Abstract
A system processes calls in an Internet Protocol (IP) communications network. The system includes a lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) database, an LDAP sever, and a redirect server. The LDAP database stores a group of IP communication service attributes. The LDAP server receive a request for a database update, extracts the group of IP communication service attributes from the LDAP database, and transfers the extracted IP communication service attributes to the redirect server. The redirect server stores the extracted IP communication service attributes and processes a call using the stored IP communication service attributes.

15. A method for updating a redirect server storing a plurality of records, comprising:
-
sending a request for a database update to a lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) server, the LDAP server being associated with a database configured to store a plurality of records that corresponds to the plurality of records stored by the redirect server;
comparing each of the plurality of records stored at the redirect server to the corresponding records stored in the database;
extracting records from the database that differ from the corresponding records stored at the redirect server;
transferring the extracted records to the redirect server; and
storing the extracted records at the redirect server.

24. A system for updating a redirect server configured to store a first configuration of records relating to processing calls in an Internet Protocol (IP) communications network, comprising:
-
a lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) database configured to store a second configuration of records corresponding to the first configuration of records; and
an LDAP server configured to;
receive a request for a partial database update from the redirect server, compare the first configuration of records to the second configuration of records, extract records from the second configuration that differ from the corresponding records in the first configuration, and transfer the extracted records to the redirect server for storage.
