Abstract

See full text

An automatic method and apparatus for communicating information, such as teleconference data between teleconferencing systems. A first endpoint identifies communication capabilities to a second endpoint via a first message. The first endpoint notifies the second endpoint of the desire to connect via a second message. The second endpoint retrieves a timeout value from the second message and dynamically responds to the first endpoint according to the timeout value and a current context and notifies the first endpoint of confirmation to connect via a third message. The first and the second endpoint then establish communication according to the communication capabilities. The first and the second endpoint can optimize transfers of teleconference data according to the identified communication capabilities.
