Changing the Host Values of a M3UA or SUA Association

This procedure is used to change the host values of a M3UA or SUA association, assigned to cards
that are running the SS7IPGW or IPGWI applications, using the chg-assoc command. If you wish
to change the attributes of M3UA associations assigned to cards that are running the IPSG application,

perform the
These parameters of the chg-assoc command are used in this procedure:
:aname – The name assigned to the association, shown in the rtrv-assoc output.
:lhost – The host name for the local host, shown in the rtrv-ip-host output.
:lport – The SCTP port number for the local host.
:rhost – The host name for the remote host, rhost can be any string of characters starting with a
letter and comprising these characters ['a'..'z', 'A'..'Z', '0'..'9', '-', '.']. Hostnames are not case-sensitive
and can contain up to 60 characters. The default value of this optional parameter is empty (null string).
:rport – The SCTP port number for the remote host.
:link – The signaling link on the IPGWx card. The value for the link parameter for M3UA or SUA
associations is A.
Note: The port parameter can be used in place of the link parameter to specify the signaling link
on the card.
:adapter – The adapter layer for this association, either m3ua or sua. The adapter parameter is
optional. The default value for the adapter parameter in this procedure is m3ua.
:alhost – The alternate local host name, shown in the rtrv-ip-host output.
:open – The connection state for this association. Valid values are yes or no. When the open=yes
parameter is specified, the connection manager opens the association if the association is operational.
When the open=no parameter is specified, the connection manager will not open the association.
:uaps – The UA parameter set value being assigned to either an M3UA or SUA association.
At least one optional parameter is required.
The command input is limited to 150 characters, including the hostnames.
The maximum number SCTP association to application server assignments that can be hosted by an
IPGWx card (referenced by the lhost parameter of the association) is 50. For example, the IPGWx
card currently contains 38 SCTP association to application server assignments. The SCTP association
to application server assignments could be one SCTP association assigned to 38 application servers,
two SCTP associations assigned to 19 application servers, or any combination of SCTP associations
assigned to application servers that add up to 38. The SCTP association to application server assignments
can be verified with the rtrv-assoc:lhost=<local host name> and
rtrv-as:aname=<association name> commands.
