Link-by-Link Signaling

Link-by-link Signaling is a signaling scheme, in which signaling messages are transmitted "one link at a time" in a multi-link connection. The network performs processing at each intermediate switching point for subsequent transmission. In the SS7 system, Link-by-link Signaling is the procedure used to exchange signaling messages between two Signaling Points (SPs) that are either directly connected to each other, or are connected via STPs (Signaling Transfer Point).
