There are two separate SCCP drivers for Asterisk.  There is chan_sccp 
and chan_skinny.

chan_skinny ships with the Asterisk source tree, but only includes basic 
support for the normal telephone operations (ie no class 5 support)

chan_sccp is a third party driver that has implemented more of the SCCP 
protocol and has more support for a few class 5 features (hold, 
transfer, etc)
