SIP is the Most Important Protocol, but…
A common Network and common Protocols changed our lives:
SMTP gave us global email! HTTP gave us the WEB!
IMS
SIP is the Internet standard for
Live IP Communication: The
next step of Internet usage!
Find each other and do something in real
time. Telephony being just one application.
However, SIP does not
traverse the common NATs
and firewalls* separating the
LANs from the Internet .

To get general NAT/Firewall SIP traversal:
Firewall & NAT Router
 Dynamic NAT & Firewall Engine
Used for NAT/Firewall traversal and also as:
 SIP Proxy
Server, capable
- Outbound
proxy of routing
to/from

- Inbound
proxy spaces (NAT)
- SIP Server
 The routing SIP Proxy Server controls
- PBX (The SIP Switch)

The Many Faces of the IX78
In addition to being a router, a firewall, a wireless
access point, an ADSL modem etc., the IX78 has
several SIP and Telephony related functions:
 SIP ATA device (2 FXS ports, 1 FXO port)
SIP E-SBC Gateway for hosted services – LAN and
WLAN SIP devices have global SIP connectivity
IX78 for Hosted SIP Services
 SIP Trunking E-SBC – Connecting IP PBXs directly
to operator’s SIP Telephony Services
Unique SIP support including proxy and registrar,
various VoIP network architectures supported,
advanced SIP and Telephony routing, built in PBX
All these functions can be used together and at the
same time!

Ordinary Voice IADs – Good for Telephony Replication…
Telephone ports (FXS) on the CPE is a popular
way to deploy IP telephony. By logically placing
the SIP clients on the outside of the NAT/Firewall,
unreliable work-around methods like STUN,
TURN and ICE become unnecessary. However,
this only gives POTS replication, often even
stopping general SIP based services!
Internet
The 5060 SIP-port is just grabbed on the
outside to the FXS ports!
Lower level SIP ALGs often cause problems
and do not handle more than basic scenarios.
Often problems with, or total lack of:
• SIP to the LAN or WiFi
• Calls between SIP clients on LAN
• Calls between internal ATA ports and LAN clients
• Call transfers, 3-party calls, etc.
• Using SIP generally over the Internet (Operator “took all the SIP”)
(Users must not be deprived of general SIP-functionality!)

Intertex’ IADs are SIP Capable NAT/Router/Firewalls
IMS
Internet
SIP
No battery draining of WiFi mobile phones, otherwise
caused by keep-alive packets* inhibiting sleep mode.
* Work-around methods for SIP NAT-traversal like STUN, TURN, ICE and Far End NAT
Traversal use frequent keep-alive packets to keep holes in the NAT/Firewall open.

Problems solved where they occur

Wired or wireless SIP clients (phones, soft clients, PDAs)

No special requirements on the SIP Client – Just standard SIP
All Intertex CPEs have a SIP Proxy based SIP aware Firewall/NAT

General, can handle complex call scenarios and all SIP services

Additional functionality available (SIP server, PBX functionality etc.)

SIP-Trunking for the IX78
Connecting IP PBXs to Operators’ SIP Services
 The era of replacing T1/E1/PRI lines
for IP connections to operators’ SIP
telephony services has begun.
 Most IP PBXs require SIP traversal of
the enterprise firewall and some special
additions.
 Intertex’ sister company Ingate has
taken the SIP-Trunking lead.

The IP-PBX Trunk Must Meet Service Provider Trunk
PSTN
Why may an IX78 be required to connect a PBX?
1) NAT/Firewall Traversal – Must NAT to same address space!
2) Basic SIP and Network Interoperability - E.g.
SIP Trunking
Provider Network
Authentication, Registrations, UDP/TLS/TCP, Dynamic IP address, etc.
SIP System
3) SIP Repair - E.g. Call Transfer, Fragmented packets, Bugs, etc.
4) Features - E.g. Remote Users, Administration (remote and local)
5) Security - E.g. Will LAN be opened? Is the PBX designed to be public?

SIP Trunking in Proxy Mode or B2BUA Mode
 Proxy Mode
 IP-PBX talks to Service
 Registration/Authentication model must match
 Little configuration in the IX78
 Service credentials in the PBX
IPPBX
 B2BUA Mode (Proxy still doing the basics)
 IP-PBX only talks to the IX78
 Wider separation between PBX and Service
 Service Credentials only in the IX78
 More SIP Normalization possibilities (e.g. REFER)
 Any new operator service platform only requires IX78
reconfiguration (the PBX configuration can remain)

Powerful Provisioning Systems
Use standardized TR-069 and TR-104 or Intertex’ provisioning - easy to integrate
with existing customer handling system
 Initial automated configuration to get up and
running
THEREAFTER:
 Continued Configuring – New or updated settings easily
distributed
 Firmware Upgrade – The CPE can look for new firmware
releases and upgrade itself
 Customer Purchases – Software options, licenses and
even hardware accessories, can be ordered and delivered from
IG Shop. Provisioner sells to his customer as usual. Unlocking
of subsidized CPE can also be sold this way.


Handles Multimedia and Data (If you wish) with advanced QoS

Connects via DSL (IX78 only) or Ethernet (VLAN tagged or not)
Extra High Quality WAN
Interface over PVC or VLAN
Ethernet
Or hook it into a separate
Ethernet Interface

Classified traffic (Teleprecense, Voice…) takes the fine pipe
© 2012 Intertex Data and Ingate Systems
Making the E-SBC do it – Classify Traffic

Outgoing calls shall take the right pipe (Incoming – signaling and media - stays where it came in)

Classifying in the E-SBC Outbound Proxy is a good way
Devices Registered to
own registrar/PBX
OVCC MSP1 Registered Devices
Devices registered to
Internet connected ITSP

Classified traffic (Telepresence, Voice…) takes the quality pipe

Can also classify based on other criteria, e.g. IP address, DSCP bits, protocol from device
