# SGSN ASP Configuration Mode Commands

The ASP (application server process) configuration mode defines the M3UA end-point parameters for a specific SS7 routing domain instance. The ASP instance is generated and accessed via the SS7 routing domain configuration mode commands.

end-point

This command defines or deletes the IP address and/or port number to be associated with the local SCTP end-point for this ASP. At least one address needs to be configured before the end-point can be activated.

When using the bind keyword, this command also activates the end-point once the address has been defined. Once bound, it cannot be reconfigured until it is unbound with the no end-point bind command.
