Following is the current status (updated: Sun Jul 18 22:14:04 CDT 1999) on the OpenSS7 Project.
At the current date (Sun Jul 18 22:12:35 CDT 1999), the project has not yet been kicked off as an open source project. The only code which exists is the baseline code which I originally developed under GPL. The following is a status of the state of the baseline code.
The library is implemented using a single header file to specify a protocol variant. It will not be difficult to include other variants of SS7 including ITU-T, ETSI, and a number of other national variants such as Italy, Portugal, China, Japan, Austrailia, Bellcore, etc. An example of the header file for ANSI 1992 ISUP is provided here.
The library provides a set of classes for encoding and decoding and includes test programs. There are methdos for both encoding and decoding frames and displaying frames using normal protocol analyzer type ASCII display.
State machines for MTP Level 2 (although not needed: it is implemented in the driver) and MTP Level 3 exist for ANSI 1992. These state machines have not yet been integrated with the Level 2 driver; however, they are easily adapted.
The MTP Level 3 state machine requires a wrapper to have it run as a daemon, read configuration files, and open drivers for the ACB56 links.
Release and loading documentation is required for the whole package.
