Originating Point Code The originating point code for the CAMEL Gateway.

create_config.info question: Camel Gateway Link 1:What is the originating point-code?

404
Destination Point Code The destination point code for Network Enabler. Defaults to '.'

create_config.info question: Camel Gateway Link 1:What is the destination point-code?

.
SCCP SCMG Message Route Set to y to enable CAMEL Gateway to use this signaling link to route Signaling Connection Control Part (SCCP) management (SCMG) messages through the SCCP protocol.

create_config.info question: Camel Gateway Link 1:Do you want SCCP SCMG messages sent on this route (y/n)?

Accept the default (n)
SCCP Segment Size The maximum size of segments sent in messages. Specify a value in the range 0 to 3952. Enter:
