WebSphere brand IBM WebSphere Telecom Web Services Server, Version 7.1

Gateway

The characteristics of the Parlay gateway determine some application processing.

The Parlay Connector has application programming interfaces (APIs) that telecommunications applications can use to obtain Parlay gateway service managers. The connector APIs also provide information relevant to the processing done by telecommunications applications.

Some gateway vendors interpret the Parlay specification differently. These differences can affect application processing flow. You can increase the portability of your application by using configuration data to define the requirements for your gateway.

You can configure the gateway characteristics to the connector, and the applications can obtain the information at run time using the connector APIs. When you configure the gateway characteristics to the connector, you configure them once for all of the applications instead of configuring them for each application.
