communication across the network to all wireless service nodes. ALR for HLRs supports a significantly better usage of HLR capacity and allows a separation of the mobile identification number (MIN) from the mobile directory number (MDN). In addition, with ALR for SMSCs and ALR for VMSs, the Alcatel 5070 SSG ANSI can provide Flexible Routing to SMSCs and voice mail/unified messaging systems, respectively. This enables new services on dedicated nodes for a particular group of subscribers.

ALR routing uses a specialized database, coupled with software to decode fields in the SCCP and

TCAP portions of the signaling message, to identify the subscriber and translate the network address of the node handling a subscriber’s service, such as the HLR. ALR routing enables the Alcatel 5070 SSG ANSI to respond to queries for updating subscriber location, sending routing information or forwarding short messages. The ALR implementation supports IS-41 as well

as GSM-based networks.

An interface to external provisioning systems handles transactions for activating subscriber records and establishing HLR, SMSC and other subscriber routing information.
