Abstract
Service reference information is added to an IP telephony signaling protocol message and the IP telephony signaling protocol message is then sent to the network node in order to provide a network node using the IP telephony signaling protocol, e.g., SIP, with service reference information needed for billing purposes.
Claims27
A method, comprising:
- receiving an internet protocol-based telephony signaling protocol message;
- generating a customized applications for mobile network enhanced logic call reference number for a call;
- adding, by a processor, at least the customized applications for mobile network enhanced logic call reference number as non-internet protocol-based telephony signaling protocol service reference information to the internet protocol-based telephony signaling protocol message;
- and
- sending the modified internet protocol-based telephony signaling protocol message to a network node,
- wherein said service reference information comprises customized applications for mobile network enhanced logic-related information.
3 more elements
An apparatus, comprising at least one processor;
- and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:
- to receive an internet protocol-based telephony signaling protocol message;
- to generate a customized applications for mobile network enhanced logic call reference number for a call;
- to add at least the customized applications for mobile network enhanced logic call reference number as non-internet protocol-based telephony signaling protocol service reference information to the internet protocol-based telephony signaling protocol message;
- and
- to send the modified internet protocol-based telephony signaling protocol message to a network node,
- wherein said service reference information comprises customized applications for mobile network enhanced logic-related information.
