ABSTRACT:
A method for distributing participants of a conference handled by a first conference unit in a packet switched network is disclosed. This is provided by, when a first condition is reached, locating a second conference unit satisfying a second condition, reserving conference call capacity in said second conference unit, transferring one or more of said participants from the first to the second conference unit and preferably entering said first conference unit as a participant in said second conference unit, wherein data streams of possible conference participants still attached to the first conference unit are mixed in the first conference unit and communicated as one data stream to the second conference unit.The invention is particularly useful when applied to the SIP protocol in a 3GPP network.
