It is a common practice in the SS7 network: one that we intended the
specifications to support.

There are two (maybe three) common interconnect arrangements in the SS7
network: F-link, A-link and B/D-link.  F-link interconnect is handled by
IPSP and SG/ASP backhaul.  A-link and B/D-link require multiple SG as
STP arrangement.  A transit network (not just an access network) would
also require an SG-SG arrangement for M3UA (or IPSP with relay).  SUA
already handles transit networks with SUA relay and does not require an
SG-SG protocol.
