METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR AUTOMATIC TIME-BASED ROUTING RULE ADMINISTRATION

摘要

Methods and systems for automatic time-based routing rule administration are disclosed. According to one method, routing data for routing messages between a source address and a destination address is stored in a network routing table. A time period is associated with the routing data based on agreements between service providers. Messages are routed between the service providers during the time period. Outside of the time period, routing of messages between the source address and the destination address is automatically inhibited.
