Originating calls in FreeSWITCH
Through fs_cli you can orignate calls from FreeSWITCH. At the CLI you can use the originate command to start a call, this can be used for everything from scheduled wake up calls, outbound call centers, to war dialing.

Reflective QoS in 5G
A great new feature of #5G Core Networks is Reflective QoS – Where QoS of the traffic coming to a UE is reflected on the QoS coming out.
When moving the telephone exchange is easier than moving the lines within it…
Relocating vast numbers of subscriber lines is something to be avoided. In 1929 Indiana Bell realized they needed a larger telephone exchange (“CO” to use the US term) to meet growing demand, and while there was vacant land around the current building, it wasn’t large enough to build on with the current building slap-dab in […]

5G Online Charging with the Nchf_ConvergedCharging SBI
There’s no such thing as a free lunch, and 5G is the same – services running through a 5G Standalone core need to be billed. In 5G Core Networks, the SMF (Session Management Function) reaches out to the CHF (Charging Function) to perform online charging, via the Nchf_ConvergedCharging Service Based Interface (aka reference point).
