Hi,
I need help regarding the Following queries:

1 - How can a GSM subscriber be differentiated from a
ANSI-136 subscriber? (Is the subscriber address of a
different format?)

2 - How can a IIF(Interworking and Interoperability
Function) address be differentiated from a normal
Serving GSM-MSC address or a Serving ANSI-136-MSC
Address ?

Any light on the above questions will be a great relief !
I suppose this query is in the right place ..... If not, do suggest the correct place.

TIA,
Atul.

In what context you are looking for?
Generally GSM Subscribers have unique IMSI where as ANSI subs have
ESN.

Based on address you need to have a lookup table or something like that.
Just by seeing the address, i think, you can not differentiate.
