If I am only terminating traffic to my carrier and he is not sending?me any, do I still need a pointcode for myself or can I set things up with the his pointcode and the default point code as traffic is only going in his direction ?

I am trying to obtain these infos from my carrier but he is only giving a single point code.

Sometimes. It depends on what you negotiate with the telco you're interconnecting with. Some of them like to waste an E1 on a single signalling link though. And even stupider ones waste a single E1 on two signalling links. It seems ridiculous to mandate redundant signalling links and have them running over the same E1 (Don't ask, I had somebody come to me having to deal with that). But in any case, you can negotiate with them how you would like to set it up typically. Do i have to just plug in those 4 E1s directly into the TE420P and install libss7 ? thats it ? Yes :-) And configure it. Also please tell me what are the advantages of ss7 over PRI in terms of 1.call handling capacity 2. connectivity 3. reliability .. If you need answers to that question, you probably need to research more into what SS7 is. Typically, you have a more reliable link since you can have redundant signalling channels. The protocol also supports a lot more bearers per signalling link than you can do in PRI (or even NFAS PRI).
