Digital recording of IP based distributed switching platform
DCFirst Claim
1. A method for recording at least a portion of one or more of a plurality of IP data sessions, each being between at least a first communication device and a second communication device through a network by a recording device, comprising for each IP data session:
- initiating the data session by said first communication device with said second communication device;
implementing the data session as a conference call through a conference controller such that said first and second communication devices are connected, respectively, as first and second participants;
using the conference controller, selectively entering the recording device to said conference call as an additional participant, wherein the recording device is distinct from the first and second communication devices yet receives as the additional participant at least the portion of the IP data session from each of the first and second participants; and
recording at least the portion of the IP data session received as the additional participant of said conference call using said recording device.

Abstract
A system and method for recording and/or otherwise monitoring IP multimedia sessions. The present invention features a recording and/or monitoring device, referred to hereinafter as “a recording device” for the purposes of clarity only and without any intention of being limiting. The recording device is a participant in the IP multimedia session, although preferably the recording device only receives data for recording and/or otherwise monitoring the session. Therefore, the IP multimedia session is preferably a multi-user session, such as a “conference call” for example, even if data is being provided for recording from only one of the participants in the session.
