CCSS7 Message Transfer Part
Richard J. Manterfield · Institution of Engineering and Technology eBooks · 1999
The Message Transfer Part (MTP) consists of Levels 1 to 3 of the 4-level structure adopted for CCSS7. The MTP is responsible for transferring messages between Signalling Points. The objective of the MTP is to transfer messages without loss or duplication and deliver them to the intended destination in an error-free condition and in the sequence in which they were transmitted. The MTP enables a signalling network to meet demanding message transfer requirements, even during fault conditions.
