ABSTRACT:
Methods, systems and computer program products for the reassignment of communications sessions to a primary network communications path from a secondary network communications path are provided, which detect the availability of the primary network communications path and reroute existing transferable communications sessions to the primary network communications path from the secondary network communications path. Non-transferable communications sessions are maintained over the secondary network communications path until such non-transferable communications sessions are terminated. Upon termination of all such non-transferable communications sessions, the secondary network communications path may be deactivated. Additionally, new communications sessions may be assigned to the primary network communications path if the availability of the primary network communications path has been detected. Moreover, the reassignment of communications sessions to a primary network communications path from a secondary network communications path may be performed automatically by the network control software, without disruption of the communications sessions.
