Abstract: The subject matter disclosed herein includes methods, systems, and computer program products for selecting among different global title translation modes based on a message originator and performing global title translation based on the selected mode. According to one method, a global title translation mode is selected based on a message originator. A global title translation lookup is performed in accordance with the selected mode. If the global title translation according to the selected mode fails, a lookup may be performed according to at least one additional mode in a global title translation mode hierarchy.

Abstract: The subject matter described herein includes methods, systems, and computer program products for point code proxying. According to one method, a direct linkset interconnection between first and second signaling points is migrated to an interconnection including signaling message routing node. At the signaling message routing node, a point code of the second signaling point is proxied for link alignment with the first signaling point. Messages received from the first signaling point that are addressed to the point code of the second signaling point are routed to the second signaling point.
