This call flow covers the handling of a CS network
originated call with ISUP. In the diagram the MGCF
requests seizure of the IM CN subsystem side
termination and CS network side bearer termination.
When the MGCF receives an answer indication, it
requests the IM-MGW to both-way through-connect the
terminations. Originating and terminating end initiated
call releases are also covered.
This call flow describes the call setup from an IMS
subscriber to ISUP PSTN termination. The call is routed
via the BGCF (Border Gateway Control Function) to the
MGCF (Media Gateway Control Function). The MGCF
uses one context with two terminations in IM-MGW
(Media Gateway). The termination RTP1 is used
towards IMS Core network subsystem entity and the
bearer termination TDM1 is used for bearer towards
PSTN CS netwrok element.
The latest EventStudio patch improves compatibility
with Windows Vista. The scenario project templates and
sample documents are now installed in the “My
Documents” folder.
IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) provides a framework
and building blocks for building advanced telecom
services. One such service is network wide publication
and subscription of presence information. Users can
subscribe to presence information for their contacts. If
the contact accepts their request, the subscriber will be
registered for presence notification. Whenever the
friend publishes presence information, the IMS
presence framework will notify the subscribed users.
IMS presence information communication can put a lot
of load on the network. One way to reduce this load is
to predefine the list of friends and family. When you
subscribe to the "friends and family" list, a Resource
List Server (RLS) in the IMS subscribes to the individual
subscribers (presentities) on your behalf. Once the RLS
completes the registrations, it collates the individual
presence status into a single NOTIFY message.
