Abstract
The present application describes methods and systems for improving user communication in a network-based communication system. In one or more embodiments, a datacenter provides a unique connection address network device that connects to the datacenter. By providing a unique connection address, the datacenter can provide customized network-level settings on a per network device basis. In addition, the datacenter can also provide customized network identification on a per network device basis.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving a first request for a connection address, the first request including a first identifier associated with a first network device;
- providing a first connection address to the first network device, wherein the first connection address comprises a shared component and a first exclusive component;
- receiving a second request for a connection address, the second request including a second identifier associated with a second network device;
- and
- providing a second connection address to the second network device, wherein the second connection address comprises the shared component and a second exclusive address component.
2 more elements
A method, comprising:
- receiving a connection request from a first voice over Internet Protocol device;
- identifying a first device characteristic for the first voice over Internet Protocol device;
- determining network-level settings for the first voice over Internet Protocol device based on the first device characteristic;
- associating the determined network-level settings for the first voice over Internet Protocol device with a first connection address comprising a shared component and a first exclusive component;
- and
- assigning the first connection address to the first voice over Internet Protocol device.
3 more elements
A system, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to:
- receive a connection request from a first voice over Internet Protocol device;
- identify a first device characteristic for the first voice over Internet Protocol device;
- determine network-level settings for the first voice over Internet Protocol device based on the first device characteristic;
- associate the determined network-level settings for the first voice over Internet Protocol device with a first connection address comprising an Internet Protocol address and a first port number;
- and
- assign the first connection address to the first voice over Internet Protocol device.
