2 Configuring Destination Tables
Chapter 2, Configuring Destination Tables, describes the methods for configuring destination point codes (DPCs) in the database of the EAGLE.
2.1 Adding a Cluster Point Code
This procedure is used to add a cluster point code for the cluster routing and management diversity feature to the database. This procedure uses the EAGLE commands rtrv-feat
, chg-feat
, rtrv-stpopts
, chg-stpopts
, rtrv-ctrl-feat
, rtrv-dstn
, and chg-db
. For more information on this procedure, see “Adding a Cluster Point Code” in Database Administration – SS7 User's Guide.
Note:
Once the cluster routing and management diversity and nested cluster routing features are turned on with thechg-feat
command, they cannot be turned off.
The cluster routing and management diversity and nested cluster routing features must be purchased before you turn the features on with the chg-feat
command. If you are not sure whether you have purchased the cluster routing and management diversity and nested cluster routing features, contact your Oracle Sales Representative or Account Representative.
Note:
A cluster point code cannot be a proxy point code.If you wish to use the following parameters of the EAGLE’s ent-dstn
command: nprst
, rcause
, sccpmsgcnv
, or splitiam
parameters, perform the “Adding a Cluster Point Code” procedure in Database Administration - SS7 User's Guide using the SEAS FLOW-THRU
command with the EAGLE commands.
The EAGLE accepts the values for the ncai
parameter as a supplier specific parameters. Table 2-1 shows how the EAGLE ncai
parameter values are mapped to the SEAS values. For more information on the ncai
parameter, see “Adding a Cluster Point Code” in Database Administration - SS7 User's Guide.
Table 2-1 NCAI Supplier Specific Parameter Values
Supplier Specific Parameters | EAGLE Parameter Value | SEAS Parameter Value | Definition |
---|---|---|---|
NCAI |
YES NO |
1 0 |
The nested cluster allowed indicator. This parameter specifies whether or not the route to the cluster point code can be different from the route to a point code that is a member of the cluster point code. |
The supplier specific parameter is optional. The default value for the supplier specific parameter will be entered if that parameter is not specified when adding a cluster point code. The default value for the NCAI
parameter is NO
.
To change the attributes of an existing cluster point code, perform the Changing the Attributes of a Cluster Point Code procedure.
To remove a cluster point code from the database, perform the Removing a Destination Point Code procedure.

2.4 Changing the Self Identification of the EAGLE
This procedure is used to change the self identification of the EAGLE. For more information on this procedure, see the “Changing the Self Identification of the EAGLE” procedure in Database Administration - SS7 User's Guide. This procedure uses these EAGLE commands.
init-sys
|
rtrv-sid
|
rtrv-dstn
|
rtrv-feat
|
rtrv-spc
|
rtrv-eiscopy
|
chg-eiscopy
|
rtrv-stpopts
|
chg-stpopts
|
rtrv-gws-redirect
|
chg-db
|
rtrv-pct |
If you wish to use the cpctype
, pctype
, pci
, pcn
, or pcn24
parameters of the EAGLE’s chg-sid
command, perform the “Changing the Self Identification of the EAGLE” procedure in Database Administration - SS7 User's Guide using the SEAS FLOW-THRU
command with the EAGLE commands.
Caution:
Use this procedure only during periods of low traffic. If the EAGLE’s point code is changed with the procedure, the EAGLE must be reinitialized with the EAGLE’sinit-sys
command. The init-sys
command reboots the entire EAGLE and reloads all cards with the updated self identification information.
Caution:
When theinit-sys
command executes, the state of the signaling links, TCP/IP data links, cards, and terminals after the init-sys
command executes depends on whether the restore device state option is on or off. The value of this option is shown in the RSTRDEV
field of the rtrv-stpopts
output.
If the value of the restore device state option is off
, the EAGLE does not retain the manually initiated state (for example, OOS-MT-DSBLD) for the signaling links, TCP/IP data links, cards, or the terminals. After the command executes, the EAGLE attempts to bring all provisioned links, cards, and terminals on line, including those that were previously out of service. You will need to manually put each device back into its previous state after the EAGLE is back on line. It is, therefore, advisable to print or electronically capture the output of the EAGLE’s rept-stat-slk
, rept-stat-dlk
, rept-stat-card
, and rept-stat-trm
commands for reference prior to issuing the init-sys
command. To restore a device to its previous state, issue the appropriate inhibit/deactivate command listed in Commands User's Guide in the Related Commands section for each of the above rept-stat
commands.
If the value of the restore device state option is on
, the state the signaling links, TCP/IP data links, cards, and terminals is not changed after the init-sys
command is performed. No manual intervention is required to put the device back into its previous state after the EAGLE is back on line.
To change the value of the restore device state option, perform the “Changing the Restore Device State Option” procedure in Database Administration - System Management User's Guide.
