You will learn how SIP works within IP-telephony, as well as multimedia solutions, such as presence and Instant Messaging (IM). This course will cover how SIP works both in wireline and wireless solutions and you will need basic knowledge within VoIP and SIP to participate in this course.
Target Audience
The target group for this course is people that need to understand the SIP signalling protocol in detail. Among these people we will find testers, developers and implementers.
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge about the TCP/IP protocol suite and about Voice over packet networks equivalent to our course SIP Fundamentals.
Exercises
This is a theoretical training with practical exercises.
