Feature Activation Consideration

After a permanently-on feature has been enabled and turned on with the enable-ctrl-feat and chg-ctrl-feat commands, the feature cannot be turned off. Because this feature may affect other features or system databases, confirm that a purchased feature license and technical support from My Oracle Support (MOS) are available before turning on this feature. Contact your Sales or Account Representative to verify whether the feature has been purchased.

4.2 EPAP Entity Provisioning

Oracle recommends that EPAP entity (SP or RN) administration not be performed until after the Point Code and/or Subsystem Number has been entered into the EAGLE MAP table.
  • EPAP-administered entity data can become out-of-sync with the EAGLE MAP table when the creation of Point Codes and/or Subsystem Numbers in the MAP table is performed after EPAP database administration.
  • If this mismatch is discovered in real-time operations, a UIM is sent to the EAGLE maintenance terminal. (Example UIMs: SCCP did not route - DPC not in MAP tbl, SCCP did not route - SS not in MAP tbl.)

4.3 Prerequisites

The IGM feature activation assumes that Global Title Translation (GTT), Enhanced Global Title Translation (EGTT), or Variable-Length Global Title Translation (VGTT) is already provisioned. Refer to Database Administration - GTT User's Guide for provisioning procedures.

The IGM feature activation assumes that the EPAP software is already configured; refer to EPAP Software Configuration in Administration Guide for EPAP.

The NT serial number (ent-serial-num) must be entered and locked before IGM can be enabled and turned on.

The IGM feature requires a Service Module card running the VSCCP application prior to turning on the IGMfeature. The IGM feature cannot be turned on if any of the Service Module cards have less than 4 GB of memory installed.

The IGM feature activation assumes that the Service Module cards to be installed are identified.

  • Note installed Service Module card locations, if any.

  • Note available odd-even card slots for Service Module card installation.

  • Determine Service Module card IP addresses and have them available during the activation procedure.

For in-service systems, schedule Service Module card replacement in maintenance window that allows the reboot of Service Module cards (init-card:loc=<Service Module card location>) one at a time.

For in-service systems that already have another EPAP-related feature enabled, perform only IGM Feature Activation Procedure to turn on the IGM feature. With another EPAP-related feature enabled, the Service Module cards already contain the Real Time Database ( RTDB).

For new systems, Service Module cards may be rebooted all at one time using the init-card:appl=vsccp command. For new systems, GTT, EGTT, or VGTT features must be turned on prior to the reboot of all Service Module cards.

4.4 EAGLE HLR Destinations Configuration

This procedure configures tche EAGLE system for Home Location Register (HLR) destinations before activating the EPAP-related feature. This procedure assumes that the EAGLE is an existing system in which an EPAP-related feature is being activated. The route to the HLR database may already be configured. Perform this procedure to verify that all HLR destinations for the feature are provisioned and to configure changes, as needed.

Procedure Overview

  • Display current PCs, CPCs, DPCs, routes, and linksets using 1 through 6.

  • Change current PCs, CPCs, DPCs, routes, linksets, and LIM cards using 7 through 25.

For detailed information about specific configuration activities in this procedure, refer to these topics in Database Administration - SS7 User's Guide:

  • Point Code Formats

  • Adding a Point Code to the Self-Identification of the EAGLE

  • Changing the Self-Identification of the EAGLE

  • Adding a Destination Point Code

  • Adding an SS7 Linkset

  • Adding an SS7 Signaling Link

  • Adding a Route Containing an SS7 DPC

  1. Display the current self-identification characteristics (PC and CPC) of the system using the rtrv-sid command.
    The self-identification characteristics of the system displayed by the rtrv-sid command include the point code (PC) assigned to the system, the CLLI code of the system, the capability point code of the STP (CPC), and the type of point codes supported by the system.
    If the ITUDUPPC (ITU national duplicate point code) feature is on, the ITU national point code also contains a group code. The group code is a two-character field from aa to zz that is entered as the last subfield of an ITU national point code, nnnnn-gc (for example, 2112-aa).
  2. Display the current destination point codes (DPC) in the Destination point code table using the rtrv-dstn command.
  3. Display the current route and linkset configuration using the rtrv-rte command.
  4. If the system point code (pci/pcn) or capability point code to be configured in this procedure is shown in 1, 2, or 3, choose another point code to configure with this procedure. If configuring an ITU-N network, continue to 5. If configuring a mated application but not configuring an ITU-N network, proceed to 6. Otherwise, proceed to 7.
  5. Use the rtrv-stpopts command to display the PC or CPC format when configuring the system point code or capability point code of an ITU-N network.
    The ITU-N point code format option npcfmti determines the format of the ITU-N point code in the database and how it is displayed in all system outputs. The defined value is shown in the NPCFMTI field displayed in the output of the rtrv-stpopts command.

