Chapter 8 Working with Linksets

Viewing Basic Information for Linksets

Column

Description

Linkset Type

Type of linkset, which SGM determines by examining the links defined in the

 

linkset. Possible linkset types are:

HSL—The links in this linkset use the SS7-over-ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) high-speed protocol.

SCTPIP—The links in this linkset use the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) IP transport protocol.

Serial—The links in this linkset use the serial SS7 signaling protocol.

Mixed—The links in this linkset are of two or more types. (This configuration is not recommended.)

Virtual—The links in this linkset are virtual links, which connect signaling point instances running on the same device. SGM does not poll virtual linksets, nor does it display real-time data or accounting statistics for virtual linksets.

Note Prior to IOS release 12.2(23)SW1, virtual linksets on multi-instance routers were created manually by the user. Within and after that release, virtual linksets are created automatically.

 

Other—No links have been defined for this linkset.
