`AMENDMENTS TO THE CLAIMS
`
`1.
`
`(Original)
`
`A process for producing a routing message for routing communications
`
`between a caller and a callee in a communication system, the process comprising:
`
`using a caller identifier associated with the caller to locate a caller dialing profile
`
`comprising a plurality of calling attributes associated with the caller;
`
`when at least one of said calling attributes and at least a portion of a callee
`
`identifier associated with the callee meet private network classification criteria, producing
`
`a private network routing message for receipt by a call controller, said private network
`
`routing message identifying an address, on the private network, associated with the callee;
`
`and
`
`h
`
`when at least one of said calling attributes and at least a portion of said callee
`
`identifier meet a public network classification criterion, producing a public network
`
`routing message for receipt by the call controller, said public network routing message
`
`identifying a gateway to the public network.
`
`2.
`
`(Original)
`
`The process of claim 1, wherein said private network classification criteria
`
`include:
`
`a)
`
`said callee identifier does not begin with the same digit pattern as an international
`
`dialing digit (IDD) attribute of said callee identifier; and
`
`b)
`
`said callee identifier does not begin with the same digit pattern as a national
`
`dialing digit (NDD) attribute of said callee identifier; and
`
`c)
`
`said callee identifier does not begin with the same area code as an area code of
`
`said caller; and
`
`d)
`
`said callee identifier does, not have a length that is within a range of caller local
`
`number lengths; and
`
`e)
`

`The process of claim 2, further comprising identifying the call as a cross-
`
`domain call on the private network when said callee identifier identifies a callee that is not
`
`associated with the same network node as said caller.
`
`4.
`
`(Original)
`
`The process of claim 2, further comprising:
`
`locating a callee dialing profile for the callee when said callee identifier identifies
`
`V a callee that is associated with the same network node as said caller; and
`
`retrieving call handling information associated with the callee, where said call
`
`handing information is available, said call handing information including at least one of
`
`call blocking information, call forwarding information, and voicemail information.
`
`5.
`
`(Original)
`
`The process of claim 4, further comprising, where said call handling
`
`information including said call blocking information is available, blocking the call when said call
`
`blocking information identifies the caller as a caller from whom calls are to be blocked from
`
`being established with the callee.
`
`6.
`
`(Original)
`
`The process of claim 4, further comprising, where said call handling
`
`information including said call forwarding information is available, causing said call forwarding
`

`
`The process of claim 4, further comprising, where said call handling
`
`information including said voicemail
`
`information is
`
`available, causing said voicemail
`

`
`8.
`
`(Original)
