Abstract

Proximity-based registration of a user to a data network appliance (208) on a data network telephony system. A portable information device (210), such as a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) or passive proximity-based security badge, is associated with the user (220). When the portable information device (201) is brought within a proximity range of a data network appliance (208), one or more messages are wirelessly transmitted between the portable information device (210) and the data network appliance (208). The data network appliance (208) then transmits a registration request to a registration server (202) to register the user to the data network appliance (208). As a result, calls for the user will be routed to the data network appliance to which the user is registered.
