    T ransaction-based API Operation TCAP-based applications can be distributed on multiple application hosts using two differ ent methods which are explained in details further in this document (see “Failure of Applications”, pg. 15). These methods imply running TC-user application parts (such as GSM-MAP , INAP , or IS-41) on each application host[...]

    Failure of SS7 Links Problem — With a single link to the adjacent signaling point, service is disrupted if the link goes down for some reason (i.e., layer 1 alarm, congestion). Solution — Link resiliency is achieved by using multiple links between a local point code and an adjacent point code. By definition, such links are said to belong to the[...]

    Failure of Routes Problem — With a single route to a destination point code (DPC), service can be disrupted if all the links of the link set used to reach that signaling node fail. Route failover is a standard MTP3 operation which does not requir e any specific action from the user application. Solution — T o eliminate this single point of fail[...]

    In case (A), since the F-links all exist in the same link set, messages may be sent from the adjacent SSP/SCP to either SIUA or SIUB. If an SIU receives a message fr om the SS7 network for a circuit or transaction that it does not control, this r eceive message is passed automatically to the other SIU for processing via the TCP/IP LAN. Connection t[...]

    Communicating with Both SIUA and SIUB The user application exchanges information with the SIU via API messages (MSG). In a dual SIU environment, each time the user application sends a message to the SIU, this should be directed to either SIUA or SIUB using a library function GCT_set_instance . In the receive direction, the application can determine[...]
