Abstract:
1. A method, comprising: receiving, at an application, a request to monitor and control communication sessions for a user; transmitting, by the application to one or more anchor point servers, a request to receive event information for the user's communication sessions from the one or more anchor point servers; determining an identity of a first anchor point server that will establish an anchor point in at least some of the user's communication sessions; establishing a communication link between the application and first anchor point server such that the application can receive event information about the user's communication sessions via the communication link; allowing the application to control at least some of the user's communication sessions via the first anchor point server; wherein the first anchor point server is authoritative for a first user that issued the request received at the application and wherein the identity of the first anchor point is determined by a client library, the client library servicing a plurality of applications; and updating a data entry in the client library to reflect that the first anchor point server is authoritative for the first user.
