8、ndation E.41 1 Introduction INTERNATIONAL NETWORK MANAGEMENT GUIDANCE FOR COMMON CHANNEL SIGNALLING SYSTEM No.7 1.1 As the use of common channel Signalling System No. 7 increases, its performance becomes increasingly important to the network and the services it supports. Since problems in the signal

9、ling network can affect the switched networks that it supports, and vice versa, network managers must know the current status and performance of - exchanges; - intelligent network nodes. b) signalling links; c) signalling link sets; d) signalling routes. The status and performance of the various use

10、r application parts are also importar - Message Transfer Part (MTP) - Telephone User Part (TUP) - ISDN User Part (ISUP) (see Recommendations Q.700 to Q.704) (see Recommendations Q.721 to Q.725) (see Recommendations Q.761 to Q.764) Signalling Connection Control Part (SCCP) (see Recommendations 4.71 1

11、 to Q.714 and Q.716) Transaction Capabilities Application Part (TCAP) (see Recommendations Q.771 to Q.775) Operations and Maintenance Application Part (OMAP) (see Recommendation Q.795) - - - These include: Recommendation E.415 1 CCITT RECMN*E-*4L5 9L 48b2591 0560579 L 2.2 AU signalling points should

12、 make available signalling status and performance data (counts and occurrences of critical events) to their network management center and/or operations support system. The following categories of data should be provided: - signalling link congestion status indicators; - signalling link load and perf

13、ormance measurements (utilization and congestion); - signalling link status indicators for the availability of links in a linkset; - signalling linksethoute status indicators for the availability of each signalling linksethoute; - user application part status indicators and load and performance meas

14、urements. Each category is explained below. 2.2.1 Signalling link congestion status indicators Signailing link congestion indications are significant in that they can identify the location and severity of the congestion. The onset of the transfer controlled (TFC) procedure is a key indicator of sign

15、alling link congestion. There are two types of impact associated with link congestion; local and remote. Local impact includes those signalling messages that are discarded consistent with the local link congestion control strategy. Remote impact constitutes those signaliing messages that are control

16、led at originating signalling points in response to the transfer controlled (TFC) procedure. 2.2.2 Signalling link load and pe ormance measurements Signalling link load and performance measurements are considered appropriate for the network management function and should be provided to the network m

17、anagement center and/or operations support system (see Recommendations E502 and 4.791). It is recommended that these measurements be provided on a five minute basis. Signalling link measurements can be used to anticipate signalling link load/utilization capacity problems in near real time, particula

18、rly when they are used with thresholds. Load measurement counts may be used to determine the anticipated short-term capacity of an individual link. The same measurements can be used to analyze the load balance among links of a link set. In some cases, a major component of the load might be retransmi

19、tted messages, and consequently the count of retransmitted octets can be used to identify this situation. Also important in this set of measurements are the number of messages removed due to signalling link congestion. 2.2.3 Signalling link availability status indicators Status indications of link a

20、vailability can be used to evaluate the potencial for linkset failure. For any linkset with more than one link, a single remaining available link represents a high potential for linkset failure. Out-of-service status on the links of a linkset can be used to determine the vulnerability of the signall

21、ing network to the potential loss of all links in that set, resulting in route unavailability, and the possibility of destination inaccessibility. 2.2.4 Linksethoute availability status indicators A direct signalling route between any two adjacent signalling points is the linkset connecting them. Th

22、e route is said to be available when at least one link in the linkset is available. The loss of all links in a linkset will cause the direction seignalling route between the adjacent points to be unavailable. 2 Recommendation E.415 CCITT RECMN*E.*435 91 4862593 0560580 8 = In the extreme case, multi

23、ple concurrent unavailable routes wiU create a signalling network isolation, which occurs when there is no available signalling route between two adjacent signalling points (SPs). This results in a destination inaccessible condition. The unavailability, restriction and availability of a signalling r

24、oute is communicated by the transfer prohibited (TF), transfer restricted (TFR) and transfer allowed PA) signals, respectively, Network managers must know when these conditions are present and when they have ended. Note - A complete description of these and other internal signalling network manageme

25、nt functions may be found in Recommendation 4.704. 2.2.5 Annex A to this Recommendation contains a listing of Signalling System No. 7 status indicators and load and performance measurements which are considered useful to the network management function. Additional details may be found in Recommendat

26、ions ES02 and Q.791. The listing in Annex A is considered appropriate for a fuily developed signalling network using a mesh network configuration. A selected sub-set of status indicators and measurements may be sufficient for smaller implementations. 2.2.6 User application part status indicators and

27、 load and performance measurements Status indicators of user application part availability should be provided to the network management center and/or its operation support system. Analysis of user application part load and performance measurements may help to identify the source or nature of a probl

28、em and could give advance warning that difficulties could arise if the load increases. Annex A contains a listing of user application part status indicators and load and performance measurements which may be useful to the network management function. Additional details may be found in Recommendation

29、 E.502 and 4.791. 3 Response to common channel signaiing network failures 3.1 When a problem or failure in the common channel signalling network interrupts the flow of tiaffic in the associated switched network, the affected traffic may be diverted by network management controls to conventional sign

30、alling circuits groups. It is preferable that these actions be planned in advance. These plans should identify the modifications to the automatic common channel signalling (CCS) flow control responses which may be required in the exchanges to permit the planned actions to be implemented for example,

31、 to change the normal programmed response to the receipt of a transfer prohibited signal (TFP). As more of the international networks convert to common channel signalling, the availability of conventional signalling circuit groups may become limited. This further increases the need for careful plann

32、ing. 3.2 In the case of catastrophic failure or overload of the common channel signalling network, where the pent-up demand is of such magnitude that the signalling network cannot recover by itself, it may be necessary to suppress some or ail of the traffic being offered to the affected circuit grou

33、ps until the signalling network can recover and stabilize. This can be done by the use of protective network management controls. Traffic can then be reintroduced by a graduai relaxation of the protective controls consistent with observed signalling network performance. Recommendation E.415 3 CCITT
