Abstract
A telephone networking system includes a database having executable programs which are equivalent to customer record programs used by a SCP. A switching device retrieves one of the executable programs from the database in response to data received by an input device, such as a telephone. The executable program is transmitted across the network to be executed by an edge device having the capability to store information and perform logical operations. For an telephone call, the executable program instructs the edge device to request and gather additional information. The additional information is then used by the executable program to generate the POTS number which is transmitted to the switching device to complete the call.
