Why You Need SIP Protocol for Voice Over IP
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is the communications protocol for person-to-person real time data 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 improvements will allow SIP applications like video conference calls, application sharing, home monitoring, and interactive gaming for companies in Moore.
Producers of SIP hardware are quickly creating new products and software to take advantage of this new Internet communications method. SIP telephones, PC client software, SIP servers, routers, and firewalls are now on the market from companies such as Ingate Systems and Cisco.
Before setting up a SIP plan in your organization, you should consider the proper settings of your corporate firewall to support SIP. Many of the typical firewalls already deployed in business offices are not designed to allow the SIP protocol. First, SIP media streams are transferred over dynamically assigned UDP ports that are normally closed on firewalls. Second, SIP clients within a firewall can not be accessed using IP addresses because these addresses are local and private to the LAN. Third, you need to ensure that either your T1 line broadband carrier or Metro fiber service is able to handle the SIP protocol from your internal network to the outside world. Your IT administrator will need to ascertain how to properly support SIP to get around these technical challenges. By including a SIP proxy and registrar for managing the firewall, it is possible to handle complicated SIP situations for reliable and confidential communications.
