For more information, please visit .AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard requires review by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer.

6、 Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views

7、and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made towards their resolution. The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing

8、, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an

9、 interpretation of an American National Standard in the name of the American National Standards Institute. Requests for interpretations should be addressed to the secretariat or sponsor whose name appears on the title page of this standard. CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revi

23、the signaling transport converter sublayer on top of the Message Transfer Part (MTP) specified in T1.111.4-2001, MTP3. T1.111.4-2001 specifies the peer-to-peer protocol for the transfer of information and control between any pair of MTP level 3 entities. This standard allows for both MTP2 and SAAL a

24、s the underlying link layer below MTP3. This standard covers the specification of the sublayer structure, the PDU structures of the signaling transport converter sublayer, and the mechanisms for the provision of the Generic Signaling Transport Service. When this Signaling Transport Converter on MTP

25、is applied for a signaling protocol entity, that entity is liberated from considering peculiarities of the underlying signaling transport service. This is achieved by relying on a Generic Signaling Transport Service that is provided, for example, by the sublayer specified in this standard. This stan

26、dard describes the interactions between the Signaling Transport Converter (STC) and the next higher layer, i.e., the BICC signaling protocol entity, between the STC and the Message Transfer Part, and between the STC and layer management. 2 Normative References The following standards and other refer

For conv

Also, at this time the

36、START-INFO.indication is sent to the signaling entity. 6.2 The Service provided by MTP This subclause specifies the information flow across the Signaling Transport Converter - Message Transfer Part Level 3 (MTP3) boundary. This boundary is defined in T1.111.1 and is summarized below. In the event of

37、 any difference between the following summary and the definitions in T1.111.1, the definitions in T1.111.1 take precedence. The primitives and parameters between the STC and MTP3 are shown in Table 2/T1.674.1. NOTE - This service corresponds to the “Specific Signaling Transport Service” in Figure 1/

40、a) See 7.2.6 of T1.111.1. NOTES 1 The MTP users should take into account that this parameter is used for load sharing by the MTP, therefore, the SLS values should be distributed as equally as possible. The MTP guarantees (to a high degree of probability) an in-sequence delivery of messages which con

41、tain the same SLS code. 2 The Cause parameter has, at present, four values: i) Signaling network congested (plus congestion level) ii) User Part Unavailability: unknown. iii) User Part Unavailability: unequipped remote user. iv) User Part Unavailability: inaccessible remote user. 6.2.1 Primitive def

42、inition a) MTP-TRANSFER: The primitive “MTP-TRANSFER” is used between level 4 and level 3 (SMH) to provide the MTP message transfer service (i.e., to transfer STC PDUs from one STC peer entity to the other). b) MTP-PAUSE: The primitive “MTP-PAUSE” indicates to the “Users” the total inability of prov

43、iding the MTP service to the specified destination (see T1.111.1, clause 5). The signaling point is inaccessible via the MTP. The MTP will determine when the signaling point is again accessible and send MTP-RESUME indication. The user should wait for such an indication and meanwhile should not send

44、normal messages to that signaling point. If the remote peer user is thought to be unavailable, that condition may be maintained or cancelled at the local users discretion. c) MTP-RESUME: The primitive “MTP-RESUME indicates to the “User” the ability of providing the MTP service to the specified desti

45、nation (see T1.111.1, clause 5). This primitive corresponds to the destination accessible state as defined in T1.111.4. When the MTP-RESUME indication is given to each user, the MTP does not know whether the remote peer user is available. This is the responsibility of each user. 1-6 T1.674.1-2002 d)

46、 MTP-STATUS: The primitive “MTP-STATUS” indicates to the “Users” the partial inability of providing the MTP service to the specified destination. In the case of signaling link congestion with multiple priorities, the “MTP-STATUS” primitive is used to indicate a change of congestion level. In the cas

47、e of remote user unavailability, the user is responsible for determining the availability of this peer user. The user is cautioned not to send normal traffic to the peer user, because while such peer is unavailable, each message will be delivered but will result in a repeated MTP-STATUS indication.

48、The MTP will not send any further indications about the unavailability or availability of this peer user unless interrupted by an MTP-PAUSE indication, or unless the local user continues to send messages to the peer user. 6.2.2 Parameter definition Table 2/T1.674.1 lists the parameters associated wi

49、th each MTP primitive. The definition of the parameters is as follows: a) Originating Point Code (OPC): The OPC parameter indicates the originating point of the message (see T1.111.4, clause 2.2). NOTE - This parameter is a fixed value per STC entity. b) Destination Point Code (DPC): The DPC parameter indicates the destination point of the message (see T1.111.4, clause 2.2). NOTE - This parameter is a fixed value per STC entity. c) Signaling Link Selection Code (SLS): Selection of the SLS parameter is based on the Sequence Control parameter received in the TRANSFER.r
