Why You Need SIP Protocol for Voice Over IP
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is the transmission protocol 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 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. Future enhancements will allow SIP applications like video conference calls, application sharing, home monitoring, and interactive gaming for businesses in Loveland.
Manufacturers of SIP equipment are rapidly designing 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 available from companies such as Ingate Systems and Cisco.
Prior to implementing a SIP plan in your organization, you should take into account the proper settings of your corporate firewall to support SIP. Many of the typical firewalls currently installed in business offices are not designed to allow the SIP protocol. First, SIP media streams are transmitted over dynamically allocated UDP ports that are often shut on firewalls. Second, SIP clients inside a firewall can not be reached 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 Ethernet fiber carrier is able to support the SIP protocol from your internal network to the outside world. Your IT administrator will need to ascertain how to appropriately support SIP to overcome these technical challenges. By including a SIP proxy and registrar for managing the firewall, it is feasible to handle complicated SIP situations for secure and confidential communications.
