Abstract
A method for relaying an ORREQ (origination request) message from an MSC (mobile switching center) to a service specific SCP (service control point) using an HLR (home location register) first receives the ORREQ message including a service trigger indication at the HLR. A service trigger and an identifier for the subscriber are determined from the service trigger indication within the ORREQ message. A subscriber profile within the HLR is accessed responsive to the determined identifier to identify active services for the subscriber. The service specific SCP to provide the particular service associated with the service trigger of a plurality of available service specific SCPs is determined responsive to the service trigger and the active services for the subscriber. An address of the specific SCP is determined by accessing mapping logic and the ORREQ message is transmitted from the HLR to the determined service specific SCP.
