 INTRODUCTION

•The fundamental building blocks of next-generation networks, applications,

and services start with IP. At Layer 3, IP is the networking messenger
between data computing applications, IP telephony conversations, and IP
video sessions. The success of IP has been beneficial to another ancillary
building block: the rise of Ethernet technology at Layer 2. Layer 2
challengers with the pull of Ethernet's simplicity, adaptability, and
interoperability with all Layer 1 mediums. Where IP is the Layer 3 packaging
, Ethernet is the Layer 2 conveyor belt that leads to the digital versions of
mail bags (wireline), photonic locomotives (optical), and stealth jet planes
(wireless), all at Layer I. IP, Ethernet, optical, and wireless are the must-have
networking layers, in essence, the new-era building blocks with which to
construct and enhance networks that are flexible, fast, and service rich.

 VARIOUS BLOCKS IN NGN

• Media Gateway (MG)

• Signalling Gateway
• Media Gatewat Contorller
• Application Server
• Parley
 MEDIA GATEWAY

• Protocol converter between different types of networks

(Example— MG between circuit-switched voice network -
TDM flows, and the IP network - RTP packet flows). MG
processes incoming calls via requests to the Application Server
using HTTP. The media gateway (MG) terminates IP and
circuit-switched traffic. MGS relay voice, fax, modem and
ISDN data traffic over the IP network using Quality of Service
enabled IP technology.
 SIGNALLING GATEWAY

• Signaling Gateway (SG) offers a consolidated

signaling interface - SS7 signaling point for the
NGN platform. Also, SG supports a SIGTRAN
interface (IETF SS7 telephony signaling over
IP) as well as IP Proxy functions (SIP).
 MEDIA GATEWAY CONTROLLER

• MGC acts as the master controller of a media

gateway
• Supervises terminals attached to a network
• Provides a registration of new terminals
• Manages E. 164 addresses among terminals
 APPLICATION SERVER

•Application Server (AS) consists a number of modular application

building blocks; server generates VoiceXML pages. ( VoiceXML is
a standards-based scripting language for developing voice-enabled
software applications). The modular design of the next generation
communications platform makes it easy to deploy enhanced
services such as unified communications solutions, multimedia
messaging services, and presence & availability management
applications.
 PARLEY

• Parlay is an evolving set of specifications for industry-standard

application programming interfaces (APIs) for managing network
"edge" services:

• Call control

• Messaging

• Content-based charging.
