Abstract

Un serveur (112) est configuré pour connecter un appel entrant à un ordinateur client (102), dans lequel un appel est généré par un combiné téléphonique (140) et destiné à une ligne RTPC locale (106) déjà utilisée par l'ordinateur client (102) communiquant avec le serveur (112) pour une autre raison. Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, le serveur (112) comprend un support de stockage et une unité d'exécution. Dans le support de stockage sont stockées une pluralité d'instructions de programmation destinées à mettre en oeuvre des services de communication afin de faciliter la connexion de l'appel entrant au nom de l'ordinateur client (102), d'acheminement, de manière entrelacée, des signaux d'appel entrant dans l'ordinateur client (102), d'acceptation des signaux d'appel entrelacés vers l'extérieur provenant de l'ordinateur client (102) et de transmission des signaux d'appel vers l'extérieur ou non, de l'ordinateur client (102) vers le combiné téléphonique (140). L'unité d'exécution, couplée au support de stockage, est responsable de l'exécution des instructions de programmation.
