In the following example, the objective is to tunnel SS7 signaling information from one Signaling Point to another via Ethernet. SIP envelops all SS7 ISUP messages in MIME encoded SDP.
The CSP can handle this scenario because it supports traditional PSTN protocols and VoIP protocols such as SIP.
Figure 7-1 Network for Example
In this network, you can configure SS7 channels on the CSP to report incoming SS7 ISUP calls to either:
• Report an Request for Service message to the host
• Perform Layer 4 routing to the SIP channels
In either case, you should configure the NPDI Interworking on the SS7 channels on the CSP #1. This way, if a call is reported to the host, the RFS will have UPDF TLVs.
If the host is required to route the call to the SIP side, the host needs to:
• Examine the Request for Service message and determine that it is an SS7 ISUP call.
• Issue a Route Control message that will have all pertinent UPDF TLVs related to SS7 ISUP parameters so that all those TLVs can carry MIME encoded DSP in the Invite message
The following sample Request for Service message for an incoming call assumes NPDI Interworking is enabled on SS7 channels.

The host needs to issue a Route Control message that embeds all of the TLVs required for this RFS. The UPDF tunneled Invite message goes out to the other CSP.
The corresponding Invite message appears as follows:
