Abstract: Methods and apparatus for routing off-net Short Message Service (SMS) messages between a first service provider network and a terminating service provider network are provided herein. In some embodiments, the method includes receiving a first SMS message including a first identifier associated with a first subscriber of the first service provider network stored in a source address field directed to a second identifier, determining that the second identifier is associated with a second subscriber of the terminating service provider network, associating the first identifier with a local reply identifier in a mapping database, replacing the first identifier in the source address field with the local reply identifier, and routing the first SMS message including the local reply identifier stored in the source address field to the second identifier.

Abstract: A method of operating an internet-based telephony system (20) comprises determining that a telephony device (30) associated with a customer has access to service to the internet-based telephony system (20); and sending a location update signal to a public land mobile network (32) associated with the customer. The location update signal is configured to include an identification of the internet-based telephony system (20) as a network visited by the telephony device (30) associated with the customer. Upon the internet-based telephony system (20) receiving from the public land mobile network (32) an indication of an incoming communication directed to a called number associated with an account of the customer which includes the telephony device (30), the method further includes the internet-based telephony system (20) providing the public land mobile network (32) with a roaming number for the telephony device, and upon receiving the incoming communication and the roaming number from the public land mobile network (32), routing the communication through the Internet to a device included in the customer's account.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for routing Application Programming Interface (API) calls from a partner entity to a telephony service provider (TSP) network are provided herein. In some embodiments, a method for routing API calls may include receiving a first message including an API call and a partner API key used to authenticate the partner entity on the TSP network to access a partner API layer disposed on the TSP network, extracting the partner API key from the first message, performing an authentication process to authenticate an identity of the partner entity using at least the extracted partner API key, and routing the first message based on results of the authentication process. In some embodiments, the first message is routed to the partner API layer disposed on the TSP network when the identity of the partner entity is authenticated.
