a. When using signaling gateways (such as ASG) there is no need to disrupt the existing SS7 network and future enhancement transparent.

b. No need for further expensive investments in the legacy signaling elements

c. Signaling transport over IP network doesn't demand the physical E1/T1 links. Using new technologies like IP over fiber, for example, can achieve much higher throughput.

d. All of the above.

a. More cost effective (deployment and maintenance)

b. Easier to manage

c. More scalable and flexible

d. All of the above

a. IP, TCP, UDP

b. IP, UDP, SCTP

c. MTP, SCCP, TCAP

d. IP, SCTP, M2PA

a. Limitations

b. Advantaages

a. True

b. False

a. Connection-oriented protocol

b. Connectionless protocol

c. Neither

a. Seamless operation of MTP3 protocol peers over an IP network connection.

b. The MTP2/MTP3 interface boundary, management of SCTP transport associations, and traffic instead of MTP2 Links.

c. Asynchronous reporting of status changes to management.

d. All of the above

a. True

b. False

a. Transport MTP3 data messages

b. Present an MTP2 upper interface to MTP3

c. All of the above

a. ISDN user part (ISUP)

b. Signaling connection control part (SCCP)

c. Telephone user part (TUP)

d. All of the above

a. Transfer of SCCP user part messages (TCAP, RANAP, MAP)

b. SCCP connectionless service

c. SCCP connection-oriented service

d. Transfer of SCCP messages

a. SCCP flavors (to be consistent)

b. Routing aspects

c. Addressing aspects

d. All of the above
