A method, apparatus and system for reconfiguring communications call paths
enables more efficient use of communications network resources and
enhanced service offerings. A plurality of feature control points (FCPs)
located in a plurality of different types of communications carrier
networks are controlled by a single call service node (CSN). The CSN
receives a report from a FCP each time the FCP receives a call control
signaling message. The CSN uses the reports to map the call path, so that
when a connection change request is received, the CSN can select which of
the FCPs to use to effect the requested change based on predetermined
criteria.
