ABSTRACT:
A system and method for deploying Local Number Portability (LNP) data including ported telephone numbers in a telecommunications network having a Number Portability Administration Center (NPAC) which stores a national database of LNP data. The system includes a plurality of primary network elements which store assigned subsets of the national LNP database, and a backup network element which backs up the plurality of primary network elements and stores the national LNP database. The system also includes a Local Service Management System (LSMS) which interfaces with the NPAC and transmits the national LNP database to the backup network element, divides the national LNP database into the subsets, and transmits the subsets to the plurality of network elements. The LSMS determines whether the LNP data includes a range of sequential telephone numbers, and if so, routes in a single message the range of sequential telephone numbers from the LSMS to the primary network element to which the range is assigned. The LSMS also routes the range of sequential telephone numbers from the LSMS to the backup network element in a single message.
