Abstract

See full text

Various embodiments provide for a way of accessing databases and existing hardware with a gateway that can route calls on different legacy networks by using features of existing telecommunication policy and databases. Some embodiments utilize numbers in one or more of a carrier's native number block and an algorithm or database to switch a routing number and enter instead a desired phone number/routing location. Using these techniques, calls can be routed to underlying carriers (e.g., facilities carriers) without the need to own or lease traditional facilities to access the network. For example, in some embodiments, a carrier may map incoming numbers to a different number so that the components of the network route the call for that carrier but terminate the call to another carrier that provides traditional facilities on its behalf.
