Optional Value-Added Services
Mobile Number Portability
With the mobile number portability (MNP) function, a user can
move among the networks without changing MSISDN
The SG7000 can be used as the SRF equipment to provide
STP-based MNP function
The SG7000 supports up to 25 million users

Optional Value-Added Services (Cont.)
Flexible Number Routing
With the flexible number routing (FNR) function, operators can
flexibly allocate MSISDNs for users without worrying about the
mapping between the MSISDNs and the IMSIs in the HLR.
The SG7000 realizes the FNR function by using the SRF
solution
The SG7000 supports up to 25 million users

Optional Value-Added Services (Cont.)
Signaling Firewall
The SG7000 analyzes the crucial information in the message
and compares it with the screening rule provided by the user to
decide whether to transfer or discard the message.
Screening is used to ensure the security and reliability of the
network. Therefore, it is also called "signaling firewall".
