A linkset is a logical set of one or more links originating from an SS7 node (STP) and connecting to an adjacent node. In this example, the linkset contains communication links that connect from the signaling controller to an adjacent STP.
You must provision one linkset for each connection through the STP to the signaling controller. The shaded area in Figure 3-5 shows the linksets you provision in this example.
Figure 3-5 Adding Linksets
Verifying Linksets
To verify that you have entered the linksets, enter the prov-rtrv:lnkset:name="MML name" command for each linkset. For example, to verify the first linkset:
machine-name mml> prov-rtrv:lnkset:name="ls01"Media Gateway Controller 2000-04-04 15:18:40M RTRV"session=dialcfg1:lnkset"/*NAME = ls01DESC = Linkset from signaling controller to STP AAPC = apc1PROTO = SS7-ANSITYPE = IP*/;

Note
Adding the SS7 Subsystem
You must add an SS7 subsystem that identifies each pair of mated STPs. This allows the signaling controller to route traffic over the C-links between the STPs in case of a failure between one of the STPs and an endpoint.
The shaded area in Figure 3-6 shows the STPs you must connect (STP A and STP B).
Figure 3-6 Adding the SS7 Subsystem
Verifying the SS7 Subsystem
To verify that you have added the SS7 subsystem, enter the prov-rtrv:ss7subsys:name="subsys1" command:

An SS7 route is a path through a linkset between the signaling controller and another signaling controller or TDM switch. In this example, the SS7 routes indicate the linksets that carry SS7 signals between the signaling controller and the PSTN switch A.
You must add an SS7 route for each signaling path from the signaling controller to the PSTN switch A. You provision a route for each linkset. The shaded area in Figure 3-7 shows the SS7 routes you provision for this example.
Figure 3-7 Adding SS7 Routes
Verifying SS7 Routes
To verify that you have entered the SS7 routes, enter the prov-rtrv:ss7route:name="MML name" command for each SS7 route. For example, to verify the first SS7 route:

The SS7 signaling service specifies the path and the protocol variant that the signaling controller uses to communicate with a remote switch (SSP) that sends bearer traffic to the NASs.
You must add an SS7 signaling service from the signaling controller to the PSTN switch. The shaded area in Figure 3-8 shows the signaling service you are adding.
Figure 3-8 Adding the SS7 Signaling Service
Note
Verifying the SS7 Signaling Service
To verify that you have added the SS7 signaling service, enter the prov-rtrv:ss7path:name="ss7sigsvc" command:

You must provision links for all physical connections bearing signals that enter and exit the signaling controller. This includes SS7 signals from the SSP (PSTN Switch A) and signals to the NASs. You must add the following components:
•
•
•
Adding Adapters (Cards)
You must add a card component for each card in the signaling controller. For the example in this chapter, you add one Ethernet card for each connection to the IP network—one card for the 10-Mb signaling network and one for the 100-Mb signaling network. These cards permit SS7 signaling between the signaling controller and the Cisco SLTs. The shaded area in Figure 3-9 shows the Ethernet cards you provision in this sample.
Note
Figure 3-9 Adding Adapters (Cards)
Verifying Adapters (Cards)
To verify that you have entered the cards, enter the prov-rtrv:card:name="MML name" command. For example, to verify the first Ethernet card:
machine-name mml> prov-rtrv:card:name="encard1"Media Gateway Controller 2000-03-03 20:38:44M RTRV"session=dialcfg1:card"/*NAME = encard1DESC = Ethernet Card 1TYPE = ENSLOT = 0*/;

Note
Adding Ethernet Interfaces
The Ethernet interface provides the physical line interface between the signaling controller's Ethernet card and the physical Ethernet network. You must add an Ethernet interface if you have added an Ethernet card.
Verifying Ethernet Interfaces
To verify that you have entered the Ethernet interfaces, enter the prov-rtrv:enetif:name="MML name" command. For example, to verify the first Ethernet interface:
va-testing mml> prov-rtrv:enetif:name="enetif1"Media Gateway Controller 2000-03-03 20:40:05M RTRV"session=dialcfg1:enetif"/*NAME = enetif1DESC = Ethernet interface for Card 1CARD = encard1*/;

