Method and apparatus for dynamic device pairing

摘要

A communication system, method, and components are described. Specifically, a communication system that supports dynamic device pairing of communication devices is described. Such pairing is accomplished using a feature or pairing server, without requiring modification to associated communication endpoints. Moreover, sequenced applications can be applied for all communication endpoints when pairing is in effect.

1. A communication system, comprising:
a first communication device; a second communication device; a pairing server, including:
a processor; anddata storage, including:
application programming executable by the processor to establish an application sequence for a first call with respect to a first communication device;provisioning data, wherein the provisioning data includes a record of a pairing between the first and second communication devices; a communication server, including:
a processor; anddata storage, including:
at least a first sequenced application, wherein the at least a first sequenced application is applied to the first call, wherein the first call includes the first communication device, wherein the first call is placed to the first communication device or from one of the first communication device and the second communication device, and wherein a media stream for the first call is provided to the second communication device.
