These features, herein collectively referred to as calling features, include, for example: call waiting, call forwarding, three-way calling, speed calling, caller ID, voice mail, and Centrex Business Telephone Groups.
- the features database is addressed using the central office protocol which uses an E.164 number to identify the calling party's telephone number.
- the PTSN subscriber 18 calling from telephone number NXX-XXX1 has, in this example, subscribed to call waiting, 3-way calling, call forwarding, call hold and is a member of a centrex group.

- the calling party goes "off-hook” (Step 202) .
- the central office 16a returns "dial-tone" and identifies subscriber's E.164 via subscriber port ID unit 40 (Step 204).
- the calling party enters the called party digits (Step 206) .
- the central office processor 22 addresses "features" and "administration” databases 30, 32, respectively, with calling subscriber's E. 164 and provides processor 22 with calling features subscribed to by the calling party (Step 208) .

- the IP network interface 27 at the central office 16a converts central office protocol into TCP/IP network protocol for switching network 22 and routes call to called party via the IP network 14 using called party's TCP/IP IP network address protocol (Step 216). If, on the other hand, the called party has not logged onto the IP network (i.e. the IP network "flag" 31 has not been set) , the switching network 28 routes call to called party through PSTN 12 using called party's E. 164 (Step 214).

If the called party has logged onto the IP network, the IP network interface 27 at the central office 16a converts central office protocol into TCP/IP IP network protocol for switching network 22 and routes call to called party via the IP network 14 using called party's TCP/IP IP network address protocol (Step 216) . If, on the other hand, the called party has not logged onto the IP network (i.e. the IP network "flag" 31 has not been set) , the switching network 28 routes call to called party through PSTN 12 using called party's E. 164 (Step 214).
