Abstract
In cases when a called participant is not registered on a packet oriented network, a call-back request made by a calling subscriber is transmitted automatically to a substitutional device which is disposed in a network and assigned to the called subscriber. Preferably, the callback request is stored in a separate database. As soon as the called subscriber is registered in the network, the callback request is transmitted to the called subscriber.

A method for an automatic callback in a packet-oriented network, comprising:
- automatically transmitting, when a called subscriber is not registered on the packet-oriented network, a callback request from a calling subscriber to a deputizing device, which acts as the called subscriber by storing information and fulfilling protocol requirements associated with the called subscriber and is located in the packet-oriented network and assigned to the called subscriber;
- storing the callback request in the deputizing device;
- and
- automatically transmitting the callback request to the called subscriber for execution, as soon as the called subscriber registers on the packet-oriented network.
A method for an automatic callback in a packet-oriented network, comprising:
- automatically storing a callback request in the packet-oriented network if the called subscriber is registered on the packet-oriented network when the callback request is activated by a calling subscriber but de-registers from the packet-oriented network before the callback request is executed;
- and
- automatically transmitting the callback request to the called subscriber for execution, as soon as the called subscriber registers again on the packet-oriented network,
- wherein the callback request is stored in a deputizing device, which acts as the called subscriber by storing information and fulfilling protocol requirements associated with the called subscriber and is assigned to the called subscriber.
