- deploying an enterprise gateway server in an enterprise network, the enterprise gateway server supporting call routing between a private branch exchange deployed in the enterprise network and a public cellular network;
receiving, from a mobile switching network, by a carrier gateway server deployed in the public cellular network, a call origination request of a call destined to a mobile station of a member associated with the enterprise network;
querying, by the carrier gateway server, the enterprise gateway server for a policy;
storing, by the enterprise gateway server, the received call information including the final destination information,returning, by the enterprise gateway server, the policy associated with the member;
providing, by the enterprise gateway server, routing information to the carrier gateway server, the routing information comprising information for routing the call to the enterprise gateway server via the private branch exchange;
transmitting from the carrier gateway server to the mobile switching network, routing information;
routing, by the mobile switching network, the call to the private branch exchange,routing, by the private branch exchange, the call to the enterprise gateway server,routing, by the enterprise gateway server, the call to a final destination via the private branch exchange.

3. A system for processing a call in a communication network, the system comprising:
-
a cellular network including a mobile switching network and a carrier gateway server; and an enterprise network including an enterprise gateway server and a private branch exchange coupled therewith, wherein the enterprise gateway server is coupled with the carrier gateway server, and wherein the carrier gateway server receives, from the mobile switching network, a call origination request of a call destined to a mobile station of a member associated with an enterprise network and queries the enterprise gateway server for a policy, wherein the enterprise gateway server stores the call information including the final destination and returns a policy associated with the member to the carrier gateway server, wherein the enterprise gateway server provides routing information to the mobile switching network via the carrier gateway server for routing the call to the private branch exchange, wherein a call is routed to the private branch exchange by the mobile switching network, wherein the private branch exchange routes the call to the enterprise gateway server, and wherein the enterprise gateway server routes the call to a final destination via the private branch exchange. - View Dependent Claims (4)
