Looking at l4isup.c and the dump, I'm just wondering, is it correct behaviour to have an empty optionals section? e.g. code like the following in isup_send_rlc(): isup_msg_start_optional_part(msg, sizeof(msg), &varptr, ¤t); isup_msg_end_optional_part(msg, sizeof(msg), ¤t); Should this not just be stripped out? Similar code exists in isup_send_rel(), except that optionals are added in the event of certain if() conditions being matched. Again, the question I have is should the isup_msg_start_optional_part and isup_msg_end_optional_part functions even be called if the conditions are such that no optionals need to be added? --Greg On 2011/11/21 01:36 PM, Gregory Massel wrote: > I have the exact same condition with chan_ss7 on Asterisk 1.4 and > Asterisk 1.8 and can confirm that I've run all versions of chan_ss7 > from 1.3 up to 2.1.0 (2.1.0 on Asterisk 1.8 and the previous versions > on Asterisk 1.4). > > The remote end is, to the best of my knowledge, a Siemens EWSD. > > The following feedback was provided by the remote carrier and may > prove useful in explaining the problem: > > SWTNRB 26 1-26 TRUNK BW 0-24 2-26 IDLE > > SWTNRB 27 1-27 TRUNK BW 0-24 2-27 INC & > > FRCD & > > IALM > > SWTNRB 28 1-28 TRUNK BW 0-24 2-28 IDLE > > SWTNRB 29 1-29 TRUNK BW 0-24 2-29 INC & > > FRCD & > > IALM > > SWTNRB 30 1-30 TRUNK BW 0-24 2-30 IDLE > > With the IALM condition is caused by "end of optional parameter in the > wrong place". > > If you should see in the attachment I have highlighted the REL and RLC > message from your nodes. > > Both of these have the optional parameter "indicated". > > If it is possible can you please set optional parameters OFF ( > parameter indicator =0) for > > These two messages. > > If you can let me know so that we can reset the circuits as we have > done previously. > > > They also provided the following: > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Octet001 ITU-T SS7 Count=000001 Time=08/22/2011 13:21:14:023 > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > 10010010 BIB/BSN (146) 1/18 > > 11111001 FIB/FSN (249) 1/121 > > ..001110 SU type/length (14) MSU14 > > 00......
