TCAP_CONFIG – Configure TCAP

Synopsis

The TCAP_CONFIG command provides the TCAP operating parameters and, when used, must appear after
the

SCCP_SSR

or

DTC_SSR

commands. This command should only be used when an

SCCP_CONFIG

or

DTC_CONFIG

command is present. The use of the TCAP_CONFIG command is not required and TCAP is

configured with default values if the TCAP_CONFIG command is not present.

By default, TCAP is configured with 32k incoming and 32k outgoing dialogs. The TCAP_CONFIG command
must be used to change these parameters for systems requiring a different number of dialogs.

Syntax

TCAP_CONFIG <base_ogdlg_id> <nog_dialogues> <base_icdlg_id> <nic_dialogues> <options> <dlg_hunt>
[<addr_format>]

Example

TCAP_CONFIG 0x0000 8192 0x8000 8192 0x0000 0
