先に説明した本発明のすべての実施形態および観点において、インターネットプロトコルネットワーク電話(IPNT)として現在知られているもの以外の、専ら従来のインテリジェント電話ネットワークの技術領域から特定の例を描いた。このインターネットインテリジェントネットワーク電話では、コンピュータがソフトウェア、マイクロフォン、スピーカにより電話機をシミュレーションし、このように装備されたコンピュータ間の電話データはインターネット(およびときにはイントラネットのような他のデータネットワーク)接続を通して送られ、インターネット中の宛先番号サーバ(DNS)のようなサーバにより宛先に向けられる。IPNTワールドでは、電話番号の代わりにIPアドレスが使用され、データパケットが定形化されて送られる方法に差異がある。さらに、ルーティングと呼ばれるものはIPスイッチおよびハブのようなものによりなされ、ここでアドレスが変更される可能性がある。しかしながら、これらの差異は本発明の実施形態における制限ではない。
