This invention relates to a node for providing peer-to-peer services in a communication network, the network comprising of at least one further node. The node comprises; an input arranged to receive at least one SIP peer-to-peer request; an output arranged to transmit the at least one SIP peer-to-peer request from the node to at least one of the at least one further nodes; and wherein the input is further arranged to receive at least one SIP peer-to-peer response from the at least one further node and the output is arranged to transmit the SIP peer-to-peer response.

Peer to peer services in a wireless communication network

A method for managing event-based information. The method includes receiving event-based information originating from a plurality of information suppliers, and linking same type of event-based information originating from different information suppliers together by allocating a common uniform resource identifier to information modules of similar type.

Orthogonal subscription

An apparatus may include a processor configured to maintain at least a portion of a distributed database. The distributed database may comprise a plurality of private address data. The processor may be further configured to receive a request from a first terminal device seeking to establish a communications session with a second terminal device. The processor may be additionally configured to search the distributed database for a private address for the second terminal device. The processor may also be configured instruct a network address translating (NAT) apparatus to create a binding between the private address for the second terminal device and a public address accessible by the first terminal device. In some embodiments, the processor may be further configured to facilitate establishing a communications session between the first and second terminal devices based upon the binding between the private address and the public address.

Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for facilitating establishing a communications session

The invention relates to a method for the routing of multimedia communication related signaling in a communication system. In the method a signaling message is received to a first network node. The signaling message provides an identity associated with a user. A hash key is computed from the identity. The hash key is matched to a number of key ranges, each key range being associated with a network node. A second network node is determined by detecting that said hash key belongs to the key range of the second network node. A signaling message is provided to the second network node. Subscriber data associated with the identity is obtained in from the second network node. The signaling message is processed in the second network node based on information in the subscriber data.
