2.2.4Protocol Resource Support

When used in a signaling node, the DSI SS7MDL4 board supports the Message Transfer Part (MTP) running on the board and optionally other protocols including MTP3, ISUP, TUP, SCCP, TCAP, MAP, INAP and IS41 running on the host. The protocols are enabled by software licenses. See Section 2.3, “Software Licenses” on page 15.

The DSI SS7MDL4 board supports passive monitoring of HDLC format data links including, for example, SS7, LAPB, LAPD, ISDN, and DPNSS. In this mode, the received messages are directly reported to the application. For more information on link monitoring, see Section 4.6, “Monitoring” on page 34.

It is possible to use monitor and receive-transmit protocol operations concurrently on the same signaling board.
