Continuity tests are used to make sure that the SS7 ISUP interface circuit groups (CIC) are aligned with the physical links (E1/T1) properly. Toolpack version 2.7 allows users of the TMG to do ISUP Continuity Testing via 3 methods by CIC Group or individual CIC:

Incoming Continuity testing outside a call

This circuit testing occurs when one of the nodes wants to validate a currently idle circuit. It is recommended that the switch first blocks the circuit to prevent calls to use the circuit during the testing.

For ITU:

Peer SP                                        TMG
IAM            - - - - - - - - - - ->

REL            - - - - - - - - - - ->
               < -- - - - - - - - - -          RLC

For ANSI:

Peer SP                                        TMG
CCR            - - - - - - - - - - ->

Incoming Continuity testing within a call

This circuit testing occurs when the forward side (originating side) sets the ‘continuity test required’ field of the ‘nature of connection indicators’ IE into the IAM message.
