As a complete object, the physical configuration and resource management of MSC are
performed uniformly on a platform. The virtual MSC means to manage the related
attributes of a city (such as the toll area number, toll area ID, etc) according to the
physical locations of the switch, thus it seems that a virtual MSC serves the users in
each city.
1. Interface operations
160
Chapter 3 MSCe Configuration
Toll area code: the code of the toll area of the corresponding city of the virtual
MSC
Toll area ID: the ID of the corresponding city of the virtual MSC
Each virtual MSC requires digit analysis selector. That is, the corresponding
virtual MSC digit analysis selector of each city should be configured according
to the actual conditions.
The digit analysis selectors restrict how to handle when the switch receives the
calling numbers from users or from other switches. If Number Analysis is not
configured, these options cannot be selected temporarily until the Number
Analysis is configured. Here:
DAS1 (MS originating) means how to determine the call type and how to handle
when the switch receives a call from the MS. If the called party is a mobile
subscriber, MSC needs to query the route information to the corresponding HLR.
If the called party is a wired subscriber, the MSC needs to connect the call to the
corresponding local office or toll office based on the local call or toll call.
161
CM3G-302-E1 Introduction to the ZXC10 MSCe Data Configuration
DAS2 (roaming number) means how to handle when the switch receives the
roaming number provided by the HLR. When the MSC receives the roaming
numbers from HLR, this DAS will judge whether the number is a local mobile
service or an outgoing mobile service. If it is a local service, send it to the
corresponding module for handling. If it is an outgoing service, select the
corresponding route chain for call connection.
DAS4 (IP analysis) means to analyze the numbers dialed through IP service.
DAS8 (MAP calling MS DAS) needs to be configured only when the switch
supports special Overlay CAMEL service.

Discount date: eight types: every day, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday:
Time point 1 to time point 17: time point 1 and time point 2 form a discount
zone. And by analogy, other discount zones are formed.
Discount rate: the unit of discount rate. If the discount is based on percentage,
the unit is “%”; if the discount is based on actual period, the unit is “10ms”.
Discount zone 1 to discount zone 16: set a discount rate for discount zones 1 to
16. But usually only some of the zones are used
You can repeat the above steps to add multiple common-time discounts.
You can click Cancel or click the button in the upper right corner to end

· Security variable
4.1 Overview
The ZXC10-MSCe data configuration covers two parts:
A great amount of data configured and modified by the background subsystem is saved
in the database. The configuration data will be effective only after it is sent to the
foreground subsystem.
Data synchronization is to transfer the data from the background subsystem to the
foreground subsystem to make the user’s configuration data effective.
Data restoration is to restore the backup data to the system. In data restoration, the
original data will be overwritten. If unnecessary, try to avoid this operation.
223
CM3G-302-E1 Introduction to the ZXC10 MSCe Data Configuration
Transfer the data from the background to the foreground subsystem to make the
user’s configuration data effective.
Transfer all tables. Due to the low transfer speed, this option is usually not used
unless for commissioning.
Transfer the changed table. That is, transfer the changed data tables only to the
foreground. It is used to transfer some modified tables independently, trying to
reduce data transfer loads upon the system.

The data has been configured (some data can also be synchronized).

4. Data synchronization
Select the module, synchronization tables and synchronization option, input the
Timer value, and click . The prompt for your confirmation is displayed.
Click OK to begin synchronizing the data to the foreground.
To send the data to one module of the switch only, you can select the specified
module for independent transmission.
y Note:
When synchronizing data for the first time, be sure to synchronize the R_CONST table
first and then synchronize all tables.
5. Result verification
Query whether the data tables are consistent with those defined in the
background through the probe.
Restoration is to restore the data files stored on the disks to the system.
