Interrogating-CSCF
The I-CSCF performs mostly as a load distribution device. The I-CSCF queries the Home Subscriber Server (HSS) to
identify the appropriate Serving-CSCF (S-CSCF) to which the call is sent. Since the HSS maintains user profile
information (much like the Home Location Register (HLR) in the Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN)), the I-CSCF
can identify the proper S-CSCF for the call. The I-CSCF may also query a AAA server to determine subscriber profile
information using DIAMETER.
Important:
The I-CSCF is incorporated into the S-CSCF.
