The LNP service supports the migration of fixed-network subscribers among different locations or different carriers networks without changing their numbers. For example, when fixed-network subscriber A, who homes to the network of carrier A and uses the number A, migrates to the network of carrier B and enjoys the services provided by carrier B without changing the number (number A), this is called the LNP service.
