CNAM Proxy Server

CNAM Proxy Server


This idea is hereby placed into the public domain as of 2005-12-2. This architecture applies to any and all SS7 hosted services.

We've been doing a lot of work with CNAM lately and have ability to send queries and analyse responses as an end user, and to receive queries and send responses as a CNAM server.

It's apparent that demand for CNAM access is going unmet because SS7 access is an expensive barrier. If there were a server connected to the SS7 network, it could act as an interface to IP connected clients sending requests for CNAM dips.

The CNAM server would take a simple request with little more than a phone number and return a response with a name string and other control indicators.

Requests on the client side could come from
  • A PSTN switch connected to a local CNAM client that either satisfies the CNAM request with locally stored information or forwards the request over the Internet to a CNAM server.
  • A softswitch that is IP enabled.
  • A IP enabled web, Windows, or Linux application.

The following diagram shows the network architecture of this idea.
