Why You Need SIP Protocol for Voice Communications
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is the communications technology for person-to-person voice traffic over the Internet. Its technical specifications come from the SIP working group of the Internet Engineering Task Force. SIP provides 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 extended to deal with IP telephony in conjunction with video and instant messaging. Forthcoming enhancements will allow SIP applications such as video conference calls, application sharing, home monitoring, and interactive gaming for companies in Tolland.
SIP is usually associated with a technique to implement the operation of common telephony over an IP network. It is replacing the older, less versatile 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 system. SIP, however, provides an elegant and well-defined way to network the enterprise. For instance, SIP uses email addresses as the SIP address instead of a telephone number over the regular telephone network.
Before implementing a SIP plan in your organization, you should think about the appropriate settings of your corporate firewall to accept SIP. Many of the typical firewalls currently deployed in business offices are not designed to allow the SIP protocol. First, SIP media streams are transmitted over dynamically assigned UDP ports that are normally blocked on firewalls. Second, SIP clients inside a firewall can not be reached using IP addresses since these addresses are local and unique to the LAN. Third, you need to ensure that either your T1 line broadband carrier or Ethernet fiber provider is able to support the SIP protocol from your internal network to the outside world. Your IT manager will need to evaluate how to appropriately support SIP to overcome these technical challenges. By including a SIP proxy and registrar for controlling the firewall, it is feasible to deal with complex SIP scenarios for secure and confidential communications.