    To change the format of the ITU-N point code, refer to “Point Code Formats” in Database Administration - SS7 User's Guide.

    Continue to 6to display mated applications in the database. Otherwise, proceed to 7.

  6. Display the mated applications in the database using the rtrv-map command.
    1. If the point code of the system is displayed in the rtrv-map command output , remove the system point code from the mated application table. Refer to procedure “Removing a Mated Application” in Database Administration - Features User's Guide.
    2. If the point code of the system or capability point code is a destination point code of a route, select a point code that is not in the destination point code table (refer to output in 2) and not the destination point code of a route (refer to output in 3).
  7. Change the point code of the system and capability point code by network type using procedures "Adding a Point Code to the Self-Identification of the EAGLE" and "Changing the Self-Identification of the EAGLE" in Database Administration - SS7 User's Guide.
  8. Enter a destination point code for the HLR location in the Destination table by network type using the ent-dstn command.

    Command examples:

    ent-dstn:dpci=2-100-2

    ent-dstn:dpcn=21112

    where:

    BACKUP (FIXED): MASP A - Backup on standby MASP to fixed disk complete.
The HLR destinations are now configured and ready for activation of the EPAP-related feature.

4.5 IGM Feature Activation Procedure

Use this procedure to enable, turn on, and configure the IS41 GSM Migration (IGM) feature.

Caution:

Before starting this procedure, contact My Oracle Support (MOS) for assistance in performing the feature activation procedure. Do not proceed without consulting with Technical Services.
  1. Enter the enable-ctrl-feat command to enable the IGM feature:
    enable-ctrl-feat:partnum=893017301:fak=<Feature Access Key>
  2. Enter the chg-ctrl-feat command to turn on the IGM feature:
    chg-ctrl-feat:partnum=893017301:status=on
  3. Enter the default country code and default network destination code to convert the nature of address indicator (NAI) of MSISDNs to the international format (nai=intl), by entering the chg-stpopts command.

    For example:

    chg-stpopts:defcc=1:defndc=38:dsmaud=on:npcfmti=2-9-2-1

    where:

    :defcc

    Default country code

    :defndc

    Default network destination code

    :dsmaud

    Service Module card checksum audit running state (on or off)

    :npcfmti

    ITU National Point Code Format Identifier, which identifies how the ITU national point code is entered into the database and how it is displayed in all EAGLE outputs. The ITU national point code is a 14-bit integer.

  4. Verify the new country code and network destination code, using the rtrv-stpopts command.
  5. Change the GSM system options in the database, using the chg-gsmopts command.

    For example:

    chg-gsmopts:defmapvr=2:is412gsm=34:msrsndig=ccrndn:srfaddr=23448:srfnai=7:srfnp=15

    where:

    :defmapvr
    Default MAP version
    is412gsm
    IS41 to GSM migration prefix
    :msrndig

    Routing Number to be used as is or to be concatenated with the MSISDN

    :srfaddr

    Entity address of the MNP_SRF node

    :srfnai

    Nature of Address Indicator value of the MNP_SRF

    :srfnp

    Numbering Plan value of the MNP_SRF

  6. Verify the changes, using the rtrv-gsmopts command to display all GSM system option values from the database.
  7. Change the IS41 system options in the database, using the chg-is41opts command.
  8. Verify the changes using the rtrv-is41opts command to display all IS41 system option values from the database.
  9. Add Routing Number prefixes for the operating network, using the ent-homern command. Add Home RNs that are prefixed to DNs for incoming INPMR messages. Up to 100 Routing Number prefixes for the operating network can be added to the HOMERN table.

    For example:

    ent-homern:rn=34

    where:

    :rn

    Home routing number prefix. Parameter value is 1 to 15 hex digits (0-F).

  10. Verify the changes using the rtrv-homern command to retrieve a list of Routing Number prefixes that belong to the operating network.
  11. Display the list of administered service selector combinations, using the rtrv-srvsel command.
    Avoid lengthy output by using various parameter combinations to filter the list . The Service Selector table can have over 1,000 entries.
  12. Enter the IGM service selectors by network type, if necessary, using the ent-srvsel command.
    This command assigns applicable service selectors required to specify the service entry for Service Module card services.

    For example:

    ent-srvsel:gtii=4:nai=intl:np=e164:serv=mnp:snai=intl:snp=e164:ssn=9:tt=1

    where:

    :gtii

  13. Verify the changes, using the rtrv-srvsel command to retrieve the list of administered service selector combinations.
    Avoid lengthy output by using various parameter combinations to filter the list . The Service Selector table can have over 1,000 entries.

