Abstract:
The present invention relates to communications methods, apparatus and systems for correlating registrations with subsequent requests for service, e.g., calling or other services or active calls. In one embodiment requests and corresponding registrations are determined through a method of operating a session border controller (SBC) which includes the assignment of a registration instance identifier by the SBC to each registration request, sending a first message including the registration instance identifier to each user device in response to each registration request, and determining if subsequent requests correspond to the registration instance based on the registration instance identifier being included in subsequent requests. In another embodiment, after a SBC switchover, the new SBC forks a mid-dialog request received for a first call to all active registered devices having the same address of record and determines based on the responses which device has an active dialog corresponding to the first call.

Claim (Index 20):
A non-transitory computer readable medium including a first set of computer executable instructions which when executed by a processor of a first communications device cause the first device to perform the steps of:\n receiving, at the first device from a second communications device performing a SIP registration service, a first Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) message destined for a first user equipment device; generating, at the first communications device, a second SIP message based on the first SIP message, said generating comprising including first registration instance identification information in the second SIP message, said first registration instance identification information for inclusion in one or more subsequent SIP messages sent from said first user equipment device to said first communications device; and transmitting, from the first communications device, said second SIP message to said first user equipment device.
