    Dear, Arvind!
    MSC = Control Plane (signalling) + Transport Plane (switching);
    MSC-server = only control plane (signalling and bearer control).

    MSS is Rel4 concept, meaning there is no switching part in it, all switching and termi*na*tion equipment is moved to MGW (media gateway).
    MSC includes switching part e.g group switch.

    MSS is also known as a Soft-Switc as it does not have a switch like a MSC/VLR. MSS handles pure signalling whilst the MGw handles the payload traffic.

    Hi All

    as i know
    MSS and MGw is rel4, MGw handles bearers (voice) only while MSS is for all signalling

    Correct Kuna. 3GPP Release 4 was the specification that was used to introduce
    MGw and the re-purposing of the MSC as a pure signalling node. BICC (ISUP and CS-2) was also introduced.
