# Creating an MTP3 Route

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

[MTP3](https://github.com/telcobridges-main/tmedia-wiki/tree/main/reference/protocols/mtp3/README.md) routes are designed to route traffic from previously created point codes using linksets.

You require one route for each point code in your system. This means one route per DPC (SSP and STP) and one route per source point code (OPC).

To create an MTP3 route:

1- Click **MTP3** in the navigation panel.

![Mtp3 0 A](https://docs.telcobridges.com/w/images/9/9b/Mtp3_0_A.png)

2- Select an MTP3 network.

3- Click **Create New Mtp3 Route** in the MTP3 network configuration window:

![Create MTP3 Route 0](https://docs.telcobridges.com/w/images/2/28/Create_MTP3_Route_0.png)

4- Configure the new MTP3 route:

* Enter a **name** for the route
* Select a **point code** for the route
* Select a **point type**
* Click **Create**

![Create MTP3 Route 1](https://docs.telcobridges.com/w/images/a/aa/Create_MTP3_Route_1.png)

**Note**

* Check the **Route to Adjacent** box, if this route is directed to an adjacent network ![Create MTP3 Route 1a](https://docs.telcobridges.com/w/images/2/2a/Create_MTP3_Route_1a.png)

5- Verify that the **"Mtp3Route was successfully created"** message appears

![Create MTP3 Route 2](https://docs.telcobridges.com/w/images/6/6b/Create_MTP3_Route_2.png)

6- Associate the newly created route with a linkset:

* Select a linkset from the list of **Available** linksets
* Click the **"<<"** button to associate the linkset with the newly created route

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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-mtp3-route.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.
