Yes, you must use the "ss7 debug linkset x" command, where x is the 
number of the linkset you would like to see verbose output on.  I would 
try using the ss7linktest program included in the libss7 directory to 
bring the link up.  It will automatically set the verbosity to maximum, 
and you can see more debug as to what is happening at early link 
initialization if that is a problem.
