Node
First Claim
1. A node for providing peer-to-peer services in a communication network, the network comprising of at least one further node, the node comprising;
- an input arranged to receive at least one SIP peer-to-peer request;
an output arranged to transmit the at least one SIP peer-to-peer request from the node to at least one of the at least one further nodes; and
wherein the input is further arranged to receive at least one SIP peer-to-peer response from the at least one further node and the output is arranged to transmit the SIP peer-to-peer response.
