STREAMS Design

This page provides a roadmap to the design information that is available on the OpenSS7 website. The design information is orgnaized by project. Some (possibly more current) design information is included with the software downloads on our downloads page.

The major design areas are as follows:

Application Designs
SS7 Stack Design
ISDN Stack Design
SS7 over IP Design
VoIP Stack Design
MG Switching Design
Transport Design
SS7/ISDN Device Driver Design
Embedded Systems Design

Application Designs

This section includes application designs for the HLR, SMSC, IN, LNP, CS/AIN, OpenSwitch, Asterisk PBX and Kannel projects.

SS7 Stack Design

This section presents designs for the SS7 stack components: MTP3, SCCP, TCAP, ISUP, BICC.

ISDN Stack Design

This section presents designs for the ISDN-related stack components: ISDN, DL, V5.2, GR-303.

SS7 over IP Design

This section presents designs for the SIGTRAN components: M2UA, M3UA, SUA, and TUA; and the TALI components: TALI.

VoIP Stack Design

This section presents designs for the VoIP stack components: H225, SIPT, and BICC over SSCOPMCE.

MG Switching Design

This section presents designs for the MG switching components: CH, MX, MG, MGCP, MEGACO H248, H245, RTP.

Transport Design

This section provides designs for transport components such as Stream Control Transmission Protoocl (SCTP), TCP, UDP and SSCOP-MCE.

SS7/ISDN Device Driver Design

This section presents designs for the device drivers for the ACB56, UDP, and M2PA (over SCTP) and MTP3b (over SSCOP-MCE).

Embedded System Design

This section presents designs for embedded system development for the OpenSS7 SS7 stack. These discuss using blade architectures with OpenSS7.

Linux Kernel Design (Deprecated)

Writing Device Drivers (Deprecated)

These pages provide a description of the original Linux Kernel Native SS7 stack design. This implementation was abandonned in favor of the STREAMS implementation using the LiS. (Linux STREAMS) package available under LGPL from Gcom.
