Estimating the term…
The present invention makes it possible to connect to and communicate with a connect destination by using a temporary number. In the present invention, a temporary number user terminal (100) registers a temporary number acquired from a SIP account server (300) in a SIP proxy server (400), and connects to and communicates with a connected user terminal (200) by using the temporary number. After the communication is finished, the temporary number is unregistered from the SIP proxy server (400), thereby disabling a connection from the connected user terminal (200). Also, connection conditions are provided by specifying the validity period of connection using a temporary number, the number of times connection can be made, the connect destination to which connection can be made, and the like, and only those calls which meet the connection conditions are accepted, thereby making it possible to restrict the uses of the temporary number.
A temporary connection number management system which connects a first terminal and a second terminal to each other by using a temporary connection number via a communication network that is subject to call control by SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) and capable of transmission-quality reservation, comprising:
A terminal which connects to a connected terminal by using a temporary connection number issued by a temporary connection number issuing device via a communication network that is subject to call control by SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) and capable of transmission-quality reservation, characterized by comprising:
A temporary connection number management method for a first terminal in a temporary connection number management system which connects the first terminal and a second terminal to each other by using a temporary connection number via a communication network that is subject to call control by SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) and capable of transmission-quality reservation, characterized by comprising:
A temporary connection number management program characterized by causing a computer to execute:
