Abstract: Techniques and systems for inter-working between different protocols are disclosed. In one embodiment, a protocol inter-working system can include: (i) a first server that can connect to a first gateway, where the first server and the first gateway can operate in a first protocol; (ii) a second server that can connect to a second gateway, where the second server and the second can operate in a second protocol; and (iii) a controller that can connect to the first and second gateways, where the controller can translate a first indicator in the first protocol to a second indicator in the second protocol. The first and second protocols can include H.323 and session initiation protocol (SIP), for example. The first and second indicators can each include a message waiting indicator (MWI), for example.

Abstract: Methods and systems for optimizing interworking between various communication protocols are provided. The method comprises establishing a communication connection between a first endpoint and a second endpoint, wherein the first endpoint communicates over a first communication protocol and wherein the second endpoint communicates over a second communication protocol; and monitoring communication between the first and second endpoints such that communication messages that are transmitted by the first endpoint over the first communication protocol can be mapped to counterpart messages to be received by the second endpoint over the second communication protocol, and communication messages that are transmitted by the second endpoint over the second communication protocol can be mapped to counterpart messages received by the first endpoint over the first communication protocol.
