Abstract

A technique for operating a network node during a Mobile Terminating Roaming Forwarding (MTRF) procedure is described. The MTRF procedure involves a first MSC paging a Mobile Subscriber (MS) and a second MSC where the MS is performing a location update. A method implementation of the technique performed by the first MSC includes receiving an information request message, receiving from the second MSC, a Mobile Subscriber Roaming Number (MSRN) associated with the call to the MS, and sending, in response to the information request message, the MSRN towards a Gateway MSC.
