Abstract
The present technology comprises system architecture and methods that provide a media proxy configured to be inserted dynamically into a VoIP system, as-needed, either during call setup or during a call; in either case, in response to invoking a particular feature that requires the media proxy. This dynamic media proxy configuration provides many advantages, including lower cost and better quality of calls. In some embodiments of the system architecture and methods, the media proxy is configured to be inserted during set up of a call. In other embodiments of the system architecture and methods, the media proxy is configured to be inserted when a call is in progress.
