Hi All, I am new to Asterisk and SS7, I will be exposing the details of my problem here hoping for guidance and/or hints about things that I might missed within my configuration. _Objective : _ - Set up SS7 between two Asterisk Boxes using chan_ss7 using PRI Telephony cards cabled directly with a PRI cable. _Current configuration :_ - Asterisk : 1.4.39.2 - Dahdi : 2.5.0.2 - Kernel : 2.6.30.10 - chan_ss7 : 2.1.0 - 2 Machines : Machine1 (ipbrick144 | 172.31.3.144) + Machine2 (ipbrick145 | 172.31.3.145) - chan_dahdi unloaded, chan_ss7 loaded The chan_ss7 loads without problem, but i am not able to have an ALIGNED Link in both machines. # rasterisk -x "ss7 link status" linkset:siuc, link:l2/16, state:NOT_ALIGNED, sls:1, total: 1857882016/1857882048 CLI> ss7 linestat Linkset: siuc CIC 1 Idle Reset pending CIC 2 Idle Reset pending CIC 3 Idle Reset pending CIC 4 Idle Reset pending CIC 5 Idle Reset pending CIC 6 Idle Reset pending CIC 7 Idle Reset pending CIC 8 Idle Reset pending CIC 9 Idle Reset pending CIC 10 Idle Reset pending CIC 11 Idle Reset pending CIC 12 Idle Reset pending CIC 13 Idle Reset pending CIC 14 Idle Reset pending CIC 15 Idle Reset pending CIC 17 Idle Reset pending CIC 18 Idle Reset pending CIC 19 Idle Reset pending CIC 20 Idle Reset pending CIC 21 Idle Reset pending CIC 22 Idle Reset pending CIC 23 Idle Reset pending CIC 24 Idle Reset pending CIC 25 Idle Reset pending CIC 26 Idle Reset pending CIC 27 Idle Reset pending CIC 28 Idle Reset pending CIC 29 Idle Reset pending CIC 30 Idle Reset pending CIC 31 Idle Reset pending - Within the logs, i have the next message : WARNING[13581] mtp.c: MTP2 timer T2 timeout (failed to receive 'O', 'N', or 'E' after sending 'O'), initial alignment failed on link 'l2'. - Within the console, i have the next messages when i manually load chan_ss7 : ] NOTICE[23391]: config.c:805 load_config_link: Configured link 'l1' on linkset 'siuc', firstcic=1 [Mar 15 16:49:38] NOTICE[23391]: config.c:1278 load_config: Configuring OPC 1, DPC 2 for linkset 'siuc'. -- Starting cluster thread, pid=23209. == Registered channel type 'SS7' (SS7 Protocol Driver) -- Starting continuity check thread, pid=23209.
