Why You Need SIP Protocol for Voice Over IP
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is the communications 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 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 combined with video and instant messaging. Forthcoming enhancements will allow SIP applications such as video conference calls, application sharing, home monitoring, and interactive gaming for businesses in Mantua.
Suppliers of SIP equipment are quickly 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 obtainable from companies such as Ingate Systems and Cisco.
Prior to installing a SIP solution in your company, you should take into account the proper settings of your corporate firewall to accept SIP. Many of the common firewalls currently installed in business offices are not developed to support the SIP protocol. First, SIP media streams are transferred over dynamically allocated UDP ports that are normally shut on firewalls. Second, SIP clients inside a firewall can not be reached using IP addresses since these addresses are local and private to the LAN. Third, you need to ensure that either your T1 line provider 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 adding a SIP proxy and registrar for managing the firewall, it is possible to handle complex SIP scenarios for secure and private communications.
