If you're connecting to a carrier's SS7 network, I'm pretty sure you need to be using carrier-lab-approved hardware -- and very probably software -- to do it. Things may have changed since, oh, 5 or 6 years ago when I last paid any close attention to SS7, but last I heard, the ingress ports to that network are not filtered enough for them to let just anyone hook up to them. That said, those links *used* to be V.35 off the terminal equipment; I don't know whether they're using T-spans for them now, but even if they are, I suspect you might need custom *drivers*, not just custom app-level software. But IANASS7E. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
