A Gateway Home Location Register (GHLR) includes a signaling transceiving
module, a security rule configuration module, and a routing information
security analysis module. A method of exchanging roaming subscriber
routing information includes the following steps: the GHLR in the home
network receives an information request and determines the request
according to the security rules in GHLR; if the request is according to
the security rules in GHLR, GHLR sends called information to the network
element capable of fetching subscriber routing information in the visited
network. Through introducing a roaming subscriber information security
control method and a device GHLR, this invention can solve the problem of
exchanging roaming subscriber information between networks, support the
visited network to provide service for the roaming subscribers in it, and
protect security of the home operator and subscriber information.
