SoftSwitch(SSW) processes various types of calls and supplementary services based on the IP. SSW provides same services as the existing circuit-based switch and also accommodates next-generation IP-based protocols to provide more services. SSW provides both voice service and multimedia services. SSW controls SG and MG/TG to provide various services and interworks with various types of external networks.
SG
- SG stands for signaling gateway. SG enables IP-based SSW to interwork with existing SS7 network. SG interworks with SSW through SIGTRAN, and supports various forms of interworking including M2UA, M3UA, and SUA.
MG/TG
- MG/TG stands for media gateway and trunk gateway respectively. MG/TG provides E1 interface for TDM-type interworking with voice network as well as ATM, PRI, and other interfaces, if necessary. SSW controls MG/TG through Megaco/H.248.
