Methods and apparatus for handling a communication session for an unregistered internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) device
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- in response to receiving an internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message from a user endpoint, determining whether the user endpoint is registered; and
when the user endpoint is determined to be unregistered;
determining whether the internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message is directed to an exception endpoint by performing a lookup on a list;
determining whether a profile for the unregistered user endpoint is available;
when the profile for the user endpoint determined to be unregistered is unavailable, loading a default profile; and
establishing an internet protocol multimedia subsystem session on behalf of the user endpoint determined to be unregistered when the internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message is directed to the exception endpoint.

Abstract
Methods and apparatus for handling a communication session for an unregistered Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) device are disclosed. An example method includes, in response to receiving an internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message from a user endpoint, determining whether the user endpoint is registered; and, when the user endpoint is determined to be unregistered: determining whether the internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message is directed to an exception endpoint by performing a lookup on a list; determining whether a profile for the unregistered user endpoint is available; when the profile for the user endpoint determined to be unregistered is unavailable, loading a default profile; and establishing an internet protocol multimedia subsystem session on behalf of the user endpoint determined to be unregistered when the internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message is directed to the exception endpoint.

8. An apparatus comprising:
-
memory having machine readable instructions stored thereon; and a processor to execute the instructions to perform operations comprising; in response to receiving an internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message from a user endpoint, determining whether the user endpoint is registered; and when the user endpoint is determined to be unregistered; determining whether the internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message is directed to an exception endpoint on a list of exception endpoints; determining whether a profile for the unregistered user endpoint is available; when the profile for the unregistered user endpoint is unavailable, loading a default profile; and establishing an internet protocol multimedia subsystem session on behalf of the unregistered user endpoint when the internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message is directed to the exception endpoint on the list of exception endpoints. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A tangible machine readable storage device comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a machine to perform operations comprising:
-
in response to receiving an internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message from a user endpoint, determining whether the user endpoint is registered; and when the user endpoint is determined to be unregistered; determining whether the internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message is directed to an exception endpoint by performing a lookup on a list; determining whether a profile for the unregistered user endpoint is available; when the profile for the user endpoint determined to be unregistered is unavailable, loading a default profile; and establishing an internet protocol multimedia subsystem session on behalf of the user endpoint determined to be unregistered when the internet protocol multimedia subsystem session initiation message is directed to the exception endpoint. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
