3.3.4. TUP Configuration

TUP configuration is achieved in much the same way as the ISUP configuration described in Section 3.3.3, ISUP Configuration with the following differences:

• In the system.txt file, there should be a REDIRECT command for the TUP module as follow:

  REDIRECT 0x4A 0x20 *TUP Module

• In the config.txt file, the appropriate binary should be downloaded and the corresponding license applied. The following are some examples:

  For an Intel® NetStructure™ SS7 ISA (PCCS6) board system:

  PCCS6_BOARD 0 0 0 0X0042 tup76.dc2

  For an Intel® NetStructure™ SS7 CompactPCI or PCI board system:

  SEPTELPCI_BOARD 0 0X0042 SS7.dc3 TUP-L

  See the DataKinetics documenation for more information.

• TUP parameters must be configured. The TUP_CONFIG command is described in the SS7 Programmer's Manual for SPCI4, SPCI2S and CPM8 and the SS7 Programmer's Manual for PCCS6.

  For example:

      * TUP_CONFIG <reserved><reserved><user_id><options>
        <num_grps> <num_ccts> 
      TUP_CONFIG 0 0 0x4d 0x8166 128 4096 

The options parameter is a 16-bit value containing global run-time options for the operation of the TUP module. The meaning of each bit is as defined for the options parameter in the TUP Configuration Request message described in the System7 TUP Programmer's Manual. For Global Call SS7 to function correctly, the following bits in the options argument must be set:

• bit 5 (TUPF_GSPS)
• bit 6 (TUPF_ACR)
• bit 15 (TUPF_NAI)
• Global Call SS7 requires that the config.txt file contain some special comments specifying the association between a logical circuit group and the physical device on which the circuits are located. An explanation of the usage of these comments for ISUP_CFG_CGRP is described in Section 3.3.3, ISUP Configuration. The information in that section applies when using the TUP_CFG_CCTGRP command for TUP configuration also. For example:

      * Define TUP circuit groups:
      * TUP_CFG_CCTGRP <gid><dpc><base_cic><base_cid>
        <cic_mask> <options><user_inst><user_id><opc><ssf>
      *[dtiB1]
      TUP_CFG_CCTGRP 0 2 0x01 0x01 0x7fff7fff 0x0070 0 
        0x4d 1 0x08
      *[dtiB2]
      TUP_CFG_CCTGRP 1 2 0x21 0x21 0x7fff7fff 0x0070 0 
        0x4d 1 0x08
