SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TRANSLATING MULTIPLE CLIENT PROTOCOLS VIA A CONFERENCE BRIDGE
First Claim
1. A method for providing communications between different real-time communication protocol-using endpoints by a single integrated device installed as an Ethernet adapter establishing a video conference bridge, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a single integrated device installed as an Ethernet adapter in a computing device, a first request from a first client to establish a real-time communication session with a second client, the first request in a first real-time communication protocol;
identifying, by the single integrated device, that the first client and second client use different real-time communication protocols;
initiating, by a conference bridge of the single integrated device, a conference session for the first client and second client, responsive to the identification; and
establishing, by the conference bridge, a first real-time communication session with the first client in the first real-time communication protocol and a second real-time communication session with the second client in a second real-time communication protocol of the second client.

Abstract
The present application is directed towards systems and methods for providing communications between different real-time communication protocol-using endpoints by a single integrated device installed as an Ethernet adapter establishing a video conference bridge. A single integrated device installed as an Ethernet adapter in a computing device receives a first request from a first client to establish a real-time communication session with a second client, the first request in a first real-time communication protocol, and identifies that the first client and second client use different real-time communication protocols. A conference bridge of the single integrated device initiates a conference session for the first client and second client, responsive to the identification. The conference bridge establishes a first real-time communication session with the first client in the first real-time communication protocol and a second real-time communication session with the second client in a second real-time communication protocol of the second client.

14. A system for providing communications between different protocol-using endpoints by a single integrated device installed as an Ethernet adapter in a computing device establishing a video conference bridge, comprising:
-
a single integrated device installed as an Ethernet adapter in a computing device configured to; receive a first request from a first client to establish a real-time communication session with a second client, the first request in a first real-time communication protocol, identify that the first client and second client use different real-time communication protocols, receive a first response from the second client, the first response in the second real-time communication protocol; a video conference bridge of the single integrated device configured to; initiate a conference session for the first client and second client, responsive to the identification, and establish a first real-time communication session with the first client in the first real-time communication protocol and a second real-time communication session with the second client in a second real-time communication protocol of the second client. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)
