1. A method for sweeping an active session existing between a first endpoint and a second endpoint from the first endpoint to a third endpoint, the method comprising:

  • sending, by the third endpoint, a peer-to-peer go away message directly to the first endpoint;

    receiving, by the third endpoint, session information from the first endpoint corresponding to the active session occurring between the first and second endpoints, wherein the session information includes information needed by the third endpoint to participate in the active session with the second endpoint, and wherein the session information is received via peer-to-peer messaging between the first endpoint and the third endpoint;

    sending, by the third endpoint, one or more responses to the first endpoint regarding the session information, wherein the one or more responses are sent within a time window, and wherein the time window is dynamically created based on the amount of session information received;

    sending, by the third endpoint, a peer-to-peer update message directly to the second endpoint, wherein the update message instructs the second endpoint to transition the active session from the first endpoint to the third endpoint and includes information needed for the second endpoint to transition the active session from the first endpoint to the third endpoint; and

    receiving, by the third endpoint, a peer-to-peer response to the update message from the second endpoint, wherein the response includes information needed for the third endpoint to participate in the active session with the second endpoint.
