Trillium | LAPV User Adaptation Layer (V5UA)
Description
V5UA is a SIGTRAN protocol for transporting LAPV user part signaling messages (i.e.V5.2) over IP using the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP). V5UA can be used between a signaling gateway and Media Gateway Controller , between a signaling gateway and IP signaling point and between two IP signaling points.
The V5UA software is portable C source code that can be compiled to run on any processor, under any operating system, and with any system architecture. The modular design and simple interfaces allow the V5UA software to be easily ported to any environment.
Trillium V5UA software enables telecom equipment manufacturers of soft switches, signaling gateways, access gateways, signal transfer points, service control points, media gateway controllers or other products to:
- Accelerate time to market
- Reduce development costs
- Reduce project risk of internally developed V5UA applications
Product deliverables consist of C source software, documentation, training, a warranty and technical support.
Features + Benefits
Trillium V5UA software provides the following features and benefits:
- A management interface for configuration and control operations and status and statistics retrieval. It also provides protocol state and alarm information at the management interface.
- Extensive run-time error checking support.
- Extensive debugging support to ease system integration and testing.
- Support for function call traces and tracing of incoming and outgoing PDUs. Trace information is provided at the management interface and can be used to support the remote logging and analysis operation.
- Seamless operation of LAPV user peers (for example, V5.2 peers) in V5.2 and IP domains
- Management of active associations between SGP and ASP (status and control)
- Mapping between an V5 interface ID and the physical interface (E1), and the associated signaling channel at the SGP
- SCTP stream management
- Maintaining the status of ASPs at the SGP
- Support for the ASP failover model for redundancy
- Support for the ASP load share model
- Support for the NIF module at the SGP
- Conforms to Trillium Advanced Portability Architecture (TAPA)
- Benefits of licensing Trillium software from Continuous Computing
