Advanced Intelligent Network · ANSI AIN
North American Advanced Intelligent Network defines detection points, triggers, and SCP transactions (often over TCAP) for number translation, LNP, toll-free, and screening services. It is the ANSI counterpart mindset to ITU INAP/CAP, with Info_Analyzed and related messages driving SSP–SCP call control.
