License modes in call processing
First Claim
1. A method for protecting actuation of a computational component, comprising:
- providing a computational component operating in a first licensing mode;
identifying the occurrence of a predetermined licensing event;
in response to the identifying step, causing the computational component to operate in a second licensing mode, the second licensing mode being different from the first licensing mode, wherein in each of the first and second licensing modes a common set of features performed by the computational component are operational.

Abstract
The present invention is directed to a system, comprising: a license manager 113 operable to identify the occurrence of a predetermined licensing event and a mode setting agent 124 operable to change, in response to the occurrence of the predetermined licensing event (e.g., an absence of a valid license), from a first licensing mode (e.g., a license normal mode) to a second licensing mode (e.g., a license error mode). The second licensing mode is different from the first licensing mode. In each of the first and second licensing modes a common set of features performed by the telecommunication application (e.g., call processing functions) are operational.

15. A system for protecting actuation of a computational component, comprising:
-
a computational component operating in a first licensing mode;
means for identifying the occurrence of a predetermined licensing event;
mode setting means for changing, in response to the occurrence of the predetermined licensing event, the first licensing mode to a second licensing mode, the second licensing mode being different from the first licensing mode, wherein in each of the first and second licensing modes a common set of features performed by the computational component are operational. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
