37、rk architectures using SS7 over IP 4.1 General architectural considerations To allow a structured approach for architectural considerations regarding the use of SIGTRAN adaptation layers, the following example SS7 network is used. It should be noted that the SS7 network is assumed to meet todays fix

38、ed and mobile network operators needs. The usage of SS7oIP for 3GPP scenarios is covered in the appropriate 3GPP specifications, TS 129 202 4.

39、link setFigure 1: General SS7 network architecture This network could be formally subdivided into different segments, namely: SEP Access Segment connection of Signalling Endpoints (SEP) with each other. - associated signalling mode - connection of Signalling Endpoints (SEP) with Signalling Transfer

40、Points (STP). - quasi-associated signalling mode - STP Network Segment connection between the Signalling Transfer Points (STP). Database Segment connection between the Signalling Transfer Points (STP) and specialized SS7 nodes providing functions for the Intelligent Network or Mobile Network. This p

41、artitioning is introduced to reflect the fact that some of the protocols out of the SIGTRAN suite have been designed to serve highly specialized scenarios. Table 1 summarizes requirements for introduction of SS7 over IP in existing SS7 networks. The requirement “stepwise introduction of SS7oIP“ is t

42、o ensure that there is no impact on the SS7 network parts that do not migrate from continued use of a circuit based network to an IP based network. Only bilateral agreements between the effected nodes are acceptable. The requirement “SI independency“ is to ensure that the introduction of SS7oIP does

43、 not introduce different signalling paths for signalling messages belonging to different MTP User Parts between any two signalling nodes. ETSI ETSI EG 202 360 V1.1.1 (2004-12) 9 The requirement “seamless interworking between SS7 link sets“ is to ensure that nodes having only conventional SS7 links c

48、: SS7 Protocol stack (TDM and ATM transport protocols only) It is important to recognize that usage of the high speed option (annex A of ITU-T Recommendation Q.703 10) and the ATM based protocols using the SAAL protocol stack require the use of MTP3b according to ITU-T Recommendation Q.2210 7 (EN 30

49、1 004-1 20) to accommodate the usage of longer sequence numbers carried in XCO and XCA messages. An SEP with MTP3 according to ITU-T Recommendation Q.704 11 will not be able to handle these messages, because they are not defined in ITU-T Recommendation Q.704 11. An STP will pass these messages on if received in transit.
