VoIP
VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is a technology that uses the Internet Protocol instead of
traditional Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN) technology for voice communications.
It is a family of technologies, methodologies, communication protocols, and transmission
techniques for the delivery of voice communications and multimedia sessions over IP networks.
The H.323 and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) are two popular VoIP protocols that are found in
widespread implementation.
H.323
H.323 is a recommendation from the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T)
that defines the protocols to provide audio-visual communication sessions on any packet
network. The H.323 standard addresses call signaling and control, multimedia transport and
control, and bandwidth control for point-to-point and multi-point conferences.
It is widely implemented by voice and video conference equipment manufacturers, is used
within various Internet real-time applications, such as GnuGK and NetMeeting, and is widely
deployed by service providers and enterprises for both voice and video services over IP
networks.
