Product Overview
1
This chapter contains the following information about the VP530 IP video phone:
VoIP Principle
SIP Components
Introducing VP530 IP Video Phone
VoIP
VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is a technology using 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 implement.
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 worldwide by service providers and enterprises for both voice and
video services over IP networks.
SIP
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is the Internet Engineering Task Force’s (IETF’s) standard
for multimedia conferencing over IP. It is an ASCII-based, application-layer control
protocol (defined in RFC 3261) that can be used to establish, maintain, and terminate
calls between two or more endpoints. Like other VoIP protocols, SIP is designed to
address the functions of signaling and session management within a packet telephony
network. Signaling allows call information to be carried across network boundaries.
Session management provides the ability to control the attributes of an end-to-end call.

Administrator’s Guide for VP530 IP Video Phone

SIP provides the capabilities to:
Determine the location of the target endpoint -- SIP supports address resolution,
name mapping, and call redirection.
Determine the media capabilities of the target endpoint -- Via Session Description
Protocol (SDP), SIP determines the “lowest level” of common services between the
endpoints. Conferences are established using only the media capabilities that can
be supported by all endpoints.
Determine the availability of the target endpoint -- A call cannot be completed
because the target endpoint is unavailable, SIP determines whether the called
party is already on the IP phone or did not answer in the allotted number of rings. It
then returns a message indicating why the target endpoint was unavailable.
Establish a session between the origin and target endpoint -- The call can be
completed, SIP establishes a session between the endpoints. SIP also supports
mid-call changes, such as the addition of another endpoint to the conference or the
changing of a media characteristic or codec.
Handle the transfer and termination of calls -- SIP supports the transfer of calls from
one endpoint to another. During a call transfer, SIP simply establishes a session
between the transferee and a new endpoint (specified by the transferring party)
and terminates the session between the transferee and the transferring party. At
the end of a call, SIP terminates the sessions between all parties.
SIP is a peer-to-peer protocol. The peers in a session are called User Agents (UAs). A
user agent can function as one of the following roles:
User Agent Client (UAC) -- A client application that initiates the SIP request.
User Agent Server (UAS) -- A server application that contacts the user when a SIP
request is received and that returns a response on behalf of the user.
User Agent Client (UAC)
The UAC is an application that initiates up to six feasible SIP requests to the UAS. The six
requests issued by the UAC are: INVITE, ACK, OPTIONS, BYE, CANCEL and REGISTER.
When the SIP session is being initiated by the UAC SIP component, the UAC determines
the information essential for the request, which is the protocol, the port and the IP
address of the UAS to which the request is being sent. This information can be dynamic
and this will make it challenging to put through a firewall. For this reason it may be
recommended to open the specific application type on the firewall. The UAC is also
capable of using the information in the request URI to establish the course of the SIP
request to its destination, as the request URI always specifies the host which is essential.
The port and protocol are not always specified by the request URI. Thus if the request
does not specify a port or protocol, a default port or protocol is contacted. Using this

method may be the preferred measure when not using an application layer firewall,
application layer firewalls like to know what applications are flowing though which
ports and it is possible using content types of other applications other than the one you
are trying to let through which has been denied.
User agent server (UAS)
UAS is the server that hosts the application responsible for receiving the SIP requests
from a UAC, and on reception returns a response to the request back to the UAC. The
UAS may issue multiple responses to the UAC, not necessarily a single response.
Communication between UAC and UAS is client/server and peer-to–peer.
Typically, a SIP endpoint is capable of functioning as both a UAC and a UAS, but it
functions only as one or the other per transaction. Whether the endpoint functions as a
UAC or a UAS depends on the UA that initiates the request.
This section introduces the VP530 IP video phone. The VP530 IP video phone is a
endpoint in the overall network topology, which is designed to interoperate with other
compatible equipments including application servers, media servers,
internet-working gateways, voice bridges, and other endpoints. The VP530 IP video
phone is characterized by a large number of functions, which simplify business
communication with a high standard of security and can work seamlessly with a large
number of SIP PBXs.
The VP530 IP video phone provides a powerful and flexible IP communication solution
for Ethernet TCP/IP networks, delivering excellent voice quality. The high-resolution
graphic display supplies content in multiple languages for system status, call history
and directory access. The VP530 IP video phone also supports advanced
functionalities, including LDAP, Busy Lamp Field, Shared Call Appearance and
Network Conference.
The VP530 IP video phone complies with the SIP standard (RFC 3261), and it can only be
used within a network that supports this type of phone.
For successfully operating as SIP endpoints in your network, the VP530 IP video phone
must meet the following requirements:
A working IP network is established.
Routers are configured for VoIP.
VoIP gateways are configured for SIP.
The latest (or compatible) firmware of the VP530 IP video phone is available.
A call server is active and configured to receive and send SIP messages.
