# Creating an ISUP Network

> **Applies to:** Tmedia 3.0, 3.2, 3.3

After you create an ISUP stack, you must create a ISUP network.

The ISUP network communicates with the ISUP protocol layer about the collection of SS7 nodes that are accessible through MTP3 or M3UA. Based on your system configuration, you must create one or more ISUP networks. Repeat this procedure for as many networks as you require.

**NOTE:** An ISUP network can be used by multiple ISUP interfaces even if they are members of different ISUP userpart; for example, to support multiple switch variants for a single SS7 network.

To create an ISUP network:

1- Click **ISUP** in the navigation panel.

2- Select the ISUP stack

3- Click "Create New ISUP Network" in the ISUP stack configuration window

4- Configure the new ISUP network:

* Enter a **name** for the network
* Select **MTP3** or **M3UA** as the **type of network to bind**
* Select a **MTP3 network** or a **M3UA network**
* Click **Create**

5- Verify that the **"IsupNetwork was successfully created"** message is displayed.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://prosbcdocs.telcobridges.com/tmedia-documentation/configuration/creating-an-isup-network.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
