Re: Do All Calls to DID Go Through Original CLEC After Ported? Oh and forgot to say...
From what I was told typically there is no initial lookup in an LNP database when a call is originated. Calls are simply processed as "normal" - that is, assuming the number has not been ported. This is the part that I don't recall 100% but I thought the original service provider would typically return an LRN if the number had been ported. If it didn't return an LRN then there was at least some other indication that it was not the "end point" for the call. Then at that point the originating switch would do the LNP lookup "song and dance".
Anyway that's why I thought the original xLEC was typically involved in at least the initial signalling part of a call. |

| If your described scenario is correct, then it would appear that it takes longer to complete a call to a ported number than to complete a call to a non-ported number, due to the extra steps you described involved when the number is a ported one. |

Not really. The LNP database lookup needs to be done either way (only a failure to find the dialed number in the database tells the provider that the number has not been ported).
