:
ent-slk:(loc,link,lsn,slc,aname*)
13. Enter the routes to the AS over the IPSG M3UA linkset:
ent-rte:(dpc,lsn,rc=10)
14. Enable the BICC Control feature by using the enable ctrl-feat command:
Partum=893018401
Fak=CFV9HRM55737C
15. Activate the BICC Control feature by using the chg-ctrl-feat command.
This completes the IPSG M3UA setup.
16. Allow card, activate links, and open and allow associations.
a. alw-card (loc)
b. act-slk (loc, link)
c. chg-assoc (aname, open)
Note: If the value specified for the aname parameter refers to an M3UA
