The invention relates to a process for providing the subscriber number of the calling subscriber in connection requests routed from a private communications network (PRNET) into a public communications network (PUBNET), and to a service unit (SCP) and a private communications network (PRNET) for the implementation of the process. The service unit (SCP) of the public communications network is triggered for a connection request routed from the private communications network (PRNET) into the public communications network (PUBNET) if the connection request is routed from the private communications network (PRNET) into the public communications network (PUBNET) in a local network area (AREA1 to AREA3) which does not correspond to the local network area (AREA1) assigned to the calling subscriber (A). If the service unit (SCP) is triggered for such a connection request, it determines the local network area code assigned to the calling subscriber (A) and ensures that this code is entered in the connection request as local network area code of the calling subscriber.
A method for providing the subscriber number of the calling subscriber (A) in connection requests routed from a private communications network (PRNET) into a public communications network (PUBNET), characterised in that a service unit (SCP) of the public communications network (PUBNET) is triggered for a connection request routed from the private communications network (PRNET) into the public communications network when the connection request is routed from the private communications network (PRNET) into the public communications network (PUBNET) in a local network area (AREA1 to AREA3) which does not correspond to the local network area (AREA1) assigned to the calling subscriber (A) of the connection request, and that when it is triggered for such a connection request, the service unit (SCP) determines the local network area code assigned to the calling subscriber (A) of the connection request and ensures that this code is entered in the connection request as local network area code of the calling subscriber.
A service unit (SCP) for supporting the provision of the subscriber number of the calling subscriber (A) in connection requests routed from a private communications network (PRNET) into a public communications network (PUBNET), characterised in that the service unit (SCP) is designed such that, when it is triggered for a connection request routed from the private communications network (PRNET) into the public communications network (PUBNET) in a local network area (AREA1 to AREA3) which does not correspond to the local network area (AREA1) assigned to the calling subscriber (A) of the connection request, it determines the local network area code assigned to the calling subscriber (A) of the connection request and ensures that this code is entered in the connection request as local network area code of the calling subscriber.
A private communications network (PRNET) with one or more gateways (G1 to G5) for the transmission of connection requests from calling subscribers (A) of the private communications network (PRNET) into a public communications network (PUBNET), characterised in that the private communications network (PRNET) is provided with a control unit (PABX1) which is designed such that, when a connection request is routed into the public communications network (PUBNET) in a local network area (AREA1 to AREA3) which does not correspond to the local network area (AREA1) assigned to the calling subscriber (A) of the connection request, it triggers a service unit (SCP) of the public-communications network for this connection request, which service unit (SCP) then determines the local network area code assigned to the calling subscriber (A) of the connection request and ensures that this code is entered in the connection request as local network area code of the calling subscriber (A).
