SCCP Entity Set

The SCCP Entity Set object is a child of the SCCP object.

The SCCP Entity Set object represents an address or a pair of load-sharing addresses to which a message should be routed. The entity set can point either to subsystems (as the final destination of the message) or to remote SCCP access points, which will themselves route the message to the final destination. Entity sets cannot route to local SCCP access points.


Parameter

Access

Description
Entity Set name Change A name to identify this Entity Set. This must not match the name of any other Entity Set.
Entity Set type Change The type of Entity Set used. Values:
  • Relay Node
    The addressing information in this Entity Set identifies an intermediate node that will need to perform further GTT, and not the final destination for the message.
  • End Node without SSN
    The addressing information in this Entity Set identifies the final destination for the message, but does not specify the target access point at that destination. The destination node will use the message contents to determine the appropriate access point.
  • End Node with SSN
    The addressing information in this Entity Set identifies both the final destination for the message and the target access point at that destination.
Sharing mode Change The sharing mode of the entity set identifies how the selection between two SAPs is specified. Values:
  • Single
    Only one SAP is identified.
  • Load share
    Two SAPS are identified. The NE picks evenly between the two (but taking into account the needs of in-service delivery and congestion weighting).
  • Dominant
    The NE sends messages to the first SAP if it is active, and to the second SAP only if the first is not active.
  • Replace
    The NE sends messages to the first SAP if it is active. If it becomes inactive and the second SAP is active, the NE switches to use the second SAP, and continues to use it; it does not switch back to the first SAP when it again becomes active.
First outcome Change First outcome of the entity set. Select from the displayed list of SCCP Remote Signaling Destinations.
Second outcome Change Second outcome of the entity set. Select from the displayed list of SCCP Remote Signaling Destinations. This field is not used if Sharing mode is set to Single.
SSN Change The SSN is the subsystem number of an SCCP access point. This field is used only if Entity Set Type is set to Relay node. Range: 2 - 255.
First remote SCCP access point Change First remote SCCP access point referred to by the entity set. This field is used only if Entity set type is set to End node with SSN. Select from the displayed list of Remote SCCP Access Points.
Second remote SCCP access point Change Second remote SCCP access point referred to by the entity set. This field is used only if Entity set type is set to End node with SSN. Select from the displayed list of Remote SCCP Access Points.
References count Read only This field tracks the count of translators that refer to this record. If one or more translators refer to this record, it cannot be deleted.
Diagnostics - logging - log level Change Specifies the level of logs recorded for this object. Logs with a priority equal to or greater than the priority specified are recorded. Set to Default level to use the system-wide default level. Values:
  • Level 10 (diagnostics)
  • Level 20 (verbose statistics)
  • Level 30 (verbose operational)
  • Level 40 (statistics)
  • Level 50 (audit)
  • Level 60 (operational)
  • Level 70 (unexpected)
  • Level 80 (error)
  • Level 90 (fatal)
  • Default level (default)
Diagnostics - API trace - enabled Change Specifies whether API tracing is enabled for this object. Values:
  • True
  • False (default)
Diagnostics - API trace - trace tag Change An optional diagnostics tag inserted into API tracing and PD logging for this object. This tag may include any ASCII characters.
Requested status Read only Specifies whether an administrator has attempted to activate the SCCP Entity Set. Values:
  • Active
    The object has been activated.
  • Inactive
    The object has not been activated or has been deactivated.
  • Disabled
    The object has been disabled.
Actual status Read only Specifies the current status of the SCCP Entity Set. Values:
  • Active
    The object is active.
  • Activating
    Activation is in progress.
  • Deactivating
    Deactivation is in progress.
  • Inactive
    The object is inactive.
  • Disabled
    The object has been disabled.
  • Activation Failed
    The object is inactive because an activation attempt has failed.
  • Failed
    The object was active but has failed.
  • Quiescing
    The object is preparing for normal deactivation. It is operating normally but will not accept any new users.
  • Waiting For Parent
    The object cannot be used because its parent object is not yet active.
  • Parent Failed
    The object cannot be used because its parent object has failed.
