This document proposes the interfaces of a Signaling Gateway, which
provides interworking between the Switched Circuit Network (SCN) and
an IP network.  Since the Gateway is the central point of signaling
information, not only does it provide transportation of signaling
from one network to another, but it can also provide additional
functions such as protocol translation, security screening, routing
information, and seamless access to Intelligent Network (IN) services
on both networks.
 
The Transport Adapter Layer Interface (TALI) is the proposed
interface, which provides TCAP (Transaction Capability Application
Part), ISUP (ISDN User Part), and MTP (Mail Transport Protocol)
messaging over TCP/IP.  In addition, TALI provides SCCP (Signalling
Connection Control Part) Management (SCMG), MTP Primitives, dynamic
registration of circuits, and routing of call control messages based
on circuit location.
