CISCO-ITP-DSMR-MIB

        The MIB for providing information about Distributed Short
Message Routing for Short Message Service Center.  This 
MIB will provide information used to control and measure 
SS7 messages signalling units in a SS7 Network. Message
Signalling Units are routed based on information found
in the SCCP, TCAP, MAP, and MAP-user layers.  It uses
information from these layers to make customizable 
routing decision based on the following criteria.
        
- message A-address (origination SME)
- message B-address (destination SME)
- protocol identifier 
- operation code
- called party address
- calling party address
        
The Cisco IP Transfer Point (ITP) is a hardware 
and software solution that transports SS7 traffic 
using IP.  Each ITP node provides function similar
to SS7 signalling point.   
        
The Distributed Short Message Routing will be developed in 
compliance to the following standards.
        
- GSM MAP v1, v2 and v3  MO SMS formats
- GSM MAP SMS user information for MO messages
- IS-41 MAP Mobile Originated SMS formats for 
  Revisions A thru D.
