Abstract: A method and system for processing of telephonic voice over a data network, such as the Internet, which includes a signaling protocol with little overhead and allows for dynamic connections to a host. The system uses a signaling protocol which creates an ad hoc connection to the host which reduces the per packet information necessary to conduct the communication. The system provides for quick and efficient establishment of communications from multiple remote locations to a central host. Each remote location may only connect to the host or a redundant host.
