Study Notes

SSF (Service Switching Function)

Represents the switching functions of the IN network
Detects IN service invocations (ISTs) and interrogates the appropriate SCF for instructions on how to handle the call
Can be located within the (G)MSC Server, in which case it is not a separate physical node in the network
Can also be located in a separate transit exchange (without mobile functionality), in which case it is called a (stand-alone) SSP and can be seen as a separate node in the network

gsmSSF (GSM Service Switching Function)

Represents the switching functions of the CAMEL Service Environment (CSE)
Detects CAMEL calls and interrogates the appropriate gsmSCF for instructions on how to handle the call
Located within the (G)MSC Server and cannot be a separate physical node in the network
