Advanced Generic Number Translation

The Generic Number or Generic Address parameter is located in the ISUP messaging and is offered to callers who wish to use a presentation/display number which is different than their main number. The IMG 2020 can be configured so the outgoing information such as Number Qualifier Indicator, Nature of Address, Numbering Plan Indicator, etc can be translated. The settings selected in each of the fields will be included in the Generic Address Parameter if the Generic # Translation field in the Translation Table Element object being configured is populated with an outgoing number. See below.
