A streaming orchestrator may monitor the quality of video being delivered to a home or other building. If the streaming orchestrator determines that additional performance is needed, it may create an additional User Plane Gateway in the virtual “white box” environment residing in the customer premises. The streaming orchestrator may instruct gNodeBs to continue to route traffic back to the central core functions or to route traffic to local user plane gateways which transmit video streams to the Internet via localized high-speed connections.

A system and method are provided for provisioning code snippets for programming a content delivery network. The method includes receiving a first client code snippet from a first client. The first client code snippet includes identity information of origin servers, standard responses for network requests, and configuration parameters to configure programmable content delivery nodes to respond to the one or more network requests. The method also includes publishing the first client code snippet to a snippet library, and indexing the first client code snippet in the snippet library. The method also includes receiving, from a second client, a request for a second client code snippet. The method also includes selecting a subset of client code snippets stored in the snippet library. The method also includes rendering identification information for the subset of client code snippets, and outputting a selected client code snippet from the subset of client code snippets.

Methods, systems, and computer readable media described herein can be operable to facilitate an IGMP fastleave using a listener reference count. A gateway proxy saves each listener for every specific multicast group, thus the gateway knows if a listener is the last one in the group when it receives a leave report from a listener. The gateway leaves the group immediately without sending specific query if the leave report comes from the last listener of the current group, thereby significantly reducing the leave latency. Otherwise, the standard procedure wins, and the gateway sends out a specific query when the leave report is not from the last listener.

One or more endpoints may be registered with a gateway at a premises. The gateway may include local physical interfaces for communicating with a first subset of the endpoints. The gateway may further include Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) proxy servers for communicating with a second subset of the endpoints. Incoming communications to the premises may be routed by the gateway to one or more of the endpoints via the local physical interfaces or the SIP proxy servers. One or more endpoints may initiate outgoing communications via the local physical interfaces or the SIP proxy servers.

An apparatus includes a transceiver to support a media flow involving a user equipment and an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network that are connected via a media path that traverses a first realm associated with the user equipment, a second realm, and a third realm associated with the IMS network. In some cases, the apparatus includes a processor to establish a first context to perform interworking between the first realm and the second realm in response to an offer message from the user equipment. The processor later de-allocates the first context in response to receiving an answer message indicating that a second context performs interworking between the first realm and the third realm. In other cases, the processor bypasses allocation of a context to perform interworking between the second realm and the third realm in response to an indication that the media flow is anchored on an incoming side.

A method for performing a conference communication by an intelligent is disclosed. The method includes sending, via a conference link to a conference server, an access request specifying a mapping character string and an identifier of an operating system running in the intelligent terminal; receiving a protocol string from the conference server generated according to the mapping character string and the identifier in the access request, the protocol string comprising a conference attendance credential; automatically initiating an instant message (IM) client in the operating system according to the protocol string; and sending an IM user identifier associated with the intelligent terminal and the conference attendance credential to the conference server to add the IM user identifier to a temporary IM user group corresponding to the conference attendance credential and establishing an Internet channel for the temporary IM user group to perform the conference communication via the IM client.

There is provided a method, and application server for enabling recording of communications transmitted via an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem Network. A call request is received from a first party to call a second party and a database, comprising a plurality of subscriber profiles, is queried to obtain subscriber configuration data relating to at least one of the first party and the second party. Based on the subscriber configuration data, media streams are caused to be transmitted between the first party and a Media Resource Function, between the second party and the Media Resource Function, and from the Media Resource Function to a recording device to record at least part of a call between the first and second party. A communications network and a user device are also provided.

A method includes, at a media bridge configured to distribute a plurality of media streams among a plurality of client devices connected to the media bridge over a network, receiving the plurality of media streams from the plurality of client devices via the media bridge. The media bridge connects the plurality of client devices. The method further includes assigning a pair of names for each of the plurality of media streams. The pair of names include a contribution name and a distribution name. The method further includes presenting a first list to the plurality of client devices. The first list including a plurality of the distribution names for the plurality of media streams received from the plurality of client devices. The method further includes providing an indication of a current active speaker within the plurality of media streams via a signaling process.

A method, operational at a device, includes receiving at least one packet belonging to a first set of packets of a packet flow marked with an identification value, determining that the at least one packet is marked with the identification value, determining to change a quality of service (QoS) treatment of packets belonging to the first set of packets marked with the identification value that are yet to be received, and sending a request to change the QoS treatment of packets belonging to the first set of packets marked with the identification value that are yet to be received to trigger a different QoS treatment of packets within the packet flow, responsive to determining to change the QoS treatment. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
