Richard J. Manterfield · Institution of Engineering and Technology eBooks · 1999
The Signalling Connection Control Part (SCCP) defines the functions, additional to the MTP, to meet the Layer 3/4 boundary requirements of the OSI 7-Layer Model. Thus, the combination of the MTP and SCCP provides a Network Service for higher layers. The SCCP is used in non-circuit-related applications.
