The SIP Interoperability Challenge
 The SIP standard leaves substantial room for
interpretation and implementation choices. This leads
to variance between the entities that create SIP
solutions, both equipment vendors and service
providers. SIP interoperability is only assured through
compliance testing.
 Resolving SIP Interoperability
– Compliance Testing and Configuration Templates
• Testing selected services and systems
• Profile configurations in management interfaces
– Edge Device Interoperability Toolkits
• SIP header manipulation
• Advanced routing
• SIP B2BUA – ‘back to back user agent’

Secure Firewall and NAT Traversal
 Standard Firewall Design
– Allow Premise Users to Make Public Network Requests
• HTTP - Browse the Web
PUBLIC NETWORK
REQUESTS
– Block Unsolicited Requests from the Internet
• Inbound ‘SIP Phone Calls’
SIP
– Hide Network Topology
• Mask Internal IP Addresses
 Live SIP Communication Requires:
FIREWALL
– Secure Method to Traverse the Firewall
• SIP Application Layer Gateway (ALG)
• SIP Aware Firewall
• Session Border Controller
– Maintain NAT and Port Security
– Remote Firewall and NAT Traversal
• ‘Pinholes’ in the Firewall
– Less enterprise control and security

SIP Security Issues
 Primary Security Issues
– Denial of Service Attacks
• Continued requests to the network to disrupt services by
overloading network resources
– SPIT (Spam over Internet Telephony)
• Unwanted automatically dialed calls from malicious
persons or telemarketers
– Toll Fraud
• Theft of service through unauthorized access
 Addressing SIP Security

SIP & Legacy Infrastructure Issue

SIP
Existing TDM PBXs and many Hybrid PBXs do not have SIP
protocol support
– In some cases, SIP upgrades are not available
– When available, SIP upgrades can be very expensive
TDM

Enabling SIP service connectivity with legacy infrastructure:
– VoIP to TDM Conversion – translate and transcode packet VoIP
streams to traditional TDM circuit switched voice channels
– SIP to TDM Protocol Conversion – translate SIP signaling into any
Primary Rate ISDN signaling (T1 or E1) and CAS
– Emulate PSTN Trunk Service – provide physical connections to
legacy PSTN trunk ports on the PBX or Contact Center System
– Dial Plan Modification - append or strip digits as needed to
normalize routing between disparate devices

Fax over IP Support / FoIP
 Traditional PSTN Fax Transmission Protocol is T.30
– Unreliable over an IP network
– Not designed to navigate Jitter, Latency and Packet loss
– Pass-Through Techniques are only about 80% reliable
• page by page!
 Reliable FoIP Transmission Protocol is T.38
–
–
–
–
ITU Fax Relay Protocol for IP Networks
Designed to deal with Jitter, Latency and Packet Loss
Gateway and ATA devices convert T.30 to T.38
Uses up to 80% less bandwidth than Fax Pass-Through
techniques
– Reliability rivals traditional T.30 fax over PSTN / TDM
networks

SIP Service Demarcation

Defining Service Demarcation
– Physical trunk service termination point
– Located on customer premise
– Defines QOS location ownership / responsibility
PUBLIC
NETWORK
• Service provider
• Enterprise telecom or IT department (or outsourced to a PBX vendor)
– Typically not well defined for SIP Trunking services
• ‘Over the top’ service on broadband data pipe
DEMARC

Establishing SIP Service Demarcation
– Enterprise SBC acts as a demarcation point
– QOS Monitoring and Reporting Functions
CUSTOMER
PREMISE
• Enables troubleshooting
• Reduces ‘fingerpointing’
– Robust Diagnostic Tools
• Aids Service Issue Resolution
