Systems and methods for a device portal management system that stores discovery data for multiple computing devices are described. The device portal management system may store first discovery data for a first computing device and second discovery data from a second computing device. A user associated with the first computing device and the second computing device may access the discovery data via the device portal management system. The user may further configure the first computing device and the second computing device via the device portal management system.

A local network call handling device is configured to establish multiple concurrent call sessions between local network end devices and an external network. When a prioritized end device attempts to establish a call session, the call handling device may initially determine if a first call session identifier is available. If so, the call session can be established using that first identifier. If the first identifier is in use for a call session of another end device, the call handling device may either use a different call session identifier for the prioritized end device session or may drop a pre-existing call session to free an identifier for use in connection with the prioritized end device.
