MNP: nothing is ready
I have long had suspicions that the introduction of MNP in Russia follows the scenario of the Unified State Automated Information System , but I am not an employee of a cellular operator, nor a ministry, much less KCNDSI , so I did not have confirmation until yesterday.
The situation looks really quite suspicious - since December everything should work in production for all mobile operators, and nowhere even the API drafts for access to the base of mobile numbers or at least the conditions for access to it for someone not big are mentioned. threes.
However, as shown by yesterday’s open government meeting, the big three also don’t know how it will work. And he doesn’t know because they don’t know this either in the ministry itself, which is carrying out “reform” and preparing amendments to the law “On Communications”.
That is, at the moment we have this:
')
- the procedure of number transfer specified in the government resolution contradicts the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (by the way, I am also interested in other aspects, for example, how it will affect the distribution of numbering capacity, rights to use the number, etc., but I couldn’t find anything anywhere ).
- Technically, nothing is ready, the operators are asked to provide at least some specifications to start work. That is, there is still no technical regulation or API.
- Accordingly, no one knows whether this database will be in the form of a service or will it be some kind of discretely updated dump.
- There are no guarantees that access to this information will be free
- There is no information about how the subscriber will be informed about where he is calling and in general whether someone will be obliged to inform him about it. In fact, this calls into question the functioning of already existing tariffs for on-net calls (“prices will not change” (c) Minister Nikiforov)
- Nowhere does it say whether an up-to-date database of numbers will be available for small fixed-line operators, IP-telephony, mini-PBX owners, etc. (that is, those who need to route calls depending on which operator they land on)
- “Modernization” is carried out by very strange people who, right at the meeting, ask lawyers how to get around the contradictions in an already approved document.
It would be possible to believe in conspiracy (“the ministry sabotages NMP on the orders of operators by exposing themselves as incapable amateurs”), but judging because the report describes the promotion of an intermediary who will receive 300 million a year and will not answer for anything, you will have to use a razor Henlon and store popcorn for the winter :)
