INTERFACE FOR CONNECTING A NETWORK ELEMENT TO A SESSION INITIATION PROTOCOL APPLICATION SERVER
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method for connecting network resources of a first network to network resources of a second network that is different from the first network, comprising the acts of:
- receiving a first message having a first protocol format from a first network resource of the first network;
in response to the first message, dynamically generating a second message having a web service request format; and
communicating the second message to a second network resource of the second network for conversion into a third message having a second protocol format different from the first protocol format.

Abstract
Systems (100) and methods (500) for connecting network resources of a first network (116) to network resources of a second network (118). The second network is different from the first network. The methods involve receiving a first message (302, 402) from a first network resource (106) of the first network. The first message has a first protocol format. In response to the first message, a second message (308, 408) having a web service request format is dynamically generated. The second message is communicated to a third network resource (112) of the second network for conversion into a third message (314). The third message has a second protocol format different from the first protocol format. The first network can be an SIP network. The second network can be an SS7 network.

11. A network interface, comprising:
at least one processing device configured to receive a first message having a first protocol format from a first network resource of a first network, dynamically generate a second message having a web service request format in response to the first message, and communicate the second message to a second network resource of a second network for conversion into a third message having a second protocol format different from the first protocol format. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A network interface, comprising:
-
at least one processing device configured to receive a first message having a session initiation protocol format from an application server of a first network, dynamically generate a second message having a web service request format in response to the first message, and communicate the second message to a second network resource of a web service system for conversion into a third message having a Signaling System Number Seven protocol format; wherein the second message is dynamically generated in an Extensible Markup Language format.
