Call Control entities in a network communicate between themselves by amending call processing messages to include encrypted network information. As such, a call may be established whose path through the network is dependent on the paths of other calls. Information of a scope larger than a Call Controller normally possesses can, as a result of this communication, be made available to Call Controllers for constraining call establishment. This information could relate to other calls and connections associated with those other calls. The information may also relate to gateways in and to adjacent networks and the Call Controllers in the adjacent networks that are related to the current Call Controller.

1. At a client call controller connected to a connection-oriented network including a plurality of interconnected network call controllers, a method of requesting a call comprising: sending an unencrypted call request message to a network call controller in said connection-oriented network over a first User-Network Interface (UNI);including, in said unencrypted call request message, an identifier of a second UNI connecting said client call controller to said connection-oriented network, wherein each UNI comprises one or more data bearing links between a user and a network;receiving an encrypted one of a call accept message or a call reject message at the client call controller, the encrypted one of the call accept message or the call reject message including encrypted network information;storing the encrypted one of the call accept message or the call reject message at the client call controller; andsending an encrypted call request message to the network call controller in response to the received encrypted one of the call accept message or the call reject message. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein said encrypted call request message relates a call to a destination and includes an identity of a first destination UNI connected to said destination, said method further comprising including, in said encrypted call request message, an identifier of a second destination UNI connecting said destination to said connection-oriented network. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the encrypted call request message indicates that a second call request will follow, wherein the encrypted call request message further includes a constraint indicating the second call has a path that is diverse from a path of the requested call. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the client call controller is dual homed such that the first UNI is in communication with a first network call controller and the second UNI is in communication with a second network call controller different from the first network call controller. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the encrypted call request message allows a destination network call controller to learn that the client call controller is dual homed. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the identifier of the second user to network interface comprises a public network address. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the encrypted call accept message includes information about a path computed for the requested call. 8. A system for a connection-oriented network, comprising: a source client call controller connected to the connection-oriented network, the source client call controller having: a first User-Network Interface (UNI);a second UNI; anda processor, the processor configured to use the first UNI to send an unencrypted call request message to a first source network call controller, said unencrypted call request message including an identifier of the second UNI connecting said source client call controller to said connection-oriented network, wherein each UNI comprises one or more data bearing links between a user and a network,the processor configured to receive an encrypted one of a call accept message or a call reject message from the first source network call controller in response to the unencrypted call request message,the processor configured to store the encrypted one of the call accept message or the call reject message at the source client call controller; andthe processor configured to send an encrypted call request message to the first source network call controller in response to the received encrypted one of the call accept message or the call reject message. 9. The system of claim 8, further comprising: a destination client call controller connected to the connection-oriented network, the destination client call controller having: a first destination UNI; anda second destination UNI,wherein said encrypted call request message relates a call to a destination and includes an identity of the first destination UNI, said encrypted call request message further includes an identifier of the second destination UNI connecting said destination client call controller to said connection-oriented network. 10. The system of claim 8, wherein the encrypted call request message indicates that a second call request will follow, wherein the encrypted call request message further includes a constraint indicating the second call has a path that is diverse from a path of the requested call. 11. The system of claim 8, further comprising a second source network call controller, wherein the source client call controller is dual homed such that the first UNI is in communication with the first source network call controller and the second UNI is in communication with the second network call controller. 12. The system of claim 11, wherein the encrypted call request message allows a destination network call controller to learn that the client call controller is dual homed. 13. A client call controller for a connection-oriented network, the connection-oriented network supporting a plurality of interconnected network call controllers, the client call controller comprising: a first User-Network Interface (UNI);a second UNI; anda processor, the processor configured to use the first UNI to send an unencrypted call request message to a network call controller in said connection-oriented network, said unencrypted call request message including an identifier of the second UNI connecting said client call controller to said connection-oriented network, wherein each UNI comprises one or more data bearing links between a user and a network,the processor configured to receive an encrypted one of a call accept message or a call reject message from the network call controller in response to the unencrypted call request message,the processor configured to store the encrypted one of the call accept message or the call reject message at the client call controller; andthe processor configured to send an encrypted call request message to the network call controller in response to the received encrypted one of the call accept message or the call reject message. 14. The client call controller of claim 13, wherein said encrypted call request message relates to a call to a destination and includes an identity of a first destination UNI connected to said destination, said encrypted call request message further includes an identifier of a second destination UNI connecting said destination to said connection-oriented network. 15. The client call controller of claim 13, wherein the encrypted call request message indicates that a second call request will follow, wherein the encrypted call request message further includes a constraint indicating the second call has a path that is diverse from a path of the requested call. 16. The client call controller of claim 13, wherein the client call controller is dual homed such that the first UNI is configured to communicate with a first network call controller and the second UNI is configured to communicate with a second network call controller different from the first network call controller. 17. The client call controller of claim 16, wherein the encrypted call request message allows a destination network call controller to learn that the client call controller is dual homed.
