Introduction:
 
SIP, the Session Initiation Protocol, is a signaling protocol for conferencing, telephony, presence, events notification and instant messaging.

It is an application-layer control (signaling) protocol for creating, modifying and terminating sessions with one or more participants. These sessions include Internet multimedia conferences, Internet telephone calls and multimedia distribution. Members in a session can communicate via multicast or via a mesh of unicast relations, or a combination of these. Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) builds on the IP communications foundation by providing a standards-based approach to enabling IP communications with numerous devices and applications.

SIP invitations used to create sessions carry session descriptions which allow participants to agree on a set of compatible media types. SIP supports user mobility by proxying and redirecting requests to the user's current location. Users can register their current location. SIP is not tied to any particular conference control protocol. SIP is designed to be independent of the lower-layer transport protocol and can be extended with additional capabilities. Session controllers promise to enable the same ubiquity, quality, and security for VoIP that the PSTN offers today, only in the more flexible, efficient, and economical manner that IP makes possible.

The SIP fundamentals course provides an overview of SIP, its components, and how it works. It covers data networking principles to telco engineers and signaling principles to IP engineers. It also outlines SIP implementations on the market in the form of single-line gateways, proxy servers, media gateways, Java toolkits, encoders/decoders and session authenticators.
 
Audience:
 
Individuals who wish to develop a basic knowledge of SIP. Essential course for anyone involved in the development and operation of voice or data networks, wireless communications protocol, mobility technologies, and instant messaging.
 
Prerequisites:
 
This is an introductory course with no prerequisites.
 
Customize it:
 
This 3-4-day course will be customized to your needs and specifications. Eno.com will assist you in identifying those needs and specifications. A word to the wise, there are many vendors of wireless training. They will typically have a broad and general course, one size fits all, already developed and just put your organization?s name on the title slide. This minimizes their effort and time investment. At Eno.com, every course is made to your exact and exacting specifications. We help you ensure what you are getting is what you really need even if at the beginning you weren't too sure of what that was. We fit the class to your needs. We never fit you into our standard, one size fits all, class.
