Circuit-switched telephone networks require 64 kilobits per second (Kbps) in each
direction to handle a telephone call. VoIP can use advanced voice coding
techniques with compression to reduce the required bandwidth.
SIP
The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is an application-layer control (signaling)
protocol that handles the setting up, altering and tearing down of voice and
multimedia sessions over the Internet.
SIP signaling is separate from the media for which it handles sessions. The media
that is exchanged during the session can use a different path from that of the
signaling. SIP handles telephone calls and can interface with traditional circuit-
switched telephone networks.
SIP Identities
A SIP account uses an identity (sometimes referred to as a SIP address). A
complete SIP identity is called a SIP URI (Uniform Resource Identifier). A SIP
account's URI identifies the SIP account in a way similar to the way an e-mail
address identifies an e-mail account. The format of a SIP identity is SIP-
Number@SIP-Service-Domain.
SIP Number
The SIP number is the part of the SIP URI that comes before the “@” symbol. A
SIP number can use letters like in an e-mail address ([email protected] for
example) or numbers like a telephone number ([email protected]
for example).
SIP Service Domain
The SIP service domain of the VoIP service provider is the domain name in a SIP
URI. For example, if the SIP address is
, then
“VoIP-provider.com” is the SIP service domain.
SIP Registration
Each NVG2053 is an individual SIP User Agent (UA). To provide voice service, it
has a public IP address for SIP and RTP protocols to communicate with other
servers.
A SIP user agent has to register with the SIP registrar and must provide
information about the users it represents, as well as its current IP address (for the
routing of incoming SIP requests). After successful registration, the SIP server
knows that the users (identified by their dedicated SIP URIs) are represented by
