Close a connection only when
you are certain that it will no longer be used. Repeated creation
and destruction of connections place a high overhead on the API
mechanism. Closing a connection does not stop the application, it
only closes a specific service access point between the application
and the SS7 stack. The close functions supported by the MTP3, SCCP
and TCAP APIs also close all entities
that were used by the connection.
Rescheduling |
 |
After a connection has
been closed, you must reschedule
the API and its connections. This ensures that all the previous
calls for the connection are executed. After this, any further message
exchange and OA&M function calls for that connection are
rejected.
