Office Data

Before configuring service data, you need to set the local office

information, that is to set the properties of the local MSC

Server, including:

office type;

signaling point (SP) code of the local office;

signaling network to which the office belongs;

whether the office is a signaling transfer point (STP);

whether the office supports signaling connection control

part (SCCP)


SS7 Network Identifier

Network identifier:

Four types of SS7 signaling network identifier: international

network, international reserved network, national network, national

reserved network

− MSOFTX3000 supports that the local office exists in four

networks at the same time, but usually no more than two.

Before configuration confirm which network SS7 signaling network

belongs to.


Signaling Point Code

SPC uniquely identifies a node in the signaling network.

The length of SPC in international reserved network and national

network in China is 24 bits.

The length of SPC in international network and national reserved

network is 14 bits.

SP in two networks at the same time has two SPCs.


MSC Number and VLR Number

Currently, MSC and VLR are configured together in the network.

Therefore, MSC number is the same as VLR number.

MSC/VLR number adopts E.164 coding mode, and the coding

format is:

CC+NDC+LSP

In this format, CC is country code and NDC is national

destination code, and LSP is the number used in SS7 signaling

messages to stand for MSC.


MSRN and HON

MSRN is used to route the call to the MSC which MS is currently locat

ed. HON is used by the MSC-A to set up a connection to the MSC-B.

So, MSRN/HON is a temporary number.

The format of MSRN/HON adopts E.164 coding mode, and the coding

format is:

CC+NDC+ individual number.

Usually, the format of MSRN/HON is based on MSC number and

another several digits are added.


Summary

This chapter introduces several basic

concepts related to local office data

configuration.

Local Office Data Configuration

Adding local office information

Command: SET OFI/ADD OFI

−MSOFTX3000 support 16 local office information tables( number

ed 0～ 15).

−The local office data index added for the first time is "0". SET OF

I is used for the first time to add local office data.

−Currently, MSOFTX3000 supports multi-SP configuration at the l

ocal office, so we could use the command ADD OFI to add SPs t

o break the number limitation of 16 signaling links.



Setting local mobile network information

Command: SET INOFFMSC/ADD INOFFMSC

− One MSOFTX3000 can be configured with 16 MSCs in

maximum, and each MSC has its own local office

information.

− Use the command SET INOFFMSC to configure the first

MSC and ADD INOFFMSC to configure the other MSCs.



Adding local VLR information

Command: ADD VLRCFG

− Maximum number of users is used to set the maximum

user number allowed by each VLR module.

− MSRN release timeout refers to the roaming number

auto-release time.

− Roaming number can be allocated according to MSC

number, LAI number, or randomly.



Adding MAP information

Command: ADD MAPACCFG

− ODB_SS is operator determined barring supplementary

services.

− Prepaging means that VLR starts paging immediately after

receiving the message PRN, and then it returns “PRN_ACK”

to HLR after receiving “PAGING RESPONSE”.



Adding Local SCCP Subsystem

Command: ADD SCCPSSN

− SCCP manages the users of OMAP, MAP, HLR, VLR and such

users through TCAP, all these users are called SCCP subsystem.

− Adding SCCPSSN increases the users of MTP messages,

enlarges the addressing area.

− When MSOFTX3000 functions as a visited MSC, configure the

local MSC, VLR and SCMG subsystem.

− When MSOFTX3000 functions as a gateway mobile switching

center (GMSC), configure the local MSC and SCMG subsystems.



Adding local GT information

Command: ADD SCCPGT

− GT is short for global title, and is used globally. It implements the

circuit independent message transmission between random SP.

− Adding SCCPGT is used to address globally through GT

information.

− Set [Translation type] as default value “00” for the mobile network

and set [GT indicator] as GT4.

− For the local user of SCCP, set [Translation result type] as “SPC”.


Questions

Which commands does local office configuration include?

How many SS7 signaling links can MSOFTX3000 support when connecting to a SP?

Which SCCP subsystems should be added in local office data configuration of VMSC?

MSRN/HON Allocation Mode Configuration

MSOFTX3000 can flexibly implement the following MSRN/HON

allocation modes:

Allocating MSRN/HON based on LAI number

Allocating MSRN/HON based on MSC number

Allocating MSRN/HON randomly

MSRN/HON allocation mode configuration comprises prefix

configuration and suffix configuration.

2. Add MSRN prefix ADD MHPREFIX

3. Add MSRN suffix ADD MHSUFFIX

4. Add corresponding relationship between

MSC and MSRN (optional)ADD MHMSCCFG

5. Add corresponding relationship between

LAI and MSRN (optional)ADD MHLAICFG

The dotted line indicates that whether the subsequent command used is ADD

MHLAICFG or ADD MHMSCCFG.



Adding MSRN/HON Prefix

Command: ADD MHPREFIX

− Before this command, configure ADD NACODE first.

− The MSRN/HON prefix includes country code and network

access code



Adding MSRN/HON Suffix

Command: MHSUFFIX

− The MSRN/HON prefix could correspond to different suffixes,

but the number of suffixes couldn’t overlap.

− MSRN/HON number type could be MSRN, HON or

MSRN/HON.



Adding corresponding relationship between LAI and MSRN

Command: ADD MHLAICFG

− Optional command, only used when allocating MSRN/HON based

on LAI number.

− Before configuration, use command ADD LAIGCI/ADD LAISAI to

add location area.

− By using index of MSRN/HON prefix and LAI number to establish

the relationship between MSRN and LAI.



Adding corresponding relationship between MSC and

MSRN

Command: ADD MHMSCCFG

− Optional command, only used when allocating MSRN/HON

based on MSC number.

− MSC number should be defined in ADD INOFFMSC.

− By using index of MSRN/HON prefix and LAI number to

establish the relationship between MSRN and MSC.
