Abstract
A network system for call processing, including customer premises equipment originating a call across a network, wherein the call includes private and public information; a session border controller directing the call information from the customer premises equipment to a public switched telephone network gateway, wherein the session border controller parses out the private information from the call information transmitted to the gateway; and one or more servers coupled to the session border controller, routing only the non-private call information to the public switched telephone network gateway.
Claims13
A network system for call processing, comprising:
- customer premises equipment originating a call across a network, wherein the call includes private and public information;
- a session border controller directing the call information from the customer premises equipment to a public switched telephone network gateway, wherein the session border controller parses out the private information from the call information transmitted to the gateway;
- and
- one or more servers coupled to the session border controller, routing only the non-private call information to the public switched telephone network gateway.
A computer-implemented method for processing calls across a network, comprising:
- initiating a call from customer premises equipment;
- directing the call through a first session border controller, wherein the first session border controller blocks transmission of call private information;
- transmitting the non-private call information through one or more servers of a private network to a second session border controller;
- and
- forwarding the non-private call information from the second session border controller to a public switched telephone network gateway, wherein the second session border controller blocks the address of the public switched telephone network gateway from the private network.
