Routing a communication from a first computer system, through a network, to a second computer system, may include determining whether a route through the network meets a metric, and assigning an output address of the first computer system and an input address of the second computer system based on whether the route meets the metric. The communication may be sent from the output address of the first computer system and received at the input address of the second computer system.

Selecting routes through a network

A method of monitoring quality of a telephone call transmitted over a network includes obtaining a metric associated with the telephone call, where the metric is based on data packets that are transmitted during the telephone call, and determining whether the metric exceeds a threshold. Plural metrics may be obtained and the method may determine whether the plural metrics exceed corresponding thresholds.

Call quality monitoring

A method includes sending a request for network services to plural devices, where the request identifies the network services using a self-describing data structure, and receiving a response to the request from at least one device, where the response identifies which of the network services are supported by the at least one device.

Discovering network services

A method performed by a device adapted for communication over a network includes establishing a presence on the network, obtaining default configuration information for the device via the network, the default configuration information identifying a service on the network, receiving a request for validation information from the service, providing the validation information to the service, the service generating device-specific information in response to the validation information, and obtaining the device-specific information.
