Abstract:
Communications methods, apparatus and systems for conserving Media Resource Function (MRF) resources by identifying streams of sessions, for example, non-real time streams, which can be routed to avoid use of MRF resources. An exemplary embodiment includes receiving by a SBC a session initiation request from a first device directed to a second device for a session including a plurality of streams; establishing a plurality of routes to the second device, said routes including at least a first route and a second route, the first route not including a media content processing entity and the second route including a media content processing entity; identifying from the streams for the session a first set of streams; said first set of streams including one or more streams that do not require media content processing; and routing one or more of the streams of the first set of streams via the first route.

Claim (Index 11):
A communication system comprising:\n a first Session Border Controller, said first Session Border Controller (SBC) including one or more processors configured to operate the first SBC to perform the following operations:\n receive a first session initiation request from a first device directed to a second device for a session including a plurality of streams, said first session initiation request including information describing the plurality of streams included in the session; \n determine from the plurality of streams for the session a first set of streams, said first set of streams including one or more streams that do not require media content processing, said determining the first set of streams being based on the information describing the plurality of streams included in the session; \n establish a plurality of routes to the second device, said plurality of routes including at least a first route and a second route, the first route not including a media content processing entity and the second route including a media content processing entity, said first and said second routes both including said first SBC and a second SBC; and \n route one or more of the streams of the first set of streams of the session to the second device via the first route.
