Hi Ross,
Unless you have an SS7 trunk to an ILEC you don't need to worry
much about the Point Code. For SIP traffic you just dip the call
and route on the LRN.
The Point Code itself is a special format that is assigned to you
when you set up
I'll try to make this as short and sweet as possible even though it's

I'm trying to understand how routing works in SS7-land. I am familiar with
portability, and I know (at least in the US) the first step in routing a call
