System and method for implementing a session initiation protocol feature

摘要

A method for implementing a SIP feature includes, in particular embodiments, establishing a communication session via a communications platform between a first and second user and receiving a request from a third user to join the communication session. The second and third users are from a plurality of users using a shared line. The method further includes integrating communications of the third user into the communication session. In particular embodiments the method includes establishing a communication session between a first and second user via a communications platform. The method also includes receiving a select request that locks the communication session so that a third user cannot resume the communication session with the first user. In particular embodiments the method includes receiving a request from a first user of a shared line to enable a privacy feature that reduces call information generated by the communications platform in remote state notifications.

主权项

1. A method for implementing a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) feature, comprising:
providing a shared line implementing a shared line protocol to serve a plurality of endpoints coupled to the shared line, the plurality of endpoints comprising at least a first endpoint and a second endpoint; establishing a SIP communication session via a communications platform, the communication session being between the first endpoint and at least one other endpoint, the communications platform implementing the shared line protocol to serve the plurality of endpoints using the single shared line; after establishing the SIP communication session between the first endpoint and the at least one other endpoint, receiving a request to place the SIP communication session on hold, the request identifying at that a second endpoint may pick-up the SIP communication session; and while the SIP communication session is on hold, enabling the second endpoint to pick-up the SIP communication session while locking the SIP communication session to prevent endpoints other than the first endpoint and the second endpoint from picking-up the SIP communication session.
