Run Menu

The Run menu includes the following items:

InitialDp Start the service by sending the SCF an

InitialDP operation. A subwindow opens where all parameters may be specified.

ServiceFilteringResponse

Start the service by sending the SCF a ServiceFilteringResponse operation.A

subwindow opens where all parameters may be specified.

NPROCES List Shows a window where you may start a new SCF process from a queued list of processes provided by the NPROCES control type.

Run Start the service without sending any initial operation to the SCF.

InitialDp Window

The InitialDp window is shown below:

Figure 2.24 InitialDP window

Shows a window where you may invoke an InitialDp operation toward the SCF. This operation initiates dialogue between the SSF and SCF.

The InitalDp window displays the parameters that are possible with the activate operation.

Mandatory parameters are indicated with an (m) to the right of the name.

Parameters which represent a choice are indicated with the word CHOICE beside their name. Choice parameters may have only one of their subpa-rameters sent. If you supply a value for more than one choice subparame-ter, only the last one is used.

Integer values are assumed to be decimal unless preceded by H’ or 0x.

Numbers with frames may be indicated by specifying the frame first, fol-lowed by the telephone number. The character & can be used to as a sepa-rator.

The InitialDp subpanel and operation panel displays the following icons:

Selecting this button will display all subparameters so that their values can be modified.

Selecting this button will remove all

subparameters from view after they have been displayed.

Selecting this button will display the

subparameters of the associated parameter so that their values may be modified.

After the subparameters have been displayed and/or modified, they can be removed from view by selecting this button again.

Selecting this button will expand the parameter so that you may view or set the subparameters.

Select this button again to collapse the parameter.

The InitialDp window contains the following input fields:

serviceKey Number information that can be used to address the correct application or SSL within the SCF.

calledPartyNumber Information used as routing address at invocation of an IN-service. It is usually a number (IN-service access number) dialled by a calling party to request an IN-service.

callingPartyNumber Information used to identify the calling party. It is a number that can be applied as routing address, for example for call back services.

callingPartyCategory Information sent in forward direction in a call indicating the category of the calling party, for example ordinary subscriber, data call,

payphone.

cgEncountered This parameter indicates that the related call has passed call gaping, indicating one or more gapCriteria was passed.

ipsspCapabilities This parameter is sent by the assisting or hand-off SSP to indicate which SRF resources are supported within the SSP. This parameter is applicable to this operation only in the physical scenarios corresponding to assist with relay or

hand-off. The use of this parameter is network operator dependant.

locationNumber Specifies the location number of a base station in the mobile network.

originalCalledPartyIdThis parameter carries the dialled digits if the call has met callforwarding on route to the SSP or is forwarded by the SCP.

extensions This parameter allows for network operator specific extensions.

highLayerCompatibility

This parameter indicates the type of the high layer compatibility, which will be used to determine the ISDN-teleservice of a connected ISDN terminal.

serviceInteractionIndicators

This parameter contains indicators used for control of the network based services at the originating exchange and the destination exchange and for providing call control information to the SSP.

additionalCallingPartyNum

This is an additional calling party number, for example a private number.

forwardCallIndicators

This parameter indicates if the call shall be treated as a national or an international call. It also indicates the signalling capabilities of the succeeding network connection. The network access capabilities do not indicate the terminal type. For example, an ISPBX will have an ISDN type of access, but the end user terminal behind the ISPBX may be ISDN or non-ISDN.

bearerCapability

This parameter indicates the type of the bearer capability connection to the user.

eventTypeBCSM This parameter indicates the armed BCSM detection Point event, resulting in the InitialDP operation.

redirectingPartyId This parameter indicates the directory number the call was redirected from.

redirectionInformation

This parameter contains forwarding related information, such as redirecting counter.

Additional CS1+ Parameters

triggerType This parameter indicates how the IN service was triggered.

legIDs This parameter indicates the legIDs available at the time of the hand over.

routeOrigin This parameter indicates the incoming route from which the call was received.

testIndication This parameter indicates that this request is to be processed by the non-operating area of the SLP.

cUGCallIndicator This parameter defines the outgoing access capabilities of a member of a Closed User Group or identifies a non-CUG call.

cUGInterLockCode This parameter indicates a code that uniquely identifies a Closed User Group within the network.

genericDigitsSet This parameter contains one or more genericDigits elements.

genericNumberSet This parameter contains one or more genericNumber elements.

cause This parameter indicates the cause indicator that was received at the TDP. Only applicable to TDPs routeSelectFailure, CalledPartyBusy, o-CalledPartyNotReachable, o-Disconnect, t-CalledPartyBusy, t-CalledPartyNotReachable, t-Disconnect, t-routeSelectFailure

handOverInfo This parameter indicates information needed to move the control relationship to another SCF.

forwardGVNSIndicator

This parameter identifies the originating service provider and information about the calling VPN subscriber in terms of a customerID or a GVNS UserGroup. The parameter will also carry routing information for the terminating GVNS network.

Selecting Send will send the operation with it’s completed parameter infor-mation to the SCF. Clear resets the window.

ServiceFilteringResponse Window

The ServiceFilteringResponse window is shown below:

Figure 2.25

ServiceFilteringResponse Window

Shows a window where you may invoke a ServiceFilteringResponse oper-ation toward the SCF.

Mandatory parameters are indicated with an (m) to the right of the name.

Parameters which represent a choice are indicated with the word CHOICE beside their name. Choice parameters may have only one of their subpa-rameters sent. If you supply a value for more than one choice subparame-ter, only the last one is used.

Integer values are assumed to be decimal unless preceded by H’ or 0x.

Numbers with frames may be indicated by specifying the frame first, fol-lowed by the telephone number. The character & can be used to as a sepa-rator.

Selecting this button will expand the parameter so that you may view or set the subparameters.

Select this button again to collapse the parameter.

The ServiceFilteringresponse window includes the following input fields:

countersValue This parameter indicates the number of calls counted.

filteringCriteria This parameter specifies which calls are filtered based on ’serviceKey’, ’callingAddressValue’,

’calledAddressValue’ or ’locationNumber’. It is a choice of ’serviceKey’ or ’addressAndService’.

Additional CS1+ Parameters

responseCondition This parameter indicates whether this ServiceFilteringResponse marks the end of service filtering or is an intermediate response.

sCFCorrelationInfo This parameter allows a more efficient correlation mechanism between ActivateServiceFiltering and ServiceFilteringResponse.

Selecting Send will send the operation with it’s completed parameter infor-mation to the SCF. Clear resets the window.

NPROCES Window

The NPROCES List window is shown below:

Figure 2.26

NPROCESS window

Shows a window where you may start a new SCF process from a queued list of processes provided by the NPROCES control type. Select a process from the list, then select the Run button to start the selected process in the

When an entry from the NPROCES list is RUN, the system simulation date/time will be set to the time indicated by the list entry. Use Set Clock in the Edit menu to change the time back to the current date/time, if desired.
