Name

Send Activate Link Request to MTP3

Description

Requests that a signaling link be activated. This attempts to bring the signaling link up, through the initial alignment procedure, to an In Service state at MTP2. This does not necessarily mean that the link is available for user traffic at MTP3 because the signaling link’s inhibited status is independent of its active status.

Name

Send Deactivate Link Request to MTP3

Description

Requests that a signaling link be deactivated. This brings the signaling link to an inactive state at MTP2. If the signaling link was previously available at MTP3, it becomes unavailable.

Name

Send Inhibit Link Request to MTP3

Description

Requests to inhibit a signaling link. An inhibited signaling link is not usable at MTP3 for user traffic. Inhibiting a signaling link does not affect its MTP2 state.

Send Uninhibit Link Request to MTP3

Description

Request to uninhibit a signaling link.

Name

Send L5 PPL Event Indication Message with Data

Description

Sends a PPL Event Request message to the host with data.

Arg1

<Event ID>

1 - Remote Inhibit, the signaling link has been inhibited from the remote signaling point.

2 - Remote Uninhibit, the signaling link has been uninhibited from the remote signaling point.

3 - Local Inhibit Denied, a local request to inhibit a signaling link has been denied, possibly due to local or remote conditions.

4 - Local Inhibit Timeout, a local request to inhibit a signaling link has timed-out.

5- Local Inhibit, the local request to inhibit a signaling link was successful.

6 - Local Uninhibit, a local condition has caused a signaling link to become uninhibited.

7 - Uninhibiting Not Possible, a request to the remote signaling point to uninhibit a signaling link was unsuccessful.

8 - Uninhibit Timeout, a request to the remote signaling point to uninhibit a signaling link has timed-out.

10 - Link Activated, the signaling link has become active (In Service at MTP2).

11 - Link Dead, the signaling link is not framed properly at the physical layer (Layer 1).

12 - L5 OOS, this acknowledges a Service State Configure message from the host that results in the signaling link going from the L3P active state to the L3P "L5 OOS, L1 Alive" state. A Service State Configure message to bring L5 to the OOS state also causes the link to be deactivated.

Arg2

<Event Data>

The event data is always the normal state of the PPL component:

0 - L5 OOS and L1 Dead

1- L5 OOS and L1 Alive

2 - L5 In Service and L1 Dead

3 - L5 Alive and L1 Alive

Name

Send L5 a Message Response

Description

Generates a PPL Event Request Positive ACK to the host.

Arg1

<Status Value> 0x10 - Positive ACK

Arg2
