GSM MAP Server

The GSM MAP Server is the GSM G/IW gateway of the SMSC. It processes the MAP signaling of the SMSC, converts the MAP signaling into the message of internal format, and then forwards it to SMCAPP.

The GSM MAP Server connects with the MTI Server as the client, processing the MAP signaling. Meanwhile, the GSM MAP Server connects with the SMCAPP as the server, implementing the conversion between the MAP signaling and the message of internal format.

Features of the GSM MAP Server

Serial No.	Function
1	Supporting multiple-module processing
2	Supporting Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 2+ SM signaling
3	Supporting the identification of MAP session version in the GSM network
4	Implementing the signaling flow of submitting SMs from GSM MSs, and transferring the submitted SMs to the SMCAPP
5	Implementing the signaling flow of delivering SMs from the GSM SMSC, and returning the delivery results to the SMCAPP
6	Implementing the ALERT_SC signaling flow from the HLR to the SMSC, and sending the corresponding information to the SMCAPP
7	Supporting the function of sending multiple SMs to improve the network efficiency
8	Version number of MAP signaling being configurable
9	Monitoring the running status of the system
10	Monitoring resources of the MAP Server
11	Providing the function of querying the location of an MS
12	Monitoring the message exchange between the MAP Server and SMSC, MTI Server and MAP Server
13	Supporting 2 Mbit/s signaling link
14	Supporting SIGTRAN signaling
15	Signaling the feature of multiple signaling points
16	Supporting obtaining delivery routes from different HLRs according to different number segments
17	Receiving SRI messages and Forward MT messages by simulating HLR and MSC
18	Supporting SM interception
19	Supporting networking of multiple MAP Servers, and message distribution by percentage, by calling number segment, and by the ending digits of the called number
20	Supporting testing the normal running of the SMSC in the networking of multiple MAP Servers
21	Supporting MSC-located time zones