A C7 IP link component identifies a link between the Cisco SLT's IP address and port, and an SSP or an STP in the SS7 network. The C7 IP link identifies one of the links within a linkset.
Note
Release 2.0 uses TDM cards and TDM links.You must add a C7 IP link for each physical SS7 link that is connected to the SS7 network through the Cisco SLT. These links correspond to the linksets you created in the "Adding Linksets" section. The shaded area in Figure 3-10 shows the C7 IP links you provision in this example.

file is complete, save it in the /opt/TransPath/etc/cust_specific directory by using filename.extension (for example, trunks.txt.) Then use the prov-add:files command to load the table.
Note
Caution
To provision the trunks:
Step 1
Use a text editor to create the trunk text file.
Provisions the fields needed for creation of trunks.
Step 2
Save the file in /opt/TransPath/etc/cust_specific.
Note
Puts the file in the correct directory.
Step 3
Start a provisioning session. (See "Starting the Provisioning Session" section.)
Begins the session.
Step 4
Enter the prov-add:files command:
machine-name mml> prov-add:files:name="BCFile",file="trunks.txt",actio n="import"Media Gateway Controller 2000-03-04 13:16:43M COMPLD"files";Imports a trunk or bearer channel file (BCFile) called trunks.txt from the opt/TransPath/etc/cust_specific or /opt/CiscoMGC/etc/cust_specific directory.
Verifying Trunks
To verify that you have added the trunks, exit MML and change to the /opt/TransPath/etc/CONFIG_LIB/CFG_dialcfg1 directory.
Note
View the bearChan.dat file to ensure it contains the trunk information from the trunks.txt file you imported. The following example shows part of the bearChan.dat file:

Although you can add individual trunks with MML, doing so is not recommended if you have a large number of trunks to add. Using MML to add trunks requires that you enter the command to add individual trunks for each of the 264 trunks that you need to provision.
Note
To add individual trunks:

Provisioning the Dial Plan/Number Analysis
The signaling controller provides the ability to create a dial plan to perform number analysis on both the A (calling) number and B (called) number. You can set up dial plans to perform routing, send calls to announcement servers, modify dialed digits, and perform other results.
You do not use the advanced features in the dial plan for the Cisco SS7 Interconnect for Access Servers Solution and the Cisco SS7 Interconnect for Voice Gateways Solution. In these solutions, the signaling controller routes calls directly over the IP network and does not perform routing or switching to
trunk groups.Provisioning White and Black List Screening
In the Cisco SS7 Interconnect for Access Servers Solution, you might want to perform white and black list screening to include or exclude calls from certain numbers. You can provision white lists that specify allowed A-numbers (calling numbers) or B-numbers (called numbers). Black lists block specified A-numbers (calling numbers) or B-numbers (called numbers).
For instructions on using the CMM to provision a sample B white list, see "Configuring the B White List" section.
For information on using MML to provision black and white list screening, see Chapter 6, "Adding System Components with MML," in the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 7 Provisioning Guide.
Deploying the Session
The example used in this chapter features a continuous-service SC node. You must deploy the session to save it to the machine you are provisioning. The system then copies the files to the standby SC node.

You can create a file of MML provisioning commands for use as a batch file. All commands are in a single ASCII text file; when they are read by MML, the commands are executed sequentially.
Note
If you use an MML batch file, you can cut and paste commands, and you can use the batch files repeatedly to "reprovision" the signaling controller or to quickly provision multiple signaling controllers. However, if you intend to run the batch file multiple times on the same host, plan the source and destination directories carefully.
Tip
Creating the File
To create a batch file, use an ASCII text editor to create a new file with one MML command on each line, ending with a carriage return. You can use any name for the file (follow UNIX file naming conventions), and you can store it in any location. However, the file must be accessible on the machine where you run MML sessions.

If you are not ready to commit a session, use the prov-stp command to save and stop the provisioning session.
The prov-cpy or prov-dply command makes the provisioning session active and automatically stops the provisioning session.
Processing the File
To process the batch file, use the mml -b path/filename UNIX command.
Verifying the File
After you enter the command, MML displays the result of each command as it is executed. When the batch file is done, the MML session is closed.
To verify that you have deployed the configuration, log in and begin an MML session. Enter the prov-rtrv:all command and verify that the active configuration shown is the one you provisioned.
