What Providers,
Agents and Users are saying about these courses:
According to Matt
Jolly IT Consultant, “CSP course training to a new higher level. For example,
there is nothing like the tutorials SIP available anywhere or from anyone. For
the channel partner or customer, this course provides critical insights for
successful implementation and management. The new user interface speeds
learning allowing viewers to grasp complex concepts faster than ever before.
With this course, SIP/VoIP providers can rapidly accelerate the learning
process for their channel partners which in turn accelerate revenues. Now is
the time for users and providers alike to make this course an integral part of
their business operations.”
Matt Jolly -
Consultant
............................................
“I am writing regarding Tom Cross and the onsite training and VoIP/SIP course.
By far this is the best program in place, as Tom is one of the most recognized
trainers in the United States for VoIP/SIP. It might be worth to add this
course to your sign-up package for agents around the country not only as a
profit center but something that you could co-brand and have a
"leg-up" on your competition.”
Bill Bowyer -
CEO – VoIP in America
..........................................
“The SIP certification are more than a superb primer on VoIP/SIP technology;
they are an indepth business plan for a VoIP/SIP implementation. In addition,
the VoIP/SIP diagnostic and troubleshooting guide is the most thorough approach
to SIP QoS available. I need information that informs but does not overwhelm.
Information that guides but not drives you away. The courses provide insights
and actionable information that has helped me get the technology we need sooner
but saved me a considerable amount in understanding what we didn't need. The
SIP certification course especially is a valuable one which provides much needed
information in a readily understandable format.”
Paul Daubitz -
President – ATI-TeleManagement

NEW for 2015
- Designing and Planning Scalable SIP Networks
The five areas of discussion presented (with
modifications I added) are:
Here are the
highlights in text format:
1 - Benefits
of Server Virtualization aka Abstraction
-
Distributed user endpoints and application servers
- Scalable
growth with QoS control abstraction
- MACS* via
signaling "abstraction"
*Moves,
Adds, Changes & SAS-Stand Alone Survivability - SAS enables backup for SIP
devices by the multiple "abstract" local or cloud Media Gateway(s)
2 - Benefits
of SIP Trunking
- Session
and Signaling control layers for:
- On-net (IP PBX to IP PBX)
- Off-net (IP PBX to local PSTN)
- Off-net (IP PBX to LD/IDDD PSTN)
-
SPOC/SMOC-Single/Multiple Point of Connection
- National control points for access
(vendors) - Migration path to ALL-SIP & IMS-3GPP
3 - Benefits
of Number Transparency
- End-to-end
media control (transparency) for voice or other media types
- Access to
SS7 applications for text messaging, mobility or call center routing
- Enterprise
control over call completion whether PSTN or SIP rather than provider
- Migration
path to E.164 & IMS-3GPP
4 - Benefits
of SIP Routing
- Eliminates
"mesh" network mess
- Add
intelligent Session Layer 5 routing - Maintains end-to-end media transparency
- Add media
CoS-Classes of Service - Adds SPOC NOC-Network Operations Center
- Migration
path to ALL-SIP & IMS-3GPP
- New -
SIP-SIP InterCall Working - SIP-I to SIP and H.323
5 - Benefits
of SIP Proxy Peering Networks
- Platform
for multi-vendor services
- Ensures
multiple CoS & QoS options
- Migration
path to ALL-SIP & IMS-3GPP
- Foundation
for any future network needs
- SIP Class of Service & Quality of Service
- SIP COS-Class Of Service and QoS-Quality of
Service – Ethernet meets “smart” IP
- Managing “real-time” voice with
RTCP-Real-Time Control Protocol – MRB-Metrics Report Blocks
- Inside MRB – what’s what with all the info
- SIP
Applications and Future Outlook
- SIP
Applications
– IM-Instant Messaging call screening
- SIP Presence Communicated by IM-Instant
Messaging
- Click-to-call and others
- SIP for Call Centers – calling options and
pricing benefits
- Event and "Push" Notifications
- On demand Conferencing
- Integration of additional
"third-party" developed SIP-enhanced services provides additional
business and enterprise justification for SIP trunking.
- UDDI-Universal Description, Discovery and
Integration uses standards-based services such as XML, HTTP, SOAP, TCP/IP uniform
service description and service discovery protocol. Discovery services provide
a consistent publishing interface and allow programmatic discovery
(registration) of services. Description
services provide the means for internet registration - to be found but not
advertisement or placement on search engine listings. UDDI file structures are
designed using a "publish-once-read-by-many" concept. That is, web site URL-Uniform Resource
Locator can be designed using UDDI standard file structures which can be
published to the UDDI server network.
The UDDI network can be accessed (discovered) by search engines,
customers and other list builders in a standard published (register) format. UDDI Registries and protocol servers with:
- White
Pages - Names, Address, Contact and Vcard information
- Yellow
Pages - Industry categorizations and taxonomies
- Green
Pages - Technical information including internal URL file discovery structures
- UDDI is also designed to replace the
robot.txt search engine web site document structure concept. Here are some of
the web site description-discovery-registry information retrieved by search
engine spiders/bots and other retrieval programs.
- Voice-driven yellow pages - SALT-Speech
Applications Language Tags adds voice commands to web applications. SALT is an extended set of markup (meta) tags
based on XML-eXtensible Markup Language though compatible with HTML-Hyper-Text
Markup Language and others.
- SIP – exciting new applications
- SIP Future
Outlook
– IMS-IP Multi-media Systems –
content servers, wireless integration, media gateways, etc.
- New Detailed IMS
architecture scenarios
- WebRTC and HTML5 Internet-centric
communications environment
Here are six WebRTC “solutions scenarios.” Of course your
situation may be different, however, what I was most excited about what how
WebRTC can seamlessly work with SIP in IP-PBX environments such as Avaya,
Cisco, ShoreTel and Lync. This gives WebRTC an “overlay” approach rather rip
and replace. This is just the first part of many more discussion on this
rapidly evolving technology.
