NAME

ISDN - OpenSS7 ISDN Devices

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/stream.h>

int isdn_stream = open(isdn_device, flags);
int retval = ioctl(isdn_stream, I_PUSH, isdn_module);

DESCRIPTION


The ISDN related collection of drivers and modules provide ISDN[1, 2] capabilities in a number of related forms, including H.323, V5.2, GR-303 and GSM variants.

DRIVERS

ISDN provides the following STREAMS pseudo-device drivers:

isdn(4)
Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Q.931/932 Network Layer protocol layer[3, 4] that provides a Call Control Interface, cci(7), for ISDN operation, cci_isdn(7), and a Local Management Interface, lmi_ioctl(4), for ISDN management, isdn_ioctl(4).
capi(4)
Common ISDN Application Programming Interface (CAPI)[5] protocol layer that provides the Call Control Interace, cci(7), for ISDN operation, cci_isdn(7), for CAPI devices installed and registered on the local system, and a Local Management Interface, lmi_ioctl(4), for CAPI management, capi_ioctl(4).
v5(4)
V5.2 protocol layer that provides the Call Control Interface, cci(7), for V5.2 operation, v5_ioctl(4).
gr303(4)
GR-303-CORE protocol layer that provides the Call Control Interface, cci(7), for GR-303-CORE operation, cci_gr303(7), and a Local Management Interface, lmi_ioctl(4), for GR-303-CORE management, gr303_ioctl(4).
dl(4)
Q.921 (LAPD), Q.922 (LAPF), X.25 (LAPB) \fR[6..8] Data Link Provider Interface, dlpi(7), for LAPD, LAPF and LAPB, dlpi_lapd(7), dlpi_lapf(7), dlpi_lapb(7), and a Local Management Interface, lmi_ioctl(4), for DL management, dl_ioctl(4).

MODULES

ISDN provides the following pushable STREAMS modules:

hdlc(4)
ISO 3309/4335 High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) Communications Device Interface, cdi(7), module, that can be pushed over a stream that conforms to the Channel Interface (CHI), chi(7).

DEVICES

ISDN provides the following STREAMS device drivers:

x400p(4)
T400P-SS7 and E400P-SS7 4-span T1/E1 card driver that provides a Channel Interface, chi(7), and Multiplex Interface, mxi(7). The hdlc(4), module cam be pushed over the chi(7) device and linked under the dl(4) driver to form a complete ISDN Q.921 data link. The mxi(7) device can be used to switch bearer channels, see mx(4).
x100p(4)
T100P-SS7 and E100P-SS7 1-span T1/E1 card driver that provides a Channel Interface, chi(7), and Multiplex Interface, mxi(7). The hdlc(4), module cam be pushed over the chi(7) device and linked under the dl(4) driver to form a complete ISDN Q.921 data link. The mxi(7) device can be used to switch bearer channels, see mx(4).
