Abstract:
A system, method, and computer readable medium for remotely migrating from a first service to a second service, comprising sensing a ring wire state, sensing a tip wire state and switching a switch device to a direct current termination based upon a difference between the ring wire state and the tip wire state.
Abstract:
A method and arrangement in a multimedia gateway connected to a multimedia service network, for providing access to multimedia services for communication devices connected to a private network. In the multimedia gateway, a communication unit receives a request from a device in the private network for a public identity associated with the multimedia gateway. An identity manager then selects and allocates an associated public identity from a pool of public identities associated with the multimedia gateway which have been predefined as valid in the multimedia service network. The communication unit then registers the device by activating the allocated associated public identity in the multimedia service network. Thereby, the multimedia gateway can establish a multimedia session on behalf of the device, using the allocated associated public identity.
Abstract:
The invention provides a method and a system for enabling communication with a device (206) of a party operating in a hybrid network. The hybrid network combines an Internet-protocol based network (202) and a non-internet-protocol based network (203), wherein the device is an Internet-protocol based device (206). The method includes contacting a first registry being (209) a member in the non-Internet-protocol based network (203) for registering the device in the non-internet-protocol based network. The method also includes contacting a second registry (210) being a member in the Internet-protocol based network (202), for registering the device in the Internet-protocol based network.
Abstract:
A system, method, and media edge proxy, MEP, for providing media data such as Internet Protocol Television, IPTV, or Internet radio channels to a media client. The MEP obtains the media data from a media server utilizing a temporary unicast connection and provides the media data obtained from the server to the media client for an initial time period. Upon determining that the initial time period has expired, the MEP obtains the media data via multicast from a multicast router, provides the media data obtained from the router to the media client, and releases the temporary unicast connection. The invention reduces channel switching delay and thus improves quality-of-experience for the end-user. The invention also avoids excessive IGMP JOIN/LEAVE signaling when a user switches quickly through channels.
Abstract:
A system and method supporting user registration, authentication and access to multimedia services via a broadband access gateway is disclosed. A representative embodiment of the present invention may comprise a wireless interface and may be capable of exchanging multimedia communication between the wireless interface and a broadband network. The gateway may determine access to available media-related services based upon information that is provisioned in a broadband access gateway prior to the first access by a user of an access device. The gateway may automatically allow access to access devices that are pre-registered, and may support opportunistic registration for those users of access devices that have not been pre-registered. Restricted access to services and networks available through the gateway may be provided even when registration is not successful, or when the access device is not pre-registered. Interactive registration for gateway access may be supported, and one-button access using either soft or hard buttons may be provided.
Abstract:
System, methods, and computer program products are provided for configuring a computing system that processes messages according to the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). The method includes defining, by a scripting-type computer processing language, one or more variables, where each variable is configured to store state data based on at least a portion of a SIP message and is associated with the SIP message flow. Once configuration is complete, a series of SIP messages belonging to the SIP message flow is received by the computer system. As each SIP message in the series is received, each SIP message is processed where the message processing includes modifying the state data stored in at least one of the variables based on data included in the respective SIP message
Abstract:
A communication network comprises an access network, a subsystem and a gateway computer that bridges the access network and the subsystem. A plurality of client applications of a single user may connect to services provided by the subsystem. The gateway registers the user in the subsystem and associates all communication of the plurality of instances with a unique identifier that identifies the combination of the user and the gateway thus reducing the number of user registrations in the subsystem.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for terminating telephony communications to a mobile telephony device that is roaming outside of its native service area make use of a forwarding termination service. The forwarding termination service causes the native mobile telephony service provider that provides service to the mobile telephony device to forward incoming telephony communications directed the native telephone number of the mobile telephony device to a forwarding access number. The forwarding termination service receives telephony communications directed to the forwarding access number, and then terminates the telephony communication to the mobile telephony device via any one of multiple different methods. The mobile telephony service provider can be instructed to implement and cancel call forwarding instructions by dialing a special character string on the mobile telephony device.
Abstract:
include using an application on a mobile device to establish first wireless communications with a first hazard detector that was previously paired with the user account. The method may also include transmitting, to the first hazard detector and using the first wireless protocol, a transmission that instructs the first hazard detector to establish second wireless communications with a second hazard detector, where the second wireless communications use a second wireless protocol. The method may additionally include transmitting network credentials to the first hazard detector using the first wireless protocol, where the credentials are then sent from the first hazard detector to the second hazard detector using the second wireless protocol, such that the second hazard detector can pair with the user account using the first wireless protocol.
Abstract:
A network system for managing remote agents of a communication center includes a primary server connected to the network the primary server controlling at least one routing point; one or more secondary servers distributed on the network and accessible to the remote agents, the secondary server or servers having data access to agent computing platforms and communication peripherals; and, a software suite distributed in part to the secondary server or servers and distributed in part to one or more agents computing platforms and peripherals, the software suite including protocol for reporting agent status data. The system monitors agents computing platforms and peripherals for activity state through the one or more secondary servers whereupon the one or more secondary servers exchange control messaging and event related data using ISCC protocols with the primary server over the network for intelligent routing purposes.
