In carrier networks VoIP has been mainly deployed in enterprise networks or as a trunking technology to reduce transport costs in voice backbone networks. In order to deploy a VoIP network that is capable of providing a PSTN scale solution the following issues must be addressed: What services need to be offered, for example full PSTN equivalence, a more restricted? “cheap second line” service, or a simple user-to-user voice service. Voip focus on a service set that provides full PSTN equivalence – what we are...

...your sells. It is the world’s largest implementation of client computing and internetworking. Paid, sponsored advertisements are the fastest form of powerful marketing tools that match consumer interests with advertising messages at the right moment. An intranet can be used in a business to allow authorized customers to have limited access to its internet intranet. Authorized buyers could link to a portion of the company’s intranet to obtain information about the costs and features of the company’s products. The Intranet’s firewall makes sure that only authorized clients and buyers access the company’s products. It does this by ensuring that the access to the company’s internal data is limited and secure. Intranets are great ways to sell your product and to get it out on the market. Another way to stay in contact with customers, suppliers and employees more easily is wireless communication. It also provides more flexible arrangements for organizing work. Internet networking provides connectivity for internal private intranets that can be accessed by different computers inside and outside the company or organization. Cell phones can also be used for business purposes. Cell phones can be used for voice communication, texting, emails, instant messaging, photos, games and even transmitting corporate data for companies or your job. A cell phone is another great way to keep in touch...

...Travis Luther IT242 Week 2 VoIP Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is a technology that allows you to make voice calls using a broadband Internet connection instead of a regular phone line. The technology was introduced in 1995, and has developed into an enormous enterprise since then. I will be presenting an overview of the technologies that brought VoIP to fruition, the methods of connecting, benefits, and drawbacks. IP Telephony allows organizations to reuse their existing network infrastructure. With IP Telephony, employees can use IP handsets or softphones anywhere on the corporate network. Generally only a single Ethernet port is required to provide both desktop and IP Telephony (voice) services. Power over Ethernet using the 802.3af standard or pre-standards based power can be used with great advantage throughout an IP Telephony environment to power other network appliances such as 802.11a/b/g wireless access points, IP video surveillance cameras and IP phones. IP Telephony systems also provide the advantage of lower cost moves/adds/changes administration allowing employees and departments to more easily move from location to location without the burdens of administration and service interruption. Because IP Telephony works with packet networks, the model of support used for IP Telephony can be the same as the one used for the desktop, thereby reducing and simplifying staffing requirements. Since the IP phone or softphone is an intelligent endpoint on the network...

...as the business aiming at profit increase and progressing growth , thus delivering better quality services to our customers, we have to think about our operational cost and the ways of reducing it. One such way is the implementation of Voice over Internet Protocol ( VOIP ), also known as the internet telephony. VOIP has become more popular in recent years as companies need to cut costs and improve communication between increasingly mobile employees and increasingly global customers. The first Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) call was made back in 1995 between two PCs. Initially, this was just a technological novelty. However, by 1998, VoIP had already begun establishing itself as a low cost means of providing calls over long distances. It was estimated to carry about one percent of the US phone traffic. Thirteen years later, VoIP has managed to revolutionize the manner in which business and residential communications take place. Infonetics estimates that about 25 percent of the total international phone traffic is handled as VoIP. So what exactly is VoIP and how does it work? Let me give a few basics about VoIP. Many people have used a computer and a microphone to record a human voice or other sounds. The process involves sampling the sound that is heard by the computer at a very high rate (at least 8,000 times per second or more) and storing those "samples" in memory or in a file on the computer. Each sample of sound is just a very tiny bit of the person's voice or other...

...organizationsr IP network, and enable big organizations to provide local IVR and queuing corporate services without consuming expensive bandwidth on the core IP backbone Alternatively, the ISN routes and transfers the call through the IP network, in effect turning the IP network into a giant user-controlled switch.More Efficient Call Routing and Transfers: When a call has finished receiving IVR/queuing treatment on the ISN, the call is routed to its destination without needing a bridge inside the ISN As a result a lesser number of ports are required on the ISN than on some other IVR systems As an Open, Future-Proof Architecture, the ISN performs in an open environment using common Internet technologies and methods. Scalability and Operational Simplicity: The Cisco ISN solution can be customized to solve big organizationsr communication requirements. ISN servers can easily be added to big organizationsr existing infrastructure if the communication needs of the business are growing. The ISN`s technology also simplifies operational management. It fits Big organizationsr Communication needs as the Cisco ISN has the ability to operate in a pure IP environment and it can also be integrated with big organizationsr existing telephony infrastructure through the use of voice-over-IP (VoIP) gateways.

...will be connected by a backbone IP network. The organization will be using a converged network that allows data and real-time voice traffic to traverse the same packet-switched network. The data traffic will consist of FTP (file transfer protocol) and email traffic and the voice traffic will be a VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) implementation. You will experiment with various router queuing policies to see how routers within a TCP/IP network can be utilized to support QoS (Quality of Service) within a converged network that is based on TCP/IP. Explanation and Background Traditional voice and data applications have been kept on separate networks. The voice traffic is confined to a circuit-switched network while data traffic is on a packet-switched network. Often, businesses keep these networks in separate rooms, or on different floors, within buildings that they own or lease (and many still do). This requires a lot of additional space and technical manpower to maintain these two distinct infrastructures. Today’s networks call for the convergence of these circuit-switching and packet-switching networks, such that voice and data traffic will traverse a common network based on packet switching. A common WAN technology used for this purpose is TCP/IP because it operates at Layer 3. It is capable of delivering voice and data services right to the desktop. However, voice and data traffic require different quality of service guarantees, because voice is interactive and takes place...
