A call set-up system sets up a call, which may be a voice call, between terminals through a plurality of packet switched networks using call agents. The networks are interconnected by network address translation (NAT) devices, and the messages to successive call agents include media addresses in the associated networks tor the actual data packets ot the call when it has been set up. The call set-up message includes the media address sent to at least some preceding call agents enabling NAT resources to be saved. The call agents can be incorporated into NAT devices, and the media addresses can be encrypted or in the form of a reference.

A communication system, for functioning without the use of dedicated lines or the Internet so as to ensure communication speed, communication quality, and communication trouble countermeasures, including a communication network and domain name server. The domain name server includes a domain name tree with a country number of a telephone number as a level 2 domain name of the domain name tree, and the domain name server receives, from a terminal, a telephone number of a destination terminal. Furthermore, based on the telephone number of the destination terminal, the domain name server (i) seeks out, in the domain name tree, an Integrated Information Communication System (ICS) user address of the destination terminal, and (ii) sends the ICS user address to the terminal, such that the communication system receives, from the terminal, the ICS user address as a destination address, and sends the ICS user frame to the destination terminal.

The present invention relates to a method and system for determining devices connected to a private network through a gateway. A Network Management System (NMS) through the use of inquiries and Port Address Translation (PAT) commands is able to determine the topology of the network of devices within a private network and thus communicate with them. This is achieved through the use of Port Address Translation (PAT) initiated by the NMS to set a port for each device connected to the gateway.

A connection is established between a node on a first network and at least one node on a second network lacking a valid address on the first network by receiving at a gateway a connection request from the node on the first network, sending information related to the connection request to a plurality of nodes on the second network, receiving responses to the sent information from at least one of the nodes on the second network, and establishing at least one connection between at least one of the nodes on the second network from which responses are received, and the node on the first network, according to the order of the received responses or according to priority weighting information or according to priority weighting information concerning the nodes from which the responses are received.

An intra-session network correlation system receives a stream of network events and groups the events into different network sessions according to event parameters and corresponding network address translation (NAT) information. An event in the stream is first matched against any existing session, and then categorized using the information about a NAT device that translates a message to which the event is related. Finally, at a predefined time, a categorized event is processed to identify other categorized events in accordance with a NAT message or an expiry timer associated with the categorized event; the categorized event and identified other categorized events are grouped into the same network session.

In a monitoring system for networked devices, a system, method, and computer program product for obtaining a globally-unique identifier for a network device, and sending the same to a central monitor responsible for monitoring devices on multiple networks. A remote monitoring workstation monitors devices connected to a network using IP-based SNMP commands and stores the device monitoring information in a database. The remote monitoring workstation queries the database to obtain an IP address and the collected monitoring information for a device, uses the IP address to request a globally-unique identifier (e.g., a MAC address) from a device using SNMP commands, then sends the monitoring information including the globally-unique device identifier to a central monitoring workstation via an e-mail message.

Enabling a host system to communicate with and to identify at least one client device that communicates with the host system through a network address translator device includes enabling communications from a first client device through the network address translator device. A data packet is received that includes a payload portion and an attribute portion, where the attribute portion includes a destination address that indicates a destination for the data packet and a nearest source address. A portion of the received data packet other than the nearest source address is examined for a host-assigned identifier that identifies a client device that communicated the received data packet. The received data packet typically is processed in accordance with predetermined host system controls accessible to the host system for the first client device identified, such as host-enabled parental controls.

A power source of a LAN terminal at a home such as home server is turned on from the outside the home via the Internet. A home gateway apparatus receives such a start request by proxy and transmits a start instruction packet to corresponding equipment on the home LAN. Although there is a case where the protocols of an external network and the home LAN are different from each other, the home gateway apparatus performs a protocol conversion process for assimilating discrepancy between the protocols. Moreover, on the home LAN, the start instruction packet to the corresponding equipment maybe issued by utilizing a magic packet technique.

A method for communicating in a network environment is provided that includes receiving a request packet and positioning an identifier into the request packet. The identifier may be identified and correlated to a source that generated the request packet. An internet protocol (IP) address associated with the source may be positioned in the request packet before communicating the request packet to a next destination.

Personal mobility, multiparty control, and device augmentation features are provided within a voice-over-Internet protocol environment, such as a distributed feature composition (DFC) telecommunications architecture. The personal mobility features allow a caller to be identified to a callee using a desired identifier in place of an identifier of the device from which a call is made. Such personal mobility features are made available in multiparty calling environments and after mid-call moves. Device augmentation features provide enhanced calling options to a device that may otherwise be unequipped to provide such options, thus enabling personal mobility and multiparty control features across a wide variety of telecommunications devices.
