Cisco ITP /without Serial interface

[zubacdragan]

Hello

I'd like to ask if it's possible to configure SCTP/M3UA on Cisco 2811 but without any serial kind of interface,only by using one Ethernet port ?

According to the document :

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/itp/RNsPDFs/RNSW4.pdf

(Caveats CSCsr01623,page 18)

Basically,I'd like just to configure one M3UA connection to far end,and do not want to connect to any TDM/E1 links,just using the SS7overIP/SIGTRAN protocols ?

Sincerely

Dragan Zubac

Hi Dragan Zubac,

Cisco 2811 is able to use Sigtran SCTP/M3UA over IP network, instead of TDM/E1 link.

Make sure the IP connectivity is ok between ITP and far end Sigtran device IP.

For detial M3UA please refer to below doc.

Thank You

Hello

Thank You for the information. I'm not sure,but it seems that Cisco ITP will not allow You to configure SCTP/M3UA in client mode,only in server mode.

When I did configured an example SCTP/M3UA connection,I was able to connect to Cisco with M3UA client application,but I was unable to make Cisco ITP to connect to far end M3UA server.

Guess it means that Cisco ITP can be used only as SCTP/M3UA server and not as a client as well ?

Regarding SCTP/M2PA ,Cisco ITP is capable to act as both server and client as well.
