This course provides the student with a understanding of the configuration and operation of the OpenCall Home Location Register. Students gain an understanding of infrastructure components of the HLR application package unrelated to specific ANSI-41 or GSM message processing behaviors. These underlying core system functions include Node and Pathway processing configuration options, database provisioning options, database maintenance utilities, application-level database memory caching, protection of subscriber authentication data using storage encryption techniques, configuration of SS7 network addresses and protocols, architecture and operation of the data translation subsystems (XLAT and GLAT), and architecture and operation of the Application Database Synchronization subsystem.
