Chapter 1 “Introduction to HP OpenCall SS7 APIs” | Introduces the APIs provided by HP OpenCall SS7.
A general description of the HP OpenCall SS7 stack versions is also included. |
Chapter 2 “General System Guidelines” | Gives guidelines to help you develop
applications to run on top of the HP OpenCall SS7 platform. Following
these guidelines will ensure that the applications will inter-operate correctly
and efficiently with the individual sub-systems of the HP OpenCall SS7 platform. |
Chapter 3 “General API Guidelines” | Introduces the general concepts and mechanisms
that must be used when developing applications. These guidelines
are applicable to each HP OpenCall SS7 API, and must be read in association
with the following API chapters. |
Chapter 4 “Using the Level 3
(MTP3/M3UA) API” | Describes the Level 3 API and the functions
that applications can use to exchange signaling information with
the SS7 stack. The guidelines in this chapter will ensure that the application
correctly uses the Level 3 API. The same Level 3 API is used whether
the Level 3 protocol is MTP3 (SS7) or M3UA (SIGTRAN). |
Chapter 5 “Using the SCCP API” | Describes the SCCP API and the functions
that the application can use to exchange signalling information
with the SS7 stack. The guidelines in this chapter will ensure that the
application correctly communicates with the SCCP API. |
Chapter 6 “Using the TCAP API” | Describes the TCAP API and the functions
that the application can use to establish and maintain TCAP dialogues
with a remote TCAP user. |
Chapter 7 “Using the TCAP Application Message
Dispatcher” | Describes the TCAP Application Message Dispatcher. |
Chapter 8 “PIC/AG - Introduction” | Introduces the Application Guardian. The Application Guardian (Plug-In
Container/Application Guardian) is used to run a user plug-in (shared library). |
| Chapter 9 “PIC/AG - Using
the PCA API” | Describes how to use the PCA API to develop
a user plug-in (shared library) to run with the Application Guardian. |
Chapter 10 “PIC/AG -
Using the PIC APIs” | Describes how to use the PIC APIs to
develop a user plug-in (shared library) to run with the Application Guardian. |
Chapter 11 “Using the OA&M
API” | Describes the Operation, Administration & Maintenance (OA&M)
functions that applications can use to manage the MTP2, MTP3, SCCP
and TCAP processes in the SS7 Stack. |
Chapter 12 “Using the ISUP API ” | Describes how to open, close and use
an SS7 stack connection via the HP OpenCall SS7 ISUP API. |
Chapter 13 “Exchanging ISUP Messages ” | Describes how to create, manipulate and
exchange standard ANSI and ITU-T messages. It also describes the
primitives provided for IsupSMProbe and IsupBPProbe objects. |
Chapter 14 “Managing HP OpenCall SS7 ISUP” | Provides management guidelines for use
in developing the application. |
Chapter 15 “Introduction to ISUP Procedures” | Presents information about ISUP procedures,
including FSMs, interaction with the MTP layer and segmentation mechanisms. |
Chapter 16 “ISUP Call Control
- Procedures Common to ANSI and ITU-T” | Describes how HP OpenCall SS7 ISUP behaves when controlling
call setup and call teardown procedures that are common to ANSI
and ITU-T. |
Chapter 18 “ISUP Call Control
- Procedures Specific to ANSI” | Describes how HP OpenCall SS7 ISUP behaves when controlling
call setup and call teardown procedures that are specific to ANSI. |
Chapter 19 “ISUP Call Control
- Procedures Specific to ITU-T” | Describes how HP OpenCall SS7 ISUP behaves when controlling
call setup and call teardown procedures that are specific to ITU-T. |
Chapter 17 “ISUP Circuit Maintenance
- Procedures Specific to ANSI” | Describes circuit maintenance processes
that are specific to ANSI. |
Chapter 20 “ISUP Circuit Maintenance
- Procedures Specific to ITU-T” | Describes circuit maintenance processes
that are specific to ITU-T. |
Appendix A “ISUP
Library Values” | Lists the AdditionalInfo values that
can be returned by the ISUP Library in certain ANSI and ITU-T -based
scenarios. |
Appendix B “TUP Addendum” | Describes HP Opencall SS7 TUP. It describes the
differences between HP Opencall SS7 TUP and HP OpenCall SS7 ISUP. |
