CallForwardingDetection

Applicable contexts

SS7 service

SAS Support

No

Prerequisite Features

ClassifyCallScenario

The CallForwardingDetection feature analyses an MT initialdp to determine if early call forwarding applies for this call. If call forwarding is pending, the call will be allowed to continue with no charging or monitoring of the call.

This feature prevents an unnecessary credit check with the OCS and unnecessary monitoring of the call when the outcome is already determined.

IF initialdp.gsm-forwardingPending is set AND initialdp.gsm-forwardingPending is true THEN
   instruct call to continue with no monitoring and no charging.
ELSE
   allow the call to proceed without any affect from this feature
ENDIF
If the SessionType of the call is not MobileTerminating then this feature must end without affecting the call.
