Why You Need SIP Protocol for Voice Communications
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is the transmission technology for person-to-person real time 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 deal with IP telephony in conjunction with video and instant messaging. Forthcoming improvements will allow SIP applications such as video conference calls, application sharing, home monitoring, and interactive gaming for businesses in Brooke.
Makers of SIP components are rapidly developing innovative hardware and software to get the upper hand in this new Internet communications scheme. SIP telephones, PC client programs, SIP servers, routers, and firewalls are now obtainable from companies such as Ingate Systems and Cisco.
Prior to installing a SIP solution in your business, you should take into account the appropriate configuration of your corporate firewall to accept SIP. Many of the common firewalls already installed in business offices are not designed to support the SIP protocol. First, SIP media streams are transferred over dynamically allocated UDP ports that are usually shut 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 provider or Metro fiber service is able to support the SIP protocol from your internal network to the outside world. Your IT manager will need to evaluate how to correctly support SIP to overcome these technical difficulties. By adding a SIP proxy and registrar for controlling the firewall, it is feasible to handle complicated SIP scenarios for secure and private communications.
