A method for utilizing a Diameter proxy agent to communicate short message service (SMS) messages in a Diameter network includes receiving, from an SMS service center via a Diameter interface, a mobile subscriber location information request message directed to a home subscriber server (HSS), wherein mobile subscriber location information request message is associated with a recipient mobile subscriber. The method further includes querying a number portability database to determine whether the recipient mobile subscriber has been ported to a foreign network and forwarding the mobile subscriber location information request message toward a gateway associated with the foreign network In response to determining the recipient mobile subscriber has been ported to the foreign network. The method also includes, in response to determining the recipient mobile subscriber has not been ported to the foreign network, forwarding the request message to the HSS in the first network or the foreign network. |
