Method for the transmission of SS7 messages, network arrangement and network element

摘要

The method involves receiving a signaling system 7 (SS7)-message and determining a utility channel controlled by the message. A utility channel operation is executed, if the channel is connected to a switching unit (106A). The message is rejected when the message is received from other switching unit (106B) and the message passes through all other switching units. The received message is else transmitted to the other switching unit. An independent claim is also included for network arrangement for handling of SS7-messages in a network, comprising a utility channel group.
