[asterisk-ss7] CICS stay in pending state

Hi,
  please check if you have all the timers defined for both linksets more 
specificaly ISUP timers T16 and T17

  The proper functioning of libss7 depends on the timers and they need to 
be defined for _each_ linkset. To avoid mistakes you may configure the 
timers in a separate file (use ss7.timers from the samples) and just 
#include it for each linkset

  I am running libss2 with Asterisk 11 and 13 for several years now 
without any problems and CICs in pending state.
