First Claim
1. In a switching control point, (SCP), a method of implementing code gapping of call control messages, comprising the step of:
- in said SCP, generating a code gapping control message consisting only of code gapping control information; and
transmitting said code gapping control message to each of a plurality of switches served by said SCP.

Abstract
In a wireless telecommunications network, apparatus and method for code gapping messages from mobile switching centers to switching control points. The switching control point, (SCP), sends a stand-alone message containing only code gap control information to each of the MSCs served by the SCP. The code gap control message specifies the types of messages which are to be subject to code gap control, as well as the code gap interval and overall timer interval. The message further specifies such details as the range of digits of calls for which messages are to be subject to code gap control. Advantageously, the specification of the details of code gap control is made more efficient.
