Network system for routing calls

摘要

Network to which, via nodes (N1...N5), work stations (T1...T5) are connected. The network server comprises a routing table. The routing information can be adjusted by network users (U1...U3). According to the routing table, calls for U1 will be routed to node N3, by which user U1 is attainable via terminal T3. Likewise, calls for U2 arrive at terminal T1, where U2 has chosen residence and calls for U3 at terminal T5. Rerouting of calls, not directed to a user, but to a terminal ("anonymous user"), takes place in the same way and with the same routing table. U1 for example, can pass on that all calls to T3 have to be routed to T2, or rather to node N2. U1 continues to receive calls that are addressed to itself at T3. By using the same database and control for both routing of a call directed to a user as for routing a call directed to a terminal, no system conflicts arise.
