System, method, and apparatus for gatekeeper networking in communication system

摘要

A method for gatekeeper networking includes receiving a registration message from a wireless platform serving a mobile station at a home gatekeeper of the mobile station, and instructing a telephone subsystem to forward a call directed at a telephonic device associated with the mobile station to one of the home gatekeeper of the mobile station and a roaming number assigned to the mobile station. The method also includes receiving a call setup message at the home gatekeeper of the mobile station, the call setup message representing a call involving the mobile station. The method further includes identifying a destination of the call using the call setup message, identifying a routing target associated with the destination, and communicating the call setup message to the routing target when the home gatekeeper of the mobile station is not a home gatekeeper of the destination.
