Dialogic® DSI SS7MD Programmer’s Manual Issue 3

2.3Software Licenses

The DSI SS7MDL4 codefile supports different MTP2 link densities on the board. These are enabled using a Host Software License that is to be ordered at the same time as the hardware. The Host Software License licenses a specific number of link resources on the host that may be shared between boards in the same chassis.

For details on how to activate the host license please refer to Dialogic® DSI Protocol Stacks - Host Licensing User Guide U32SSS at http://www.dialogic.com/support/helpweb/signaling.

A combination of link types (provided they are supported by the board’s run mode) may be configured by the host (on any board) provided the required link resources are available. A configured link’s resources are freed when either the link is unconfigured or the board on which the link is currently active is reset.

The following table shows the available licenses:
