ABSTRACT:
The present invention reduces network operator memory requirements, administrative overhead, and operational costs by enabling a solution for SS7/IP communication that uses a single domain (e164.arpa) in ENUM for numbering schemes such as E.164, E.212, and E.214. Employing the present invention enables the SUA to deliver SCCP-user messages to the destination node using Global Title Information based on IMSI or E.164 numbers. Network operators populate ENUM databases with MAP URIs associated with mobility services such as MSC, HLR, and VLR. End point service node IP addresses, associated with a set of services, are stored in ENUM corresponding to the SAPC belonging to the local operator for a given PLMN. These end node IP addresses then are returned in the ENUM/DNS response to an E.164-based query.
