In a method and system for managing at least one media stream from a media source to a media destination, where the media stream passes through at least one network, providing a media manager for managing the media stream and the at least one network for performing at least one of the management functions bandwidth management, media hairpin detection, media path control, equal access or preventing media backhauling. In the media manager at least one of the media stream information types media routing, receive transport address, routed receive transport address, source network, destination network, media stream identifier, or bandwidth of the media stream is stored for a time period during which the media stream exists in the at least one network. The media manager uses at least one of the stored information types for performing at least one of the management functions.

Media stream management

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a media signal associated with a session established based on a session request. The session request is defined at a session exchange device associated with a media over internet protocol (MoIP) network. The method also includes sending a portion of the media signal to a dual-tone multi-frequency (DTMF) analysis module during a sampling time period after a non-sampling time period.

Methods and apparatus for dual-tone multi-frequency signal analysis within a media over internet protocol network

In one embodiment, a method includes associating a pluggable policy module with an application when executing at a session layer device within a session over Internet Protocol (SoIP) network. A policy service request can be received at the session layer device from an endpoint in communication with the session layer device. The method also includes defining a session control protocol signal based on a policy value sent to the application from the pluggable policy module. The policy value can be calculated at the pluggable policy module based on an input value associated with the policy service request.
