Applicable contexts |

Prerequisite features |
The MNP (Mobile Number Portability) Lookup Feature performs a MAP AnyTimeInterrogation MNP lookup based on the address selected by a previous execution of the Determine MNP Lookup Number Feature. The MNP ATI destination HLR is determined by the configuration associated with the feature. The party to look up is based on the MNPLookupNumber saved into session state by the Determine MNP Lookup Number Feature.
The MNP response is saved in the sentinel session state.

Configuration
The MNP Lookup configuration includes:
| Parameters | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
OriginatingSccpAddress |
Will be used as the TCAP Calling Party Address in dialogs initiated towards the HLR and MSC. May be null in which case the local SCCP address configured for the platform will be used. Example: |
|
InvokeTimeout |
Long |
AnyTimeInterrogation invoke timeout in milliseconds (for example, 5000). A 0 value results in CGIN RA defaults being used. |
GSMSCFAddress |
Return address for responses (for example, address of Sentinel) |
|
MNPSRFSccpAddress |
Static address of an MNP SRF. |
