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-ipsmgw-registrar

communication with the Cassandra Database for IPSMGW Registration Ownership 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

sh-cache-microservice-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
