Method and system for identification of a remote host in an out-of-band verification network

A computer-implemented network verification system comprising:

• a second device situated in a terminating call network, the second device configured to receive a call signal from a first device situated in an originating network, wherein the first device is coupled to a first registry, configured as an out-of-band system;
• and
• a second registry coupled to the second device and configured as an out-of-band system that communicates over an out-of-band verification network with the first registry, the second registry configured to, in real-time:
• store, in the second registry, E164 ranges and corresponding host addresses associated with a set of remote registries that include the first registry;
• obtain, from the second device, call data received in a call signal, and store the obtained call data as an originating call record in the second registry;
• match a calling-A number in the originating call record to one of the E164 ranges so as to identify a corresponding host address associated with the first registry;
• send, to the first registry over the out-of-band verification network using the identified host address, a verification request containing the originating call record;
• and
• receive, from the first registry over the out-of-band verification network, a verification response.

A method of identifying a remote host in a verification network, the method comprising:

• storing, in a registry configured as an out-of-band system that communicates over an out-of-band verification network with a remote registry, E164 ranges and corresponding host addresses associated with a set of remote registries;
• obtaining call data received in a call signal and storing the obtained call data as a call record in the registry, wherein the call data is obtained from a device situated in an interconnected call network and configured to receive the call signal from a remote device coupled to the remote registry;
• matching a called-B number in the call record to one of the E164 ranges so as to identify a corresponding host address associated with the remote registry;
• sending, to the remote registry over the out-of-band verification network using the identified host address, a verification request containing the originating call record;
• and
• receiving, from the remote registry over the out-of-band verification network, a verification response.
