Abstract
Methods and apparatus to select a dynamically peered voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) border element are disclosed. An example method comprises collecting data representative of a dynamic performance of a voice over Internet protocol network, prioritizing a selection of a peered border element based on the collected data, and modifying a telephone number mapping (ENUM) database based on the prioritized selection.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- collecting performance data representative of a dynamic performance of a voice over Internet protocol network;
- reducing a processing load of a peered border element by prioritizing a selection of the peered border element based on the collected performance data;
- and
- modifying a telephone number mapping database based on the prioritized selection.
An apparatus comprising:
- a memory storing machine readable instructions;
- a processor to execute the instructions to reduce a processing load of a peered border element by prioritizing a selection of the peered border element based on collected performance data representative of a dynamic performance of a voice over Internet protocol network;
- and
- a telephone number mapping database interface to modify a telephone number mapping database based on the selection.
A tangible machine readable storage device including instructions which, when executed, cause a machine to perform operations comprising:
- collect performance data representative of a dynamic performance of a voice over Internet protocol network;
- reduce a processing load of a peered border element by prioritizing a selection of the peered border element based on the collected performance data;
- and
- modify a telephone number mapping database based on the prioritized selection.
