Open Settlements Protocol and Cisco Questions and AnswersAdded by Papergrl
Description:
The protocol specifies a method for an originating gateway at a subscriber carrier to request a termination point from the OSP server at the clearinghouse organization. The OSP server provides a secure token-based signature to certify to a terminating gateway that the call has been authorized and will be settled. The OSP server provides a secure link between the gateways and server to transfer accounting and routing information. The OSP protocol does not specify the method by which routes are selected by the route server, a function of the OSP server. OSP-based clearinghouses provide least cost and best route selection algorithms based on a variety of parameters their subscriber carriers provide, including cost, quality, and specific carrier preferences.
