Why You Need SIP Protocol for Voice Communications
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is the transmission protocol for person-to-person voice data over the Web. 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 in conjunction with video and instant messaging. Future improvements will allow SIP applications such as video conference calls, application sharing, home monitoring, and interactive gaming for businesses in Hope.
SIP is in most cases associated with a means to emulate the functionality of ordinary telephony over an IP network. It is replacing the older, less flexible protocols used in the past such as H.323 and MGCP. These older protocols functioned at a very low level to link IP phones to the public telephone network. SIP, on the other hand, provides an elegant and well-defined way to network the enterprise. For example, SIP uses email addresses as the SIP address in place of a telephone number over the standard telephone network.
Before setting up a SIP plan in your company, you should take into account the appropriate settings of your corporate firewall to accept SIP. Many of the common firewalls already deployed in business offices are not developed to support the SIP protocol. First, SIP media streams are transferred over dynamically assigned UDP ports that are normally 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 carrier or Ethernet fiber provider is able to handle 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 problems. By adding a SIP proxy and registrar for managing the firewall, it is possible to deal with complicated SIP situations for secure and private communications.
