This message is used to convey Message Signal Units from the user part to the
Message Transfer Part (MTP) on the board for subsequent transmission into
the SS7 Network.
The user part should only issue messages to destination point codes for which
an MTP Resume indication has been received, otherwise no route is currently
available to the destination and the message will be discarded by the Message
Transfer Part in accordance with Q.704.
No confirmation messages are issued.
