Abstract:
A method is provided for managing a plurality of media flows to be reproduced by a calling device prior to the finalization of the establishment of a communication. The method is implemented by the calling device prior to the finalization of the communication. The method includes sending a request for the creation of the communication to at least one called device. For each media stream of the plurality of media streams, a first degree of priority associated with the media stream is searched for in a message received in response to the request for creation of the communication. A media stream to be played is selected from the plurality of media streams, according to second degrees of priority associated with the media streams of the plurality of media streams, the second degrees of priority obtained according to the result of the search.
Abstract:
A monitoring method implemented by an access point for a network that can maintain an address association table is described. The method can include selecting at least two entries in the address association table, storing at least one predetermined characteristic obtained over a predefined period of time for each inflow and each outflow associated with the selected entries, and comparing, for at least one pair of selected entries, at least one stored characteristic for an inflow associated with one of the entries of the pair with the at least one corresponding stored characteristic for an outflow associated with the other entry of the pair. If, for at least one pair of entries, the comparison step indicates that an inflow associated with one of the entries of the pair transports an application content of the same nature as an outflow associated with the other entry of the pair, a risk of fraud can be detected.
Abstract:
A method for locating a quality of service problem implemented on a terminal during a multi-media session between two terminals over a communication network, which includes at least one media gateway that is able to retransmit media data packets without particular processing according to a “router mode” of management. The terminals obtain a first quality of service data item relating to the multi-media session. Following a change in the mode of management to a “relay mode” in which the multi-media session initially established between the terminals is split into two separate multi-media sessions, it includes: obtaining of a second quality of service data item relating to one of the two multi-media sessions established following the change in the mode of management of the media gateway; comparing the first and second quality of service data items; and locating the quality of service problem depending on the result of the comparison.
Abstract:
A terminal and a method for configuring such a terminal are provided for a user subscribed to an operator of a communication network, referred to as the nominal network, in order to access a communication service. The terminal is configured to access a first communication service via a first network access point. When the terminal is connected to a communication network other than the nominal network, referred to as a visited network, the terminal obtains data indicating whether the terminal can access a second communication service via said first network access point. In the case where the terminal cannot access the second communication service via the first network access point, the terminal determines a second network access point to be used by the terminal in order to access the second communication service and configures itself to be able to access the second communication service via the second network access point.
Abstract:
A method is described for determining a set of coding formats usable by a first terminal to establish communications with a second terminal. The method includes obtaining, from a server, a first set of coding formats permitted on the communication network, and associated with a type of access network and with a type of communication service, and obtaining a second set of coding formats supported by the terminal, a type of access network, and a type of communication service which are used by the terminal. A third set of coding formats are determined, corresponding to a set of coding formats supported by the terminal and permitted by the network with regard to the type of network access and to the type of communication service used by the terminal, and a setup message is transmitted to the second terminal including at least one coding format included in the third set when the third set is not empty.
Abstract:
One embodiment relates to a method for establishing communication between at least one calling terminal and one called terminal, implemented by the calling terminal. The method comprises detecting the activation by the calling terminal of a request to establish a communication with the called terminal, obtaining a first piece of communication context information related to the calling terminal, and obtaining at least a second piece of communication context information related to the called terminal. The method also comprises determining a communication service to use in order to establish the requested communication with the called terminal, the determining being carried out from at least the first piece of communication context information and the second piece of communication context information, and sending, to the called terminal, a request for communication according to the determined communication service.

Abstract:
One embodiment relates to a processing method for a communication intended for at least one receiving terminal. The method may comprise receiving a communication intended for the at least one receiving terminal and obtaining a certified identifier and an uncertified identifier of a sender of the communication, the identifiers being comprised in a signal message for the communication. The method may further comprise comparing the certified identifier with the uncertified identifier and processing the communication including a process for searching for the certified identifier in a list containing certified identifiers for senders associated with uncertified identifiers of those senders; the processing process being based on the results of the comparison process and the searching process.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for controlling the use of a data stream transmitted during a communication established between at least a transmitting device and a destination terminal. During a phase for negotiation of the parameters of the data stream of the communication, the method comprises a step of determining at least one rule for the use of the data stream of the communication and a step of inserting the at least one determined use rule into a message for negotiation of the parameters of the data stream of the communication, said message being intended to be transmitted to the destination terminal. The invention also relates to a corresponding device using said method.
Abstract:
A method is provided for notification of an event relating to execution of a procedure for processing a communication session to be supported by a communication device belonging to a set of devices associated with a user. The method includes: reception of a subscription request from a so-called subscriber terminal belonging to the aforementioned set, requesting subscription to an event notification service for at least one so-called event that may occur on a device in the set; reception of information indicating an occurrence of at least one so-called event on a device in the set, other than the subscriber terminal; and sending an event notification to the subscriber terminal, signalling the occurrence.
