The LPG is a signaling and media interconnection point between the NG9-1-1 Emergency Services Network and legacy PSAPs. It is responsible for interworking the SIP signaling to the Traditional MF or Enhanced MF (E-MF) signaling supported by the legacy PSAP and is responsible for providing emergency services-specific processing associated with transfer requests to and from legacy PSAPs and for processing… (Read More →)

The LSRG provides an interface between 9-1-1 Selective Routers and NG9-1-1 Emergency Services Networks. It enables calls to be routed and/or transferred between Legacy and NG9-1-1 networks. It is used in some network deployment models for the transition from Legacy 9-1-1 to NG9-1-1.

A computer that connects two or more electronic mail systems (especially dissimilar mail systems on two different networks) and transfers messages between them.
Note: The mapping and translation can be quite complex, and can require a store-and-forward scheme whereby the message is received from one system completely before it is transmitted to the next system after suitable translations. [After Bahorsky]

The Media Gateway Controller Function (MGCF) provides the ability to control a trunking media gateway function (T-MGF) through a standardized interface. Such control includes allocation and deallocation of resources of the media gateway, as well as modification of the usage of these resources. The MGCF communicates with the CSCF, the BGCF and circuit-switched networks. The MGCF performs protocol conversion between… (Read More →)
