Method for processing voice messages, method for deactivating DTMF coding and method for processing a request to deactivate DTMF coding

A method for disabling DTMF encoding on a communication channel between a voice server and a terminal, the method being implemented by the voice server and comprising:

• receiving a request that must be interpreted by a request server to disable DTMF encoding on the channel;
• enabling for the channel an alternative solution for communicating with the terminal, instead of the DTMF encoding;
• and
• sending to the terminal, in response to said request, an item of configuration data including a positive acknowledgment of the request.

A voice server connected to a terminal via a communication channel and which can communicate with the terminal by DTMF encoding, the voice server comprising:

• communicating means configured to receive a request that must be interpreted by said voice server to disable DTMF encoding on said channel;
• and
• parametizer configured to enable for the channel an alternative solution for communicating with the terminal, instead of the DTMF encoding,
• the communicating means being configured to send to the terminal, in response to said request, an item of configuration data including a positive acknowledgment of the request.

A voice server connected to a terminal via a communication channel and able to communicate with the terminal by DTMF encoding, the voice server comprising:

• communicating means configured to receive a request that must be interpreted by the voice server to disable DTMF encoding on the channel;
• and
• a parametizer configured to maintain the DTMF encoding,
• the communicating means being configured to send to the terminal, in response to said request, a negative acknowledgement of the request and/or an item of configuration data including a command so that the terminal interprets for a determined time period the voice messages detected by the terminal as voice commands.
