Creating the ISUP configuration

SS7 provides sample files for ANSI standalone and redundant configurations and ITU standalone and redundant configurations that you can modify for your specifications. Refer to Sample SS7 TDM configurations for more information.

The isupcfg configuration utility runs as part of the initial board configuration with ss7load. isupcfg reads the text configuration file and downloads the specified configuration to the ISUP task on the TX board. The utility can also be run after initial configuration to dynamically update some configuration parameters. For more information about running isupcfg after an initial download, refer to the Dialogic® NaturalAccess™ ISUP Layer Developer's Reference Manual.

Sample ISUP configuration file

The following example is the configuration file for board 1 in the two-board ANSI sample configuration:
