5.2.  Protocol File Naming Conventions

When a protocol is installed on your system, several files are installed, including the protocol module(s), firmware parameter files, and country dependent parameter files. The Global Call analog loop start protocol files use the naming conventions described in Table 11.

Table 11.  Protocol File Naming Conventions

Filename	Description
pdk_cc_tt_d.psi	PDK protocol state information file
cc_tt_d.so or cc_tt_ffff_d.so	ANAPI protocol module for Linux
cc_tt_d.dll or cc_tt_ffff_d.dll	ANAPI protocol module for Windows
cc_tt_d.cdp or cc_tt_ffff_d.cdp	country dependent parameter file
cc_tt.txt or cc_tt_ffff.txt	ANAPI protocol package release note

where:

• pdk is a prefix for PDK protocols only.
• cc is a 2-character ISO country code, for example, na = North America.

  NOTE:

  The country code na is used to designate protocols used in both the United States and Canada.

• tt is a 2-character protocol type, for example, an = analog protocol.
• d is a 1- or 2-character direction indicator. Valid directions are:
  • i: inbound
  • o: outbound
  • io: inbound/outbound
• ffff is optional and defines a special software or hardware feature supported by the protocol; 1 to 4 characters.

The protocol name used in the devicename parameter of the gc_OpenEx( ) function is the root name of the .cdp file (for example, na_an_io for North America).

Examples of the files included for the ANAPI North American analog loop start protocol are listed in Table 12.

Table 12.  ANAPI North American Analog Protocol File Set

Description	Protocol Files Linux	Protocol Files Windows
Analog loop start protocol module	na_an_io.so	na_an_io.dll
Inbound/outbound country dependent parameters	na_an_io.cdp	na_an_io.cdp
Text of Release Notes	na_an.txt	na_an.txt

Examples of the files included for the PDK North American analog protocol are listed in Table 13.

Table 13.   PDK North American Analog Protocol File Set

Description	Protocol Files Linux and Windows
Analog loop start protocol module	pdk_na_an_io.psi
Inbound/outbound country dependent parameters	pdk_na_an_io.cdp
