Abstract
A telephony call manager includes a call model having call processing logic, and a signaling interface for each respective signaling protocol encountered by the call manager. Each signaling interface is operable to convert call events in each respective signaling protocol to messages of a generic protocol and communicate the messages to the call model.
Claims59
A telephony call manager, comprising:
- a call model having call processing logic;
- and
- a signaling interface for each respective signaling protocol encountered by the call manager, each signaling interface operable to convert call events in each respective signaling protocol to messages of a generic protocol and communicate the messages to the call model.
A telecommunications switch having a call manager, the call manager comprising:
- a call model having call processing logic;
- and
- a signaling interface for each respective signaling protocol encountered by the call manager, each signaling interface operable to convert call events in each respective signaling protocol to messages of a generic protocol and communicate the messages to the call model.
A method for interfacing a telephony call manager various signaling protocols, comprising:
- mapping call events of various signaling protocols to messages of a generic protocol;
- and
- communicating the messages to a call model to process the call events.
A method for interfacing a telephony call manager various signaling protocols, comprising:
- receiving call events in various signaling protocols from respective signaling interfaces;
- converting the call events to messages of a generic protocol;
- sending the generic protocol messages to a call model;
- receiving generic protocol messages from the call model;
- converting the generic protocol messages to call events of respective signaling protocols;
- and
- sending the call events to the respective signaling interface.
