ABSTRACT:
A method is disclosed that enables an improvement in the scalability of a centralized server by reallocating to the client endpoints some, but not all, of the feature functionality of the server. Each logical user in the system is represented by his own private domain of endpoint entities, from which an endpoint is selected to serve as a super peer to represent the user to the centralized server. Furthermore, a designated endpoint is selected, also from the private domain of devices, to handle some of the telecommunications features that the server otherwise would have handled. Each endpoint in the private domain is permitted to have limited direct access to the server, typically for the purposes of registering and subscribing to features, in addition to and in contrast with the indirect access through the super peer. During the subscribing process, the server redirects a subscribing endpoint to the designated endpoint that is handling the feature.
