    摘要: A server system including a plurality of servers achieves redundancy on a per process basis. A first server and a second server execute a plurality of processes in parallel. Processes (B1-1, B2-1, and Br-1) in the first server are active processes, and processes (B1-2, B2-2, and Br-2) in the second server are standby processes. The active process periodically transmits an operation notification notifying normal operation, to the standby process. When no longer receiving an operation notification from the active process, the standby process switches an operation mode of the standby process from a standby mode to an active mode and starts provision of service of the process. The process switching is performed on a per process basis instead of on a per server basis.

    摘要: A method is provided. The method includes receiving, at an arbitration server, a call setup request, the call setup request including at least an indication of an application used to send the call setup request and at least one other indication of a call type of a call associated with the call setup request. The method includes retrieving, from a configuration database, a call priority associated with the call set up request. The method includes determining that the user device is currently engaged in an ongoing call associated with an ongoing call priority. The method includes determining that the call setup request is of higher priority than the ongoing call based on the ongoing call priority. The method includes when the call setup request is of higher priority, terminating the ongoing call and completing the setup of the call associated with the call setup request.

    摘要: A terminal device 1 collects RTP information related to a call and transmits the RTP information to a CSCF 3. The CSCF 3 collects, from a plurality of SIP packets related to the call, the address of an edge router 2 that has handled the plurality of SIP packets, the address of an SBC 4 that has handled the plurality of SIP packets, and the domain name of an operator's network 5 that has handled the plurality of SIP packets, and stores in a call information list, for each call, the collected information in association with the RTP information transmitted from the terminal device 1. Then, the CSCF 3 identifies a plurality of problem-occurring calls using the RTP information, and determines a faulty portion based on a bias in the quantitative trend of the count of each of the edge router 2 addresses, the count of each of the SBC 4 addresses, and the count of each of the operator's network 5 domains.

    摘要: Techniques for allowing access based online charging in cases of multiple user agents (multi-UAs) scenarios where the instances are registered to different telephony application servers (TASs) are discussed herein. For example, a user device may support a native number and multiple virtual numbers linked via a user account. When servicing a call, the user device may determine a served number to service the call from. If the served number is not the native number but a virtual number, the native-line server may handle the call session, but the online charging session will be handled by the virtual-line server. The native-line server may use session initiation protocol (SIP) information to send updated information for charging parameters to the virtual-line server, including network access transfer for accuracy in online charging logic.
