Abstract

Measures, including methods, systems and non-transitory computer-readable storage mediums, for use in providing presence notifications on behalf of an endpoint that does not participate in presence notification are disclosed. In embodiments, the presence server receives notifications from a switch providing services to the non-participating endpoint relating to that endpoint's status from which presence can be determined. This information is processed using a dummy roster in order to send out notifications. The dummy roster may be created responsive to receiving a subscription to presence notifications for the non-participating endpoint.
