Abstract
A session is established between an initiating device and a remote device. A session request is transmitted from the initiating device to the remote device according to a preferred networking protocol. If no provisional response to the request is received at the initiating device within an initial duration, the initiating device transmits another session request to the other device according to a non-preferred protocol. If a provisional response to the request is received within the initial duration, the initiating device continues to monitor the elapsed time for an so extended duration. If no final response to the request is received within the extended duration, the initiating device transmits another session request to the other device according to a non-preferred protocol. If a final response is received within the extended duration, a session between the initiating device and the other device is established according to the preferred networking protocol.
