Abstract
An exemplary method of the invention is for connecting a plurality of clients to one another over a computer network for communication of real-time streaming data to one another, with at least one of the clients being separated by a security device from the network. Exemplary steps include each of the clients communicating a request to the server including a client address and a conference identifier, the server using the conference identifier to identify a conference address, and the server communicating a confirmation to each of the clients in a first protocol containing the at least one conference address. The at least one security device recognizes one or both of the confirmation and request as a signal to allow traffic to pass from said conference address to the respective client separated from the network by the security device. Each of the clients communicates real time streaming data to the conference address in a second protocol, and the server communicates real time streaming data received from each of the clients in the second protocol at the conference address to the others of the clients whereby the plurality of clients share real-time streaming data.
