A2.3 MTP Signalling Link

Syntax: MTP_LINK <link_id> <linkset_id> <link_ref> <slc> <board_id> <blink>
<stream> <timeslot> <flags>

Example: MTP_LINK 0 0 2 2 0 1 0 16 0x0006

Configuration of a signalling link.

<link_id>

The link’s unique logical link identity. It must be in the range 0 to one less than the total number of
signalling links supported.

<linkset_id>

The logical identity of the link set to which the link belongs. The linkset must already have been
configured using the MTP_LINKSET command.

<link_ref>

The logical identity within the link set of the signalling link. It should be in the range 0 to one less than
the number of links in the link set.

<slc>

The signalling link code for the signalling link. This must be unique within the link set and will usually
be the same as the <link_ref>. The valid range is 0…15.

<board_id>

The board id of the signalling processor allocated for this signalling link.

<blink>

The index of the signalling processor (within the board) allocated for this signalling link. It should be in
the range 0 to one less than the number of signalling processors on the board.

<stream>

When <timeslot> is set to a non-zero value, the <stream> parameter is the logical identity of the E1 /
T1 line interface (liu_id) containing the signalling link It should be in the range 0 to one less than the
number of line interfaces.

<timeslot>

The timeslot used for signalling in the range 1 .. 31. For an E1 interface the valid range is 1 .. 31. For
a T1 interface the valid range is 1 .. 24. When set to zero the signalling path through the card must
be set up manually using the switch control messages.

<flags>

A 16 bit value containing additional run-time options.

Bit 0 is set to 1 to force the use of the emergency proving period during link alignment or 0 to use
the appropriate proving period according to the MTP3 recommendations.
