# Linkset Configuration Mode Commands

The Linkset configuration mode defines the MTP3 linkset parameters for a specific SS7 routing domain instance.
In this mode, the prompt will appear similar to:

    [local]hostname(config-ss7-rd-linkset-<#>)#

IMPORTANT:

The commands or keywords/variables that are available are dependent on platform type, product version, and installed license(s).
adjacent-point-code

This command defines the point-code for the adjacent (next) network element in the SS7 network.
Platform:

ASR 5000
Product:

SGSN
Privilege:

Security Administrator, Administrator
Syntax

    adjacent-point-code point-codeno adjacent-point-code

point-code

Point-code is an SS7 address for an element in the SS7 network. Point-codes must be defined in dotted-decimal format in a string of 1 to 11 digits. Format options include:

- 0.0.1 to 7.255.7 for point-code in the ITU range.
- 0.0.1 to 255.255.255 for point-code in the ANSI range.
- 0.0.1 to 15.31.255 for point-code in the TTC range.
- a string of 1 to 11 digits in dotted-decimal to represent a point-code in a different range.

no

Removes the adjacent-point-code configuration for this linkset in the SS7 routing domain

IMPORTANT:

Removing the linkset configuration will result in the termination of all of the links within the linkset.
Usage:

Use this command to define the point-code for the adjacent element in the SS7 network.

Example

Example

    adjacent-point-code 6.202.7

end

Exits the current configuration mode and returns to the Exec mode.
Product:

All
Privilege:

Security Administrator, Administrator
Syntax

    end

Usage:

Use this command to return to the Exec mode.
exit

Exits the current mode and returns to the parent configuration mode.
Product:

All
Privilege:

Security Administrator, Administrator
Syntax

    exit

Usage:

Use this command to return to the parent configuration mode.
link

This command creates an MTP3 link configuration for the SS7 linkset and enters the Link configuration mode.
Platform:

ASR 5000
Product:

SGSN
Privilege:

Security Administrator, Administrator
Syntax

    link id id [ link-type [ atm-broadband | highspeed-narrowband | lowspeed-narrowband ]no link id id

no

Disables the specified link configuration.

IMPORTANT:

Removing the link configuration will result in the termination of traffic on the specified link.
#_octets

Sets the number of octets for the length of the LSSU.
id

This number uniquely identifies the link in the linkset.

id: an integer between 1 and 16.
link-type

Identifies the signalling type for this link; options include:

- ATM broadband -- ATM AAL5 over an optical line card (OLC2)
- high speed-narrowband -- 64 kbps over a channelized optical line card (CLC2)
- low speed-narrowband -- 4.8 kbps over a channelized optical line card (CLC2)

IMPORTANT:

Be default link-type is ATM-broadband. To support narrowband SS7, one of the other options must be set.
Usage:

Access the Link configuration mode to configure the parameters for the the link.
Example:
Access configuration for link 4:

    link id 4

self-point-code

This command defines the SS7 network point-code to identify this SGSN.
Platform:

ASR 5000
Product:

SGSN
Privilege:

Security Administrator, Administrator
Syntax

    self-point-code point-codeno self-point-code

point-code

Point-code is an SS7 address for an element in the SS7 network. Point-codes must be defined in dotted-decimal format in a string of 1 to 11 digits. Format options include:

- 0.0.1 to 7.255.7 for point-code in the ITU range.
- 0.0.1 to 255.255.255 for point-code in the ANSI range.
- 0.0.1 to 15.31.255 for point-code in the TTC range.
- a string of 1 to 11 digits in dotted-decimal to represent a point-code in a different range.

no

Removes the self-point-code configuration for this linkset in the SS7 routing domain.

IMPORTANT:

Removing the self-point-code will result in the termination of all traffic on this link.
Usage:

Use this command to define the SS7 point-code to identify this system.

Example

Example

    self-point-code 6.192.7
