Enter the following data for each entry in the Signaling links table:

Link Name

This is the name given to this Link or connection. SS7itty creates a unique name for you, which you can override. Note that to get a unique name created when creating subsequent Links, you must reenter the submenu.

SS7 Server

Use the list generated when you press F4 to select a predefined SS7 Server. If the machine name is not present, return to the Configure SS7 Server menu and review information entered.

CardType

Use the information entered into the table under SS7 Adaptor to make a selective choice.

Card Index

Use the Instance value to define the card index. If only one card is present, set this to zero.

PortIndex

This is the value entered in the table as Port. The valid range of values will be dependent on the CardType that is selected.

Timeslot

This is the value that appears as Timeslot in the table. Valid values are 0-23 for T1 and 1-31 for E1.

SLC

This is the value that is listed under SLC. This will have been defined for the Network operator.

Priority

This value needs to be unique for each connection. Enter a value starting from 0.

Clocksource

The adapter needs to take a clock source from one of the connections. For the first connection on an adapter, select Line, and then select Other for any subsequent entries that are using the same adapter. In the rare case when the Network is not supplying a stable clock, replace Line with Local.
