ABSTRACT:
Call setup time is reduced by automatically (1) identifying the type of signaling used by a caller to communicate with a central office, and (2) providing an indication of the signaling type to telephone switches or databases that will participate in routing and processing the telephone call. Dual Tone Multifrequency (DTMF) detectors located at a central office of a local exchange carrier detect whether a caller is using DTMF signaling. The local central office includes this information in a signaling message provided, for example, to interexchange carriers and other service providers which will use DTMF signaling during and after call setup. In this manner, the need to query the caller for this information is eliminated.
