Final Charter for Working Group

The goals of the BOF will be as follows:

  • Identify SS7 functions and related applications that potentially
    interact with IP networks, for example:
      - SS7 interface to control a Network Access
        Server
      - access to SS7 services/information

  • Discuss an initial architectural framework for these functions

  • Identify areas where new specifications or IETF activity is needed
    for areas such as, for example:
      - protocol between SS7 gateway and NAS
      - transport of signaling over IP
      - other

  • Depending on the level of interest, decide to form a working group
    or continue discussions for the future.  If a working group is
    formed, agree on scope and mandate.
