Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer program products are disclosed for triggering SIP nodes to include SS7 routing information in response messages including information requested by SS7 nodes. A message having SS7 routing information is received from a remote SS7 node. A corresponding SIP message is generated that includes the SS7 routing information and a parameter for triggering the SIP node to include the routing information in a response message. The corresponding SIP message is forwarded to a remote SIP node.
