A central routing function (CRF) platform. The CRF platform comprises at least one processor; a non-transitory memory communicatively coupled to the at least one processor that stores a plurality of prioritized international call route lists where each prioritized international call route list associates alternative international communication service carrier routes in a prioritized order with an international telephone number; and a call process application stored in the non-transitory memory that, when executed by the processor, receives a request for a prioritized international call route list from a network element, where the request comprises an international telephone number, pads out the international telephone number received from the network element to form a 15-digit number, looks up a prioritized international route list using the 15-digit number in the non-transitory memory, and sends the prioritized international route list to the network element.

International call route generation based on analyzing minutes of use key performance indicators (KPIs) associated with an international communication service carrier

A central routing function (CRF) comprises back-to-back user agent application that receives a request for a call route list from a network element, wherein the request comprises a destination telephone number, a list generation application that obtains the call route list from the prioritized call route lists stored in the non-transitory memory based on the destination telephone number, wherein the call route list comprises a plurality of addresses, a pseudo domain name service (DNS) application that translates each address in the call route list into an Internet Protocol (IP) address, in which the back-to-back user agent application attempts to terminate a call using the IP address in the call route list, and in which the CRF platform is implemented in a software container.

International call route generation based on analyzing minutes of use key performance indicators (KPIS) associated with an international communication service carrier

A method of providing prioritized call route lists to network elements of communication service carriers. The method comprises building prioritized route lists by a centralized routing function (CRF) platform by processing prioritized route list transactions built by a route generation application based on key performance indicators, receiving a request for a prioritized route list by the CRF platform from a session border controller (SBC) controlled by the first communication service carrier, where the request comprises an identity of a second communication service carrier and a destination telephone number, determining a subscriber service level associated with the second communication service carrier by the CRF platform, based on the determined subscriber service level, looking up a prioritized route list by the CRF platform based on the destination telephone number, and sending the looked up prioritized route list by the CRF platform to the SBC.

Call route generation for other communication service carriers as a service

A central routing function (CRF) platform. The CRF platform comprises a processor, a memory that stores prioritized call route lists, and an application stored in the memory. When executed by the processor the application receives a request for a prioritized call route list from a network element, where the request comprises an indication of a location of a call originator of a call and a destination telephone number, determines a call type of the call, selects a prioritized call route list associated with the destination telephone number from the non-transitory memory based on the call type, determines that a percent allocation rule applies to the call, based on the percent allocation rule, removes the first priority call route from the selected prioritized call route list to make an adapted prioritized call route list, and sends the adapted prioritized call route list to the network element.

Domestic long-distance call route generation

A communication system to route telephony signals based on OLI. The communication system includes a telephony signaling system and a call processing system. The telephony signaling system receives a first signaling message over an originating line indicating a telephony number and in response, generates and transfers a second signaling message indicating the telephony number and the OLI for delivery to a call processing system. The call processing system receives the second signaling message, and in response, processes the telephony number to identify a RespOrg. The call processing system processes the OLI based on the identified RespOrg to select a CIC. Call processing system generates and transfers a third signaling message indicating the selected CIC for delivery to the telephony signaling system. The telephony signaling system receives the third signaling message, and in response, generates and transfers a fourth signaling message for delivery to a telephony network based on the selected CIC.

Communication system to route telephony signals based on originating line information

A method for operating a communication system is provided. The method includes monitoring traffic within a communication network to determine a traffic volume, and determining a routing table update rate based on the traffic volume. The method also includes receiving a routing table update, and updating a routing table using the routing table update at a time based on the routing table update rate.
