Overview

Perform the following steps, with the exception of step 3 which is optional, in the order that they are presented to configure an M3UA Application Server:

  1. Create and configure an M3UA Application Server (see To create an M3UA Application Server).

  2. Modify the ASP type if required as Single Association ASP, Multi Association ASP, or AS Master (see To configure the M3UA SCTP Servers)

  3. Create an OPC CIC Range entry - Optional (see To create an M3UA OPC CIC Range).

  4. Perform the Go Online application server action (see To perform the Go Online action for the M3UA Application Server).
For SP2000

The M3UA Application Servers referencing a Call Agent (for example, a C20) must be defined with type AS Master.

This feature ensures that all MTP3 links (IPSP and M3UA MG links) in associated Network Appearances (NAs) come in service only when this Call Agent is properly connected and registered. Onlossof Call Agent connectivity, all the MTP3 links are set to Local Processor Outage (LPO) for Annex A, M2PA, LS, and M2UA links and out of service (OOS) for IPSP, M3UA MG, and ATM links. An alarm is also raised.

The Traffic Mode attribute has the following three values:

  • OVERRIDE - the ASP takes over all traffic in an Application Server (for example, primary/backup operation), overriding any currently active ASPs in the AS.

  • LOADSHARE - the ASP shares in the traffic distribution with any other currently active ASPs.

  • BROADCAST- the ASP receives the same messages as any other currently active ASP.

The M3UA ASP status displays the ASPs that are connected to the SG for a specific Application Server.
