Customer Profiles

Revised: May 7, 2007

This chapter describes various configurations and combinations of the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch and the Cisco ITP that are built on top of the basic Shared Point Code and Mated STP-Pair configurations documented in Chapter 1, "SS7 Basic Configurations" to form the following customer profiles:

•Multiple Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch Nodes per ITP

•Multiple OPCs on the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch

•Multiple Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch Nodes Sharing the Same OPC

•Geographically Separated Mated STP Pair with SG Priority Routing

Multiple Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch Nodes per ITP

This profile, illustrated in Figure 3-1, is recommended for a customer who is setting up an all-IP telephony network based on Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitches and has a long-term plan for network expansion. Each BTS has only one OPC, and this profile is appropriate when there is a requirement for high capacity traffic to each OPC.

A pair of high capacity Cisco 73XX or 7507 series ITP nodes are required to provide the necessary throughput. The topology between ITPs and STPs forms a typical SS7 STP quad. GTT is supported on the Cisco ITP.

Note This profile is only available when connecting to the SS7 network via D-links. Therefore, a mated STP pair must be used.

Cisco ITP Configuration Example

The Cisco ITP configuration information for this customer profile is similar to the basic Mated STP-Pair configuration described in Chapter 2, "Provisioning Basic SS7 Configurations". However, in this profile, extra ASP configuration information is necessary to communicate with the second Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch. There is also extra information in the AS configuration section for routing to each of the BTS nodes based on DPC (BTS OPC value).

The following example provisions ASP and AS configuration elements for ITP1:

Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch Configuration Example

Provisioning the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch for this profile is essentially the same as the basic Mated STP-Pair profile given in Chapter 1, "SS7 Basic Configurations." However, the following provisioning script is necessary for the secondary BTS:

Multiple OPCs on the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch

This customer profile, illustrated in Figure 3-2, is based on the Mated STP-Pair profile. It is recommended for the customer who wants to emulate multiple legacy SS7 switches with one high-capacity BTS softswitch.

A similar A-link profile can also be implemented. However, the A-link profile requires a separate ITP-Group for each OPC on the BTS10200.

Figure 3-2 Multiple OPCs on the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch

The BTS 10200 also supports up to 30 OPCs when the SIGTRAN signaling gateway supports SUA and M3UA in a D link configuration.

Configuration Requirements for Supporting 30 OPCs

The user must complete the following tasks to configure the BTS 10200 to support 30 OPCs:

•Configuring the Subsystem_grp Table

•Configuring the Subsystem Table

•Configuring the SLHR Table

•Configuring the SCCP_Route Table

•Configuring the Routing_Key Table

•Controlling the Subsystem Group In or Out of Service

Note The following tasks include examples of CLI commands that illustrate how to provision the feature. Most of these tables have additional tokens that are not included in the examples. For a complete list of all CLI tables and tokens, refer to the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch Command Line Interface Reference Guide.

Configuring the Subsystem_grp Table 

add subsystem_grp id=CNAM; platform_id=FSPTC235; tcap_version=ANS-92;

Configuring the Subsystem Table 

add subsystem id=CNAM; opc-id=opc_tx; local-ssn=232; remote-ssn=232; sccp-nw-id=1; 
SCCP_VERSION=ANS92; application-version=IN1;


add subsystem id=CNAM; opc-id=opc_nc; local-ssn=232; remote-ssn=232; sccp-nw-id=1; 
SCCP_VERSION=ANS92; application-version=IN1;

Configuring the SLHR Table 

add slhr id=slhr_cnam; opc-id=opc_tx; dpc-id=stp1; subsystem-grp-id=CNAM; gtt-req=Y; tt=5; 
GTT_ADDR_TYPE=CLGN; GTT_ADDR=3;

Configuring the SCCP_Route Table 

add sccp-route opc-id=opc_tx; dpc-id=stp1; subsystem-grp-id=CNAM; rk-id=rk_cnam_tx;

Configuring the Routing_Key Table 

add routing-key id=rk_cnam_tx; opc-id=opc_tx; sg-grp-id=sg_grp; si=SCCP; rc=204; 
PLATFORM_ID=FSPTC325; subsystem-grp-id=CNAM;

Controlling the Subsystem Group In or Out of Service

The Subsystem Group table has a status associated with it. The operator can control a subsystem group in or out of service. Controlling the subsystem group out of service has the same affect as controlling all the subsystems in the subsystem group out of service. Controlling the subsystem group in service puts all subsystems in the group in service.

The following CLI command controls both subsystem/OPC combinations out of service: 

control subsystem_grp id=CNAM; mode=forced; target_state=UOS;

SUBSYSTEM GRP ID -> CNAM

INITIAL STATE -> User in service

RESULT STATE -> User out of service

REQUEST STATE -> User out of service

FAIL REASON -> ADM found no failure

REASON -> ADM executed successfully

RESULT -> ADM configure result in success

Reply : Success: CLI change successfull

Alternate Base Profiles

Although this profile is based on the Mated STP-Pair configuration, a similar Shared Point Code configuration can be implemented. However, it requires a separate ITP Group for each OPC on the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch.

