The telecommunication network 20 is configured such that, in use, on initiation of the telecommunication device 11, such as an Internet Protocol telephone or video telephone, a telecommunication device identifier to identify the telecommunication device 11 is output to a computer system or provisioning server 41 via the Internet 10. The computer system 41 receives the telecommunication device identifier and, in response, outputs to the telecommunication device 11, via the Internet 10, an indication of a telecommunication device control system or PBX 12 for use by the telecommunication device 11. The telecommunication device control system 12 is subsequently usable by the telecommunication device 11 to make and control communication connections between the telecommunication device 11 and other telecommunication devices.

Abstract: A computer system splits data to be transmitted into a plurality of reliable connections which are multiplexed through a smaller number of unacknowledged connections, such as connections that do not require acknowledgment and which may be VPN tunnels. A receiver then demultiplexes data received to obtain data flows over the reliable connections and transmits separate acknowledgements for each reliable connection. The computer system demultiplexes the acknowledgments and provides them to the corresponding reliable connections, which then retransmit any unacknowledged data. Delivery controllers executing on the computer system may be coupled to corresponding controllers executing on the receiver, with traffic between the delivery controllers (payload and acknowledgments) being multiplexed over one or more unacknowledged connections. In some embodiments, acknowledgments may be transmitted over a connection that is not multiplexed over the unacknowledged connections.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for generating and using multicast transaction messages in an exchange system are described. A unicast transaction message is received, e.g., by a gateway device which interacts with devices outside the exchange system. The gateway device generates a multicast transaction message from the unicast transaction message and sends transmits it to other devices in the exchange system. A multicast transaction message is received by the gateway device. The gateway generates a unicast transaction response message and sends it to the trader system which sent the transaction message to which the response corresponds. Traders are permitted to include information in a transaction message field which is not interpreted or used by the exchange to control message processing. The information in the uninterpreted field is echoed back to the trader system and allows the trader to correlate the transaction messages to one or more clients or to perform other operations.
