SIGTRAN Protocol Analyzer network architecture

Overview

SIGTRAN protocol decoder software is a VoIP testing tool that permits real-time analysis, call trace, capture, and filtering of SS7 and ISDN signaling messages over IP. SIGTRAN uses a new connection oriented transport protocol called Stream Control Transport Protocol (SCTP). SCTP is at the same level but more efficient at transport than TCP, UDP, or RTP.

Analyzer supports SCTP, M2UA, M3UA, M2PA, SUA, IUA, SIGTRAN protocols. SIGTRAN is a stack of networking protocols having Stream Control Transport Protocol (SCTP) and a bunch of user adaptation (UA) layers over it.

GL's SIGTRAN Protocol Analyzer (PKV105) is available as an optional module within PacketScan™ analyzer (PKV100) or PacketScan™ HD analyzer (PKV120/PKV122) upon additional licensing . GL's SIGTRAN Analyzer over IP offers powerful features to capture, monitor, decode, and collect statistics of SCTP, and user adaptation (UA) layers such as M2UA, M3UA, M2PA, SUA, IUA, ISUP, MAP, CAP, and INAP. The analyzer permits real-time analysis, call trace, capture, and filtering of SS7 and ISDN signaling messages over IP.

GL’s SS7 and SIGTRAN Analyzer simultaneously can permit testing and verification of Signaling Gateways.
