 ==== Configure SCCP/M3UA to accept _A_ and _IuCS_ links
 
-OsmoMSC will contact an STP instance to establish an SCCP/M3UA link. BSC and
-HNBGW will then reach the MSC via this link. By default, an STP instance is
-assumed to listen on the default M3UA port (2905) on the local host.
+OsmoMSC acts as client to contact an STP instance and establish an SCCP/M3UA
+link.
 
-Establishing an SCCP/M3UA link towards an STP instance not on the local host
-can be configured as follows:
