network reliability.
But why is SS7 network security and reliability so important? An
SS7 network outage results in a breakdown of the signalling
between the individual nodes of the network, so that the services
of the telecommunication network are no longer available for
customers. Apart from the tremendous financial damage to the
network operator, the social consequences of such a network
breakdown cannot be underestimated.

It is shown that the problems can be avoided by suitable network
planning, i.e., by assuring bidirectionality, loop-freeness, and
sufficient node disjoint routes, or the introduction of new
transmission and switching technologies based on ATM and IP
networks.

The book is written for non-SS7 experts and tries to provide more
detailed background knowledge about the SS7 network protocols,
the problems, and their solution during the specification work.
