Line 9: Although [[Message Transfer Part\|MTP]] provides routing capabilities based upon the [[Point Code]], SCCP allows routing using a [[Point Code]] and [[Subsystem number]] or a [[Global Title]]. A Point Code is used to address a particular node on the network, whereas a [[Subsystem number]] addresses a specific application available on that node. SCCP employs a process called [[Global Title Translation]] ~~(which is similar to [[Domain name system\|DNS]] resolution in [[Internet Protocol\|IP]] networks)~~ to determine [[Point Code]]s from [[Global Title]]s so as to instruct [[Message Transfer Part\|MTP]] on where to route messages. SCCP messages contain parameters which describe the type of addressing used, and how the message should be routed:
