SSTP
What is SSTP?
Standalone Signal Transfer Point
For internal circulation of BSNL only
NEED OF SSTP
SS7 had made a numbers of applications possible e.g. Fast connection setup in PSTN Short Message Service (SMS) Location update
For internal circulation of BSNL only
NEED OF SSTP
SSTP is needed in BSNL network because:SSTP handle the non call related messages efficiently. SSTP became the vantage point in the network because of the signaling protocol was common i.e. SS7
For internal circulation of BSNL only
NEED OF SSTP
The SSTP provided a single routing database by enabling the uniform signaling in SS7 domain. Routing database is able to make the routing decision based on the Destination Point Codes (DPC), Global Title Translation (GTT), Routing Keys etc.

NEED OF SSTP
To measure and know the type of signaling traffic, SSTP was planned and installed so that billing to private operators can be done
accordingly.

OBJECTIVES OF SSTP
Regulate, measure, and account for internetwork traffic including SMS messages from mobile networks including GSM and CDMA. Achieve a flexibility and transparency in
management of signaling for BSNLs wired and wireless networks.
For internal circulation of BSNL only
OBJECTIVES OF SSTP
Optimal expansion of GSM & CDMA network of BSNL. Introduction of New Services. Offer CCS7 & IP Signaling Services to other Wire line & Wireless Network Operators.

OBJECTIVES OF SSTP
BSNL awarded a contract to M/s ITI Ltd. for the supply and installation of 10 SSTP nodes in September, 2005. Project was further expanded to provide 24 nodes in total covering all the major location including all the Level-1 TAX locations.
For internal circulation of BSNL only
SSTP IN BSNL NETWORK
21 TAX Locations with an STP at each location. Pair of SSTPs ([Link]) are designated as mated pair with identical routing data and complete failover capability. Phase 1 - 10 Locations.

SSTP IN BSNL NETWORK
Phase 2 - 11 additional locations: This was later changed to 24 locations to take care of the connectivity issues. 4 Additional locations are Jammu, Shimla, Dimapur, Shillong and dropping Raipur. Phase 3 Expansion of all 24 nodes to about capacity of 1800 Low Speed Link per node.
For internal circulation of BSNL only
SSTP IN BSNL NETWORK
6 STPs are designated as ANSI-ITU MTP gateway (ILD Gateways). Connect multiple SS7 nodes (MSC, L1-TAX, L2TAX, Local Exchanges, SMSC, HLR, SCP) to a mated pair using SS7 E1 links. SSTPs interconnected using BSNLs IP/MPLS network on M2PA

SSTP IN BSNL NETWORK
Later on M3UA functionality is also included to connect the access nodes e.g. Soft switch, GMSC, IN, HLR etc. Centralized Network Management with an Active and DR Standby site. Central Billing Server for billing inter-carrier SS7 usage.
For internal circulation of BSNL only
SSTP IN BSNL NETWORK
The SSTPs shall form primary and secondary signaling path through the designated mated pairs only. The connectivity with private operators
(including MTNL) for signaling traffic to be established either on link basis or with their.
For internal circulation of BSNL only
SSTP IN BSNL NETWORK
In case of emergencies the direct routes between two Level-1 TAXs will carry the signaling traffic. SSTP connectivity of TAXs will be governed by instructions issued by NM branch from time to time.

SELECTION OF SSTP SITES
Preferably where MPLS VPN equipment is already working. Preferably in Telecom building where at least two independent OFC rings are working.
For internal circulation of BSNL only
SELECTION OF SSTP SITES
If, the installation of SSTP equipment is not technically feasible in MPLS-VPN building, then the location where spare STM-1 is available between the MPLS-VPN building site and SSTP equipment building, on two OFC rings working on independent cable paths.

SSTP REQUIRMENT ON MNP
CONNECETIVITY: All BSNL Network elements SMSC, IN, HLRs, MSCs to be connected to the SSTP. In case of circle STP/SGW already existing, these should be directly connected to the SSTPs so that directly or indirectly all the SS7 elements are connected via SSTP.

SSTP REQUIRMENT ON MNP
CONNECETIVITY: All GSM & CDMA MAP traffic to be routed via the SSTP, including SGSN and GGSN. All PSTN traffic to be connected to SSTP via Level-1/Level-2 TAX.
