SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ASSISTING IN CONTROLLING REAL-TIME TRANSPORT PROTOCOL FLOW THROUGH MULTIPLE NETWORKS VIA MEDIA FLOW ROUTING

摘要

A system and method for assisting in controlling real-time transport protocol flow through multiple networks via media flow routing is disclosed. The system utilizes a first computer and a second computer connected to the first computer, via a group of associated computers, wherein each of the first computer, second computer, and group of associated computers comprise a transceiver, a memory, and a processor. The processor is configured by the memory to perform the functions of performing an inbound screen on route information received from the first computer, to determine if the received route information should be discarded; if the route information is not discarded, comparing the received and screened route information to a local policy defined within the second computer; performing an outbound screen on the received and screened information prior to transmitting the received and screened route information to the first computer; and selecting a primary route from the received route information and local route information in accordance with the local policy, wherein the primary route is a path from the second computer to the first computer via the group of associated computers.
