Why You Need SIP Protocol for Voice Communications
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is the communications technology for person-to-person voice traffic over the Web. Its defining specifications come from the SIP working group of the Internet Engineering Task Force. SIP gives access to the public switched telephone network for voice data at 3 kHz bandwidth and common number dialing using Voice over IP (VoIP). It can also be expanded to handle IP telephony combined with video and instant messaging. Forthcoming enhancements will enable SIP applications such as video conference calls, application sharing, home monitoring, and interactive gaming for companies in Oakdale.
SIP is commonly thought of as a means to implement the operation of ordinary telephony over an IP network. It is replacing the older, less adaptable protocols used in the past such as H.323 and MGCP. These older protocols functioned at a very low level to connect IP phones to the public telephone network. SIP, however, provides an elegant and well-defined way to network the enterprise. For example, SIP uses email addresses as the SIP address instead of a telephone number over the standard phone network.
Prior to setting up a SIP solution in your business, you should consider the appropriate settings of your corporate firewall to support SIP. Many of the typical firewalls already deployed in business offices are not developed to allow the SIP protocol. First, SIP media streams are transmitted over dynamically allocated UDP ports that are typically closed on firewalls. Second, SIP clients inside a firewall can not be reached using IP addresses since these addresses are local and private to the LAN. Third, you need to ensure that either your T1 line carrier or Metro fiber service is able to support the SIP protocol from your internal network to the outside world. Your IT administrator will need to evaluate how to appropriately support SIP to get around these technical problems. By including a SIP proxy and registrar for controlling the firewall, it is possible to deal with complicated SIP situations for reliable and private communications.
