  • Method to block split phone and gateway registration
    Patent number: 9438636
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a method and system to forcibly unregister and/or prevent registration of a gateway and/or other endpoint in a network region in response to a survivable gatekeeper servicing the network region becoming active.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 15, 2009
    Date of Patent: September 6, 2016
    Assignee: Avaya Inc.
    Inventors: Charles Farwell, Don Gillespie, Cliff Grimes, Scott Hendrick, Won Huh, Tim Kaye, Robert Mitchell, Ted Morrow, Tamara Jo Noirot, Nancy Schmidt, Rick Windhausen
  • Network synchronization over IP networks
    Patent number: 8238377
    Abstract: Network timing is derived from the PSTN and distributed through the network to gateways capable of deriving timing from the incoming UDP stream. The derived timing has the correct frequency for voice telephony without using external timing sources or extraneous hardware components. For example, a digital signal processor (DSP) can derive the timing from a timed TDM bus and distribute messages, such as IP messages, to other gateways or port networks. The other gateways and port networks use the incoming stream to extract the timing which is then used to time their TDM bus. The port networks and gateways can also distribute other streams to other gateways in a fan-out type of arrangement. This internally generated timing can be used, for example, for Circuit Emulated Services (CES).
