Abstract:
A method and system are provided for enabling forwarding of communication requests directed by callers to callees. Forwarding-profile information, which may be used in forwarding of communication requests directed to a callee, may be received in a computerized central unit. The computerized central unit may then transfer forwarding information that is based on the forwarding-profile information, to a network server in a network in which the callee is a user and/or a subscriber, for enabling the network server to forward communication requests to the callee based on the forwarding information. The forwarding-profile information may comprise destination addresses for forwarding communication requests to the callee; categorizations of callers into caller groups; and/or forwarding-schemes for specifying how to forward communication requests from particular callers. The forwarding-schemes may specify for different communication technologies, whether a received communication request through each communication technology is forwarded to a destination address using a particular communication technology.
