Toolpack:Creating an SCCP Userpart B

Applies to version(s): v2.8

Now that you have configured an SCCP network:

• If you are using SCCP to perform Global Title (GT) routing/translation (GTT) in standalone mode, then skip this step. Go to Create an SCCP LSAP.

• If you are using a TCAP, you must create a new SCCP user part, so that you can bind the SCCP and TCAP later on.

---

The user part is the container for the multiple SCCP interfaces. One user part is required for each protocol variant. Multiple SCCP user parts can be instantiated within a single SCCP protocol layer. This allows a user application to interface with multiple SS7 SCCP protocol variants at the same time. Only one SCCP user part is required for a specific variant as it can be assigned to multiple SCCP networks.

A user part can easily be seen as a protocol variant that a host application wants to use on the SS7 network.

To create an SCCP user part:

1- Select SCCP from the navigation panel

2- Select an SCCP Network

3- Click Create New SCCP User Part to access the SCCP configuration window

4- Configure the new SCCP user part

• Select the Second Concerned Point Code that needs immiediate notification of own SSN status changes
• Click Create

5- Verify that the "SCCP Userpart was successfully created" message appears
