In the Intelligent Networks environment, where multiple Service Providers and multi-Vendor equipment are involved in new service offering, the risk of overloading the network elements are real and managing the traffic is a challenge. Network traffic overloads could result from equipment failures, major equipment outages, or widespread loads above engineered levels. To solve the problem of network traffic overload, a direct link interconnect feature between the two SCPs that are deployed in load sharing mode in the network is provided. The communications link interconnects the two SCPs within the load sharing group, whereby the SCPs may exchange information on their congestion levels and controls as well as route queries to the SCP that is not overloaded.
