ENTERPRISE LICENSE


Issue 13 of GR-82-CORE, Signaling Transfer Point (STP) Generic
Requirements
, replaces Issue 12, and is a module of FR-CCS-18.

This document provides the Telcordia view of proposed generic requirements
and objectives for a typical Common Channel Signaling (CCS) Network Provider
utilizing Signaling Transfer Points (STPs) in their CCS network. STPs are packet
switches in the CCS network that transfer messages from one signaling link to
another at Level 3.

These requirements describe the features and functionalities of STPs by
defining their interaction with the SS7 protocol, signaling networks, and
operations systems. This document is intended to help provide the basis for the
CCS network architecture, procedures to implement SS7 protocols, and
descriptions of provisioning, administration, and operational interfaces that
can facilitate operation of the client companies CCS networks. Also included are
capacity requirements and performance objectives to meet the overall reliability
standards in a client company environment.

Issue 13 includes:

  • Modified requirements for broadcasting/response method TFR/TCR messages
    for cases involving unavailable B/D-link set routes

  • Additional informative material providing implementation considerations for
    M2PA/IP signaling links (IPVHSLs), concerning
    • Link traffic measurements

    • Potential use of SCTP association multi-honing

    • SCTP-layer handling of protocol errors and anomalous events.

  • This GR also includes one or more Issue List Reports (ILRs) that detail open
    or closed technical issues in the main document. The ILR(s) are automatically
    sent free of charge to the GR purchaser.

    GR-82 replaced TR-NWT-000082.
