ss7boost, the ISUP state machine that sits on top of ss7box, is responsible for translating trunk group indicator to span/chan on outbound calls, and translating CIC to span/chan on inbound calls. Design discussions today explored that value of adding support for phone number to span/chan translations as a way to supress most trunk-side PSTN detail into ss7boost instead of handling it in higher levels. The discussion was prompted by questions from a user on how certain per-number services and selections would be configured and handled. We realized that under the current design guidlelines, these functions could be handled in several places. It makes more sense to keep those functions inside of ss7boost and expand the definition of the purpose and function of ss7boost.
The product composed of Sangoma-Woomerang-ss7box-ss7boost may get a name soon. The Release 0.0.1 content and function is being defined. There should be a link to this description forthcoming.
ss7box.com has returned to service. The website and email are both working now. The content is returning steadily.
