Hi all: I have a questions,? the strategic plain of Asterisk-SS7 not considered evolution to sigtran? Remenber sigtran is a very cost effcient evolution of traditional links SS7, more and more telco's STP today handle sigtran signaling, and I think is more cheap cards ethernet than cards E1's.

The defaultdpc is like the default route. So if your telco has STPs between you and the entity that you are supposed to be sending your ISUP traffic to (basically an additional hop), you set the defaultdpc to the node that your ISUP traffic should go to. If there are no STPs (or additional hops) between you and the point code that you are sending your traffic to, you should just set the adjpointcode and the defaultdpc to be the same thing.
