Communication system, exchange and extension call processing method

A communication system comprising an exchange and plural ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) extension terminals accommodated in the exchange, wherein:

• said plural ISDN extension terminals are connected to said exchange in a point-multipoint connection mode through an ISDN interface,
• at least one of said plural ISDN extension terminals transmits call initiation information containing identification information thereof when a call is initiated, and
• said exchange includes:
• storage means for storing an accommodation position identification information management table representing corresponding relationship between an accommodation position and identification information of an ISDN extension terminal accommodated at the accommodation position concerned, and an identification information service class information management table representing the corresponding relationship between the identification information of said ISDN extension terminal and service class information, and
• call processing means for judging whether identification information of an ISDN extension terminal is contained in call initiation information when the call initiation information is received from said ISDN extension terminal via said ISDN interface, and searching the identification information service class information management table to obtain service class information corresponding to the identification information to perform call processing in accordance with the service class information obtained from the identification information service class information management table when the identification information of said ISDN extension terminal is contained in the call initiation information, or searching the accommodation position identification information management table to obtain the identification information of said ISDN extension terminal corresponding to an accommodation position at which the call initiation information is received from said ISDN extension terminal via said ISDN interface and searching the identification information service class information management table using the identification information obtained from the accommodation position identification information management table to obtain service class information to perform the call processing in accordance with the service class information obtained from the identification information service class information management table when the identification information is not contained in the call initiation information.

An exchange accommodating plural ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) extension terminals, wherein:

• said exchange is connected to said plural ISDN extension terminals in a point-multipoint connection mode through an ISDN interface, and
• said exchange comprises:
• storage means for storing a table representing corresponding relationship between identification information and service class information of each of said ISDN extension terminals, and
• call processing means for searching said table to obtain service class information corresponding to identification information of an ISDN extension terminal contained in call initiation information received from said ISDN extension terminal via said ISDN interface, and performing call processing in accordance with the service class information obtained from said table.

An exchange accommodating plural ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) extension terminals, wherein:

• at least one of said plural ISDN extension terminals transmits call-initiation information containing identification information when a call is initiated,
• said exchange is connected to said plural ISDN extension terminals in a point-multipoint connection mode through an ISDN interface, and
• said exchange comprises:
• storage means for storing an accommodation position identification information management table representing corresponding relationship between an accommodation position and identification information of an ISDN extension terminal accommodated at the accommodation position concerned, and an identification information service class information management table representing the corresponding relationship between the identification information of said ISDN extension terminal and service class information, and
• call processing means for judging whether identification information of an ISDN extension terminal is contained in call initiation information concerned when the call initiation information is received from each of said ISDN extension terminals via said ISDN interface, and searching the identification information service class information management table to obtain service class information corresponding to the identification information to perform call processing in accordance with the service class information obtained from the identification information service class information management table when the identification information of said ISDN extension terminal is contained in the call initiation information, or searching the accommodation position identification information management table to obtain the identification information of said ISDN extension terminal corresponding to an accommodation position at which the call initiation information is received and searching the identification information service class information management table using the identification information obtained from the accommodation position identification information management table to obtain service class information to perform the call processing in accordance with the service class information obtained from the identification information service class information management table.

A call processing method of extensions in an exchange in which plural ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) extension terminals are accommodated, wherein:

• said exchange is connected to said plural ISDN extension terminals in a point-multipoint connection mode through an ISDN interface, and
• said method comprises:
• a first step of detecting identification information of an ISDN extension terminal contained in call initiation information received from each of said ISDN extension terminals via said ISDN interface, and
• a second step of performing call processing in accordance with service class information which is predetermined in connection with the identification information thus detected.

A call processing method for an extension in an exchange in which plural ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) extension terminals are accommodated, wherein:

• at least one of said plural ISDN extension terminals transmits call-initiation information containing identification information identifying an ISDN extension terminal when a call is initiated,
• said exchange is connected to said plural ISDN extension terminals in a point-multipoint connection mode through an ISDN interface, and
• said method comprises:
• a first step of judging whether identification information of said ISDN extension terminal is contained in call initiation information received from each of said ISDN extension terminals via said ISDN interface, and
• a second step of performing call processing based on service class information predetermined in connection with identification information of said ISDN extension terminal if the identification information is contained in the received call initiation information, or searching to obtain identification information of said ISDN extension terminal predetermined in connection with an accommodation position at which the call initiation information is received and performing call processing in accordance with the service class information predetermined in connection with the identification information obtained by the search if no identification information is contained in the call initiation information.
