Abstract: Managing multimedia sessions including surveying anomalies representing illicit uses of a determined signalling protocol, determining reactions in relation to the identified anomaly, collecting all requests exchanged between a client terminal and a proxy server, analysing collected requests for detection of anomalies, through the use of a plurality of indicators each associated with one of the identified anomalies, and in the event of the detection of at least one anomaly, triggering by the proxy server of a reaction corresponding to the detected anomaly, the reaction including real-time action during the communication concerned by the message containing the anomaly. The method therefore allows the real-time detection and filtering of hidden channels utilised in a signalling protocol such as SIP.

Abstract: A method for determining deteriorations in the quality of a mobile or fixed telephony network on a day D (or at any other frequency, for example hour or minute) by implementing one or more items of special equipment in the network, wherein the method implements at least one measurement means and at least one calculation means, characterised in that the method including at least: a stage for selecting (S1) the Usage Messages (MU) (1) corresponding to each call of the day D (2a) or at any other frequency (for example hour or minute); a stage for characterising (S2) groups of UMs corresponding to the callbacks from among the UMs of the calls selected (4); a stage for filtering (S3a) the UMs in order to separate the UMs called “incoming-outgoing” (5), the UMs called “return incoming” (6) and the UMs called “return outgoing” (7); a stage for calculating at least one indicator (S7) by grouping the UMs (15) as a function of several common data fields; a stage for calculating the callback rates for an indicator; a st

Abstract: The method allows communications means to be listed, for end-to-end broadcasting of information other than that required for managing multimedia sessions. After a selection (52) of communications channels through an infrastructure for managing multimedia sessions, the method provides via the application level, the establishment of a communication specifically using the selected communications channel(s). Purely descriptive/explanatory fields of characteristics of a session may be selected at an application level and used for conveying additional information in addition to the signaling protocol. It is thus possible to change the conditions for consuming/using the multimedia contents or the established flux. Instantaneity of the services and service use conditions may be obtained by requesting for example renegotiation in real time of a service when the conditions of use are modified (iconification of a TV/Video streaming flux in order to reduce the bandwidth used).
