SS7 MTP2 Tunneling

For the SS7 MTP2 Tunneling configuration, the MTP2 SS7 link payload is sent across
long distances (over the IP network). Both of its termination ends have SS7 MTP2
interfaces, which are unaware of the MTP2 Tunneling between them.
MTP2 Tunneling is a proprietary solution, based on SS7 and SigTran standards.

Configuration Extensions:

In addition to the basic SS7 configurations described above, the extensions below
provide more options:
1. 2 SS7 Nodes (SP/STP) can be configured per TPM
2. MTP3 supports mixed SS7 link types, i.e. one MTP3 signaling node can have few
MTP2 links and a number of M2UA links
3. Nodes can be configured as SP or STP
4. Supported SS7 variants: ITU-T, ANSI, CHINA
5. SS7 signaling links can be configured on any available timeslot of any trunk, so
that several SS7 signaling links can be configured on one E1/T1
6. F-links are supported: any mixture of voice and signaling links can be configured
on any trunk (providing that the trunk type supports SS7 signaling links - refer to
the examples provided below).