ITP Configuration

The ITP configuration for this profile is essentially identical to the one for the Mated STP-Pair configuration documented in Chapter 1, "SS7 Basic Configurations.". However, there is an extra AS configuration for the added OPC on BTS1. This additional AS configuration information is shown here:

Multiple Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch Nodes Sharing the Same OPC

This profile, illustrated in Figure 3-3, is used when a customer wants to share a single OPC among multiple BTS nodes. When this feature is utilized, traffic is divided in one of two ways:

1. Traffic can be split between the BTS nodes based on a per call control route basis. In this case, the BTS nodes will not be provisioned with the same DPC. This means that only one of the BTS nodes will send traffic to and receive traffic from the associated DPC in the service provider network.

2. Traffic can also be split on a per call control route/CIC range basis. In this case, the same DPC (and call control route) can be provisioned for multiple BTS nodes, but the associated trunk group will be provisioned with a CIC range that differs on each BTS node.

This customer profile is subject to the following limitations:

•Multiple Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch nodes sharing a single point code is only valid for ISUP. If TCAP queries are needed, a separate TCAP OPC will be needed for each Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch.

•. If a provisioned DPC on one BTS is also provisioned on any other BTS, then load must be divided between the BTS nodes based on CIC range.

•When provisioning call control routes on the BTS, you cannot provision two different call control routes that have the same routing key and DPC information.

Note This customer profile is valid for Mated STP Pair and Shared Point Code topologies. For the Shared Point Code topologies that connect via A, F, and E-links, the point code of the ITP Group is shared by the BTS.

Note When debugging the ITP, the version of the ITP should be noted so the associated ITP manual can be consulted.

This configuration information is similar to a basic Mated STP-Pair configuration, except that in this example there will be extra ASP configuration information for communicating to the second call agent (CA)(BTS2). Also, there is extra information in the AS configuration section for routing to each of the BTS 10200 nodes, based on CIC range. Shown below are the ASP and AS configuration elements for ITP1.

Note ITP2 will have the same ASP and AS configuration information that is shown below for ITP1.

BTS1 Provisioning

The following example documents BTS1 provisioning for routing key/CIC based routing. It is important to note that, unlike the ITP, the BTS does not configure CIC ranges within the routing key. Instead, the CIC ranges on the BTS are provisioned as part of the trunk object.

Geographically Separated Mated STP Pair with SG Priority Routing

This customer profile, illustrated in Figure 3-4, is recommended for the customer who operates two different geographically separated telephony networks using geographically separated BTS and ITP nodes. In this example, BTS1 and ITP1 are located in Dallas, and BTS2 and ITP2 are in Washington, DC.

The topology between ITPs and STPs is an SS7 STP quad. The SG Mated Pair could be connected to an STP, a service provider's STP mated pair, or the gateway STPs provided by the local service provider. The ITP pair can be colocated with the BTS in the customer's network or colocated with the STP pair in the service provider's network.

A key component of this profile is the use of SG priority routing, which provides the ability to choose which SG in the SG-Group has priority when sending towards the destinations. In this example, BTS1 will primarily send toward the DPCs (SSPs) in the Dallas network via ITP1, and it will only route through ITP2 for these end-points at a lower priority. This is useful for cost reduction if, for example, BTS1 has a POP in Dallas and BTS2 has a POP in Washington, DC.

This customer profile is valid only for the D-link configuration.

Note Figure 3-4 only shows one STP in each city. However, each city would probably contain two network STPs.

Figure 3-4 Geographically Distributed Mated STP Pair Configuration with SG Priority Routing

Cisco ITP Configuration Example

The ITP configuration in this example is similar to the one in Chapter 2, "ITP1 Configuration" with the following exceptions:

•In Figure 3-4, only one STP is shown as a route towards each SSP

•The routes through STP1 and STP2 lead towards different endpoints

The following is the configuration example for the cs7 linksets and routes: 

#

# SS7 Linkset definitions. Note: the number after 'link' represents SLC

#

cs7 linkset lset1chn 1.1.20

 link 0 Serial0/0:0

!

cs7 linkset lset2chn 2.1.20

 link 0 Serial0/1:0

#

# SS7 Route definitions

 update route 2.1.30 255.255.255 linkset lset2chn priority 1

 update route 2.1.31 255.255.255 linkset lset2chn priority 1

Cisco BTS10200 Softswitch Provisioning Example

In this BTS provisioning script, each BTS assigns one of the SGs of the SG-Group as a priority 1 SG route while the other BTS assigns it as a priority 2 SG route. In the BTS1 provisioning script, SG1 has a priority of 1 while SG2 has a priority of 2. In the BTS2 provisioning script, SG2 has a priority of 1 while SG1 has a priority of 2.

The following is a provisioning example for configuring SG priorities.

BTS1 Provisioning 

#

# SG configuration for BTS1. Note how the priority is provisioned opposite

# of what will be done on BTS2 (as shown in the next subsection).

#

add sg id=sg1; description=Signaling gateway 1 of SG GRP 1; priority 1

add sg id=sg2; description=Signaling gateway 2 of SG GRP 1; priority 2

#

# SG-GRP configuration for BTS1

#

add sg-grp id=sg-grp1; sg1-id=sg1; sg2-id=sg2 description=SG group 1;

BTS2 Provisioning 

#

# SG configuration for BTS2. Note how the priority is provisioned opposite

# of what it is for BTS1.

#

add sg id=sg1; description=Signaling gateway 1 of SG GRP 1; priority 2

add sg id=sg2; description=Signaling gateway 2 of SG GRP 1; priority 1

#

# SG-GRP configuration for BTS2

#

add sg-grp id=sg-grp1; sg1-id=sg1; sg2-id=sg2 description=SG group 1;
