VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORK SERVICE FOR AN ADVANCED INTELLIGENT NETWORK

摘要

A method of providing virtual private network services includes receiving a number of dialed digits entered by a caller, where the dialed digits includes a called party number, recognizing the caller as a member of a subscriber to the virtual private network service, obtaining stored information on the subscriber, translating the called party number to a destination number, determining whether the call is within a set of predetermined block criteria, playing an appropriate announcement to the caller and disconnecting the call if the call is blocked, and routing the call to the destination number if the call is not blocked.
