The SIParator is a customer-premises-based firewall for Session Initiated Protocol
(SIP, the new IETF protocol for IP telephony applications), which allows an enterprise
to open up a session on a traditional firewall and allows voice traffic to securely
pass over the data network and manage the IP telephony applications. One of the top five predictions for 2002 made by the Yankee Group Security Solutions & Services Report "Security Industry Predictions 2002: Where the Money Will Go," published in March 2002 was that VoIP security products would be deployed and tested throughout the end of 2002 and into 2003. The Yankee Group was clearly ahead of itself as Ingate is gaining traction with the announcement of a potentially severalhundred unit deployment in Telia's network.

With today's widespread deployment of IP (Internet Protocol) networks, voice over IP (VoIP) networks are now a reality. Companies are starting to realize large savings in voice communications charges and are benefiting from increased telephone network efficiency. New converged voice and data solutions enable companies to extend information and advanced communications capabilities out to the edge of their networks and right into the branch office. Branch offices can now take advantage of streamlined communications with functionality previously available only in the corporate head office. As well as long distance charges, these solutions enable major savings by consolidating telecommunications lines for voice, data, and multimedia onto a single, low-cost converged broadband service.

APCO is deeply concerned that the rapid deployment of Voice over Internet Protocol ("VoIP" OR "IP Telephony") service will have a serious, negative impact on the provision of 9-1-1 emergency communications across the nation. That APCO strongly encourage all providers of VON telephone services take action to ensure that when an emergency 9-1-1 call is placed from a telephone using VON, the call is completed to the appropriate Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) and the physical address of the caller's location is displayed via the Automatic Location Identification (ALI) database; and be it further resolved That APCO recognizes the authority of state and local government to assess 9-1-1 fees, where authorized by valid statutes, against VON subscribers and the responsibility of VON providers to collect and submit the 9-1-1 fees; and be it further resolved That APCO recognizes the authority of the PSAP to determine 9-1-1 call routing, including routing of 9-1-1 calls placed utilizing VON technology, based upon its jurisdictional requirements and policies; and be it finally resolved That APCO does not support routing 9-1-1 calls, including those placed utilizing VON, to an agency's ten-digit administrative lines, except as necessary in a short term interim solution, with the agreement of the PSAP. mr040610-5 VoIP, technology, Ipsos-Reid, Internet, Canadian, market, online, consumers, Ipsos-Reid Corporation, Canada, telcos.

VoIP, aka Voice over Internet Protocol, the migration of voice telephony to the Internet, is one of the hottest current tickets in telecommunications today. These and other issues are generating much controversy in telecom circles. They also are teed up for resolution by the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") - the same governmental body currently grappling with Janet Jackson (and the revelation of her right breast to the Superbowl viewing audience for a nanosecond), media consolidation, and efforts to implement competition in local exchange telephone service. In the case of VoIP, the FCC recently determined that a particular variant of Internet telephony provided by pulver.com is not a telecommunications service at all, but rather a form of information service. Thus classified, pulver.com's service is not subject to rate and entry/exit regulation as common carriage under Title II of the Communications Act. avt-18 compression, header compression, VoIP Header, MPLS, multiple-hop paths, packet, cRTP, decompressor, LSP, MPLS labels, signaling. · save 90% bandwidth capacity with VoIP header compression v increase scalability of VoIP header compression to a very large number of flows -- avoid multiple compression-decompression cycles for a given flow on multiple-hope paths v not significantly degrade packet delay, delay variation, or loss probability v allow efficient signaling of header context from compressor to decompressor. extensions to [cRTP] and [cRTP-ENHANCE] v new packet type field to identify FULL_HEADER, CONTEXT_STATE, etc. packets v create 'SCID routing tables' to allow routing based on the session context ID (SCID) new objects defined for [RSVP-TE] extensions to RFC2547 VPNs v SCID routing combined with label switching at PE's extensions need coordination with other WGs (MPLS, L3VPN, etc.) VoIP_fhttp://www.timesten.com/library/downloads/VoIP_f.pdf VoIP, network elements, infrastructure software, enables, reliability, scalability, service providers, subscriber, enterprises, management, real-time.

British cable operator ntl has launched broadband voice, video and high-speed data services to business and public sector clients on a national, regional and local basis using its metro and national Ethernet backbones that cover more than 1 mil. While aimed at commercial customers, the Ethernet-based services will eventually seep down into ntl's residential cable business, said Martin Gunn, the provider's head of customer engineering. A key driver of the commercial initiative, he added, is voice-over-IP over Ethernet networks, supplanting existing point-to-point telephone links. "It's the best of the new technology integrated with all the capabilities that make it deployable on a large-scale basis from a carrier's perspective."

Report to IEEE conference regarding VoIP degradation over 802.11 networks under Bluetooth interference. Advances in quality of service (QOS) and greater market availability have resulted in increased utilization of Voice over IP (VoIP) on enterprise networks. VoIP technology offers substantial benefits including efficient resource utilization, a homogeneous network offering both voice and data, potential for other multimedia transmission (e.g. video), and lower data bandwidth requirements than traditional telephony. In order to evaluate some of the effects of radio interference on VoIP transmission over wireless channels, ITS has investigated the degradation of estimated mean opinion scores (MOS) in VoIP transmissions over Wi-Fi channels with nearby Bluetooth interferers. Estimates of MOS were derived using the perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ) algorithm (ITU-P.862) and packet loss was measured using a software-based protocol analyzer. | ||
