Subscribers benefit: Convenience of customer to personalize the same number across the Operators, Locations and Services. (No age for your number.) Better QOS, more features and services, better tariff plans for customers. No cost incurred to notify the new contact details to the others( friends, family, business..)
Operator s benefit: Healthy competition and an opportunity to explore more services/features. Operator with best QOS will gain the subscribers. Introduction of innovative service.
Regulatorys benefit: A better means to facilitate the subscribers the best of services from different operators. Use this infrastructure to resolve Directory Number resource problems.

NPGW(NP Gateway): To be managed by IT team. On one side it would be talking to BOSS/BSCS for provisioning port in subscribers in to HLRs and on other side it would be talking to STP NEM (Network Element Manager) to download porting data. Connectivity : IP, Protocol: NPGW vendor specific.
STP NEM (Network Element Manager): To be managed by network team. NEM would be STP vendor specific. NEM would be centralized node which will be talking to all STPs to dump porting data in to STP NPDB. Connectivity: IP, Protocol: MML. STP NPDB (Number Portability Database): To be managed by network team. All core network elements like MSC/MSS, IN, HLR, SMSC, MMSC, SGSN etc will be connected to STPs and STP will refer its own NPDB to know the porting status of called party for all scenarios which require NP check like Calls, SMS, MMS etc. Connectivity: IP/TDM, Protocol: All GSM protocols (MAP, CAP, CS1+, CS1, CS2, INAP, SIGTRAN etc.
CNPMS: CNPMS is nothing but MCH (Central Clearing House) DNO OSSGW & RNO OSS GW: Donor OSS GW & Recipient OSS GW. OSS GW is nothing but IT piece of NPGW. LSMS/QNPDB: LSMS/QNPDB is nothing but network piece of NPGW.

MMS solution
MMS platform can apply charging based on called subscribers domain name. MMSC can know the called subscribers domain name based on IMSI returned from HLR in Sri_for_SM solution (relation data between domain name and IMSI number range is configured in MMSC). The relation data between domain name and IMSI number ranges is configured in MMSC. When MMSC receives a MMS, MMSC can send Sri_for_SM, STP will intercept the message and route it to correct HLR. HLR will returned the called IMSI to MMSC, MMSC can know the domain name which the called subscriber belongs to, so MMSC can route the MMSC correctly based on returned IMSI from HLR .

Additional 25% signaling load will increase from the day1 of MNP launch. Migration of all core elements on STP to be MNP ready with in given dead line would be the critical task. Changes in tariffs (RN based tariffs instead if MSISDN) Ericsson IN nodes are working on CS1+ (Ericsson proprietary) protocol which is not supported by many STPs for IDP message modification for MNP lookup. Software development required by IN Vendors, to send CONNECT message in response to IDP query from STP. Connect message saves additional signaling whereas Continue message does not. Monitoring and interception related issues.
