ESTABLISHING MEDIA PATHS IN REAL TIME COMMUNICATIONS

摘要

A media path is established or reestablished between real time communication endpoints with one or more network interfaces (194) of different types connected to network access points (140) at different types of network segments (104, 106, 108) to implement handover of calls by collecting, by an RTC device (200), addresses (120) to a server (210) from access points (140) at the network segments (104, 106 and 108). Messages (164) are sent repeatedly by the RTC device (200) to an address (120) of the server (210) and, if not receiving a response, then other collected addresses (120) are tried until a response is received and signaling connectivity is recovered. After recovering signaling between the RTC device (200) and the server (210), a connection identity is presented to the server (210) for recovering the specific connection, after which a media path can be reestablished if needed.
