Methods, systems, and computer readable media for answer-based routing of Diameter request messages are disclosed. According to one method, a Diameter request message is received from a first Diameter node at a. A copy of at least a portion of the Diameter request message is cached at the DSR and the Diameter request message is routed to a second Diameter node. The DSR determines whether a predetermined condition associated with an answer to the first Diameter request message exists. In response to determining that the predetermined condition exists, the cached portion of the Diameter request message is retrieved, a Diameter request that includes the cached portion of the Diameter request message is generated, and the generated Diameter request message is routed.

Methods, systems, and computer readable media for access network discovery and selection are disclosed. According to one aspect, a system for access network discovery and selection includes an access network discovery and selection function (ANDSF) network element for identifying to a user equipment (UE) an access network through which the UE can connect to a core network, the ANDSF including an interface for communicating with nodes in a core network. The ANDSF is configured to receive information from a node in the core network and perform an access network discovery or selection operation based at least in part on the received information.

The subject matter described herein includes methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing triggerless EIR service in a Diameter network. One method includes steps performed at a Diameter routing agent (DRA). The steps include, receiving a registration or authentication information request at the DRA. The steps further include performing, by the DRA, an EIR lookup in response to the registration or authentication information request message. The method further includes, relaying the registration or authentication information request message to a home subscriber server (HSS) or a home location register (HLR) or responding on behalf of the HSS or HLR based on results of the EIR lookup.

Methods and systems for identifying and redirecting messages of different SS7 protocol variations are disclosed. A screening function receives SS7 message and identifies candidates for redirection. An SS7 variation identifier/redirection function identifies the SS7 protocol variation of incoming SS7 messages identified as candidates for redirection. The redirection candidates are encapsulated in SCCP messages. The SCCP messages are then forwarded to an application. The SCCP messages preferably include indicators identifying the protocol variations of their payloads. Upon receiving the SCCP messages, the application decodes the payloads using the protocol variation indicator.

Methods and systems for preserving dynamic random access memory content in response to a hung processor condition are disclosed. In order to preserve dynamic random access memory content, a first watchdog timer is initiated and strobed at a predetermined time interval less than its timeout value. If a hung processor condition occurs and the strobing of the first watchdog timer fails, the first watchdog timer generates a non-maskable interrupt to the processor. The non-maskable interrupt triggers the processor to execute an interrupt service routine. If the processor is able to execute the interrupt service routine, the interrupt service routine controls the processor to perform a selective system reset and preserve dynamic random access memory contents. If the processor is not capable of executing the interrupt service routine, a board reset occurs and dynamic random access memory contents are cleared.

Methods and systems for associating a plurality of different routes with the same destination and for routing signaling messages to the destination based on originating information associated with non-adjacent signaling nodes are disclosed. A routing database in a signal transfer point includes multiple routes to the same destination. The routes are distinguishable from each other in the routing database using message origination information associated with signaling nodes that are not adjacent to the signal transfer point. When a signaling message is received, origination and destination information in the signaling message are used in combination to select among multiple routes to a destination having a network address corresponding to the destination information in the signaling message. The signaling message is then routed over the route selected using the originating information. The selected route may be a high-speed route used to provide a particular quality of service.

Methods and systems for message-origination-based global title translation include receiving a signaling message and determining whether global title translation is required. In response to determining that global title translation is required, a lookup is performed in the global title translation database. The lookup is based on the called party address and the originating point code in the signaling message. The destination point code from the global title translation is inserted in the signaling message. The signaling message is then routed to its intended destination based on the destination point code and optionally the originating point code in the signaling message.

Methods and systems for defining and distributing network data collection rule sets and for filtering messages using the rule sets are disclosed. Message-based filter criteria are automatically deduced from CDR-based filter criteria and downloaded to site collectors. The site collectors implement rule changes on-the-fly using a table-driven system. The message-based rule sets downloaded to the site collectors are supersets of the messages required by multiple different network monitoring applications. As a result, non-redundant, multi-application data streams are sent across the service provider's internal network, resulting in efficient bandwidth utilization.

Methods and systems for providing enhanced network security for network management messages and subsystem management messages are disclosed. A network security function receives a network or subsystem management message from a first location in a network. The network security function determines whether one or more predetermined parameters in the network management message are not associated with the originating location. In response to determining that are not associated with the originating location, a network security action, such as discarding the message and/or notifying a network operator, is performed.

Methods, systems, and computer readable media for controlling the delivery of a social networking service originated message directed to a mobile device are disclosed. According to one example, the method performed at a routing node includes intercepting a mobility management message that includes location information associated with a mobile device, storing the location information associated with the mobile device in a location database, and receiving a social networking service originated message directed to the mobile device, wherein the message includes media content. The method further includes extracting the location information associated with the mobile device from the location database and delivering the media content to the mobile device using the extracted location information from the location database.
