Signalling Route - Chain of signalling link sets and signalling transfer points which can be used as a path by the signalling point when routing a message towards a specific signalling point Signalling Route Set - Combination of all permitted signalling routes that may be used to pass signalling messages from a signalling point to a specific destination Each Signalling Route Set are associated with a Signalling Route Set Parameter set that defines its own signalling function. In general, the predefined parameters are the most suitable ones to be used. ZNRC

GT Analysis
SCCP
The SCCP layer can use a Signalling Point Code (SPC) as the destination SCCP address even when the functional application and the MAP layer uses a GT That there must be a route set on the MTP level to all Signalling Points (SP) known by the SCCP. Applications that use SCCP services are defined as subsystems which are identified by a Subsystem Number (SSN).
SCCP
The subsystems can be SCCP management (SCMG), MSC MAP, VLR MAP, HLR MAP, INAP, OMAP, and possibly some networkspecific subsystems, like Base Station System Application Part (BSSAP). ZNFD

Circuits - Transmission channels permitting bidirectional transmission of signals between two points, to support a single communication. Circuit Group - Group of circuits that have the same purpose and are traffic-engineered as a unit.
External circuit groups are created to connect circuits between two exchanges. These circuits are used for carrying speech or data between these network elements. The circuit group identifies the direction and register signalling.

H.248
H.248 or MEGACO is the interface between MSS and MGW to control user - plane resources. This interface is implemented by establishing control connection between signalling unit (CCSU / SIGU) in MSS to signalling unit (ISU) in MGW.
H.248
In MSS, this is implemented by creating MGW and in MGW it is implemented by creating virtual MGW. User plane resources for MSC server can be created only after H.248 interface is created between MSS and virtual MGW.
H.248
To configure H.248 control interface for MSC Server 1. Add new MGW - Select the signalling unit at MSS side, which communicates with the MGW. 2. Configure MGW a. Add MGW to MSS's MGW database. b. Select the signalling unit in MSS side, which communicates with the MGW. c. Configure H.248 specific data. d. Configure E.164 address of the MGW. e. Configure each virtual MGW 's domain name and IP address. f. Configure peer MSS's IP addresses and domain names of each virtual MGW. 3. Register MGW a. Check that registration is enabled from the MGW at MSS side. b. Activate registration process in the MGW.

To analyse the nature of the dialled digits and change it to the characteristics of number. Identify local calls (add local area code). Recognise a certain dialling pattern (prefix) from the MS in order to proceed routing based on calling line identity (CLI).

Routing attribute analysis Tree to be used for different calls depending on the attributes associated with them. Intermediate announcement to calling (or redirecting) subscriber with a Chargeable / free announcement indication.
Routing attribute analyses are made before the CM digit analysis at points where the called or redirected number is brought to the digit analysis They are not made for roaming or handover numbers and after number modification has been done. The default result is that the analysis does not change the digit analysis tree and There is no announcement for the subscriber

Destination
End Of Analysis Examines the clear code, after which the call may be disconnected, reanalysed, or lead to an alternative destination, depending on the incoming signalling and the given control codes.
It is used when the call attempt fails before the conversation state is achieved. The EOS analysis contains the control information for giving the right response to each individual clear code. ZRXI:RESGR=0;

SPRs
SPR - SPR instructs the exchange to retain the call in the MSC because some other actions need to be done to the call before it can be routed out
SPRs
The SPRs used are: HLRENQ SPR GSMEND SPR SPR with inter-MSC handover Number modification SPR Announcement SPR SPR with data call; the call must pass through the modem pool before being routed out of the exchange SPR with an IN call
SPR - HLRENQ
During every MTC, an HLRENQ must be performed to find out the MSC where the subscriber is located at the moment.
SPR - HLRENQ
Signalling messages from the MSC to the HLR can be routed using the two main principles: routing on label routing on Global Title (SCCP routing).
SPR - HLRENQ
HLRENQ routed on label The definition for the SPR HLRENQ must contain the signalling point code from the HLR HLRENQ routed on Global Title It is the most flexible and elegant way of routing HLRENQs to the HLRs. Only one SPR for HLRENQ,
