In Rhino, a Resource Adaptor (RA) provides the interface between the application (Sentinel IP-SM-GW) and the network. Sentinel IP-SM-GW makes use of a number of Resource Adaptors, for purposes ranging from database connections to network integration.
OpenCloud Resource Adaptors used by Sentinel IP-SM-GW
Sentinel IP-SM-GW uses the following Resource Adaptor Entities out of the box.
| Resource Adaptor Entity | Purpose |
|---|---|
cassandra-ipsmgw |
communication with the Cassandra Database for IPSMGW specific tables |
cassandra-third-party-reg |
communication with the Cassandra Database for Registrar specific tables |
cdr |
writing of call detail records (or 3GPP Charging Data Records) |
cginmapra |
sending/receiving MAP messages to/from any network element |
diameter-sentinel-internal |
internal Ro communication between protocol handling front-ends and the internal mediation subsystem |
diameterro-0 |
communication with Online Charging Systems |
ipsmgw-correlation-ra |
enabling the correlation of IPSMGW session data with subscriber data retrieved from the HLR |
sentinel-management |
management of Sentinel subsystems |
sh-cache-ra |
communication with the HSS |
sip-sis-ra |
SIP interface for the IP-SM-GW |
sipra |
utility mechanisms for the SIP protocol |
uid |
allocation of globally unique IDs |