    For example:

    rtrv-srvsel:gtii=2

    rtrv-srvsel:gtii=4

    where:

    gtii
    Global title indicator, ITU international

    Caution:

    GTT, EGTT, and VGTT traffic is routed based on the global titles in the OAM database while G-Flex, G-Port, A-Port, and INP traffic is routed based on the global title in the RTDB. Rebooting a Service Module card running the SCCPHC application causes both the OAM databases and the RTDB on the Service Module card to reload.
  14. Verify that the Service Module card returns to In-Service-Normal (IS-NR) state, using the rept-stat-card command.

    warning:

    Do not proceed until In-Service-Normal (IS-NR) state of the Service Module card is restored.
  15. After In-Service-Normal (IS-NR) state of the Service Module card is restored and verified using the rept-stat-card command, repeat step 14 for each Service Module card in the system.
  16. Set the IGM service state online using chg-sccp-serv:serv=mnp:state=online.
  17. Confirm that the activation steps were successful by performing the following verifications:
    • Verify that all Service Module cards are loaded and are in In-Service-Normal (IS-NR) state, using the rept-stat-sccp command.
    • Verify that all Service Module cards and the EPAP are connected and operational, using the rept-stat-mps command.
    • Verify that database levels are identical for the EPAP PDB and RTDB. Display the RTDBs on the Service Module cards, using rept-stat-db:display=all .
  18. Back up the database changes using the chg-db:action=backup:dest=fixed command.
    The following messages appear; the active Maintenance and Administration Subsystem Processor (MASP) appears first.
    BACKUP (FIXED): MASP A - Backup starts on active MASP.
    BACKUP (FIXED): MASP A - Backup on active MASP to fixed disk complete.
    BACKUP (FIXED): MASP A - Backup starts on standby MASP.
    BACKUP (FIXED): MASP A - Backup on standby MASP to fixed disk complete.
The IS41 GSM Migration (IGM) feature is now enabled, turned on, and operating in the system.

4.6 LOCREQ Query Response Activation Procedure

This procedure is used to enable and turn on the LOCREQ Query Response feature in the EAGLE.

Prerequisites

  • A-Port or IS41 GSM Migration (IGM) must be enabled and turn on before the LOCREQ Query Response feature can be enabled.

  • The LOCREQ Query Response feature is optional and must be purchased to receive the Feature Access Key (FAK) that is required to enable the feature. Contact your Sales Representative or Account Representative to determine whether you are entitled to use the LOCREQ Query Response feature has been purchased and for additional information.

The LOCREQ Query Response feature is enabled using part number 893038501 and the Feature Access Key (FAK). The LOCREQ Query Response feature cannot be disabled after it is enabled and cannot be enabled with a temporary FAK. After the LOCREQ Query Response feature is enabled and turned on, the LOCREQ Query Response feature cannot be turned off.

Some parameters and options used with the LOCREQ Query Response feature can be provisioned after the LOCREQ Query Response feature is enabled, but before the LOCREQ Query Response feature is turned on. The locreqrspnd option of the chg-is41opts command can be modified only if the LOCREQ Query Response feature is enabled and turned on. The dfltrn parameter of the chg-is41opts command can be modified only if the LOCREQ Query Response feature is enabled. The sporttype parameter of the chg-is41opts command can be modified only if both the Service Portabilty feature and the LOCREQ Query Response feature are enabled.

LOCREQ Query Response processing cannot occur until:

  • The LOCREQ Query Response feature is enabled and turned on.

  • The locreqrspnd option of the chg-is41opts command is set to on.

  1. Display the status of controlled features controlled by Feature Access Keys (FAKs). The resulting output displays the features that are enabled in the system and the on/off status for each feature.

4.7 Service Portability Activation Procedure

This procedure is used to enable and turn on the Service Portability (S-Port) feature in the EAGLE.

The Service Portability feature is optional and must be purchased from Oracle. The feature must be purchased to receive the Feature Access Key (FAK) that is required to enable the feature. Contact your Oracle Sales Representative or Account Representative to determine whether you are entitled to use the Service Portability feature has been purchased and for additional information.

The Service Portability (S-Port) feature is enabled using part number 893034301 and the Feature Access Key (FAK). The S-Port feature cannot be disabled after it is enabled and cannot be enabled with a temporary FAK. After the S-Port feature is enabled and turned on, the S-Port feature can be turned off.

S-Port options can be provisioned after the S-Port feature is enabled and before the S-Port feature is turned on. After the S-Port feature is enabled and provisioning is complete, the S-Port feature must be turned on (status set to on), before S-Port processing will occur.
