What is Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)?

See how F5 solves this

SIP (session initiation protocol) is an IP telephony standard developed by the IETF to manage the creation and destruction of voice-related IP networking sessions. As voice, data, and video communications become more integrated using IP-based networks, applications will increasingly use SIP signaling technology to manage connections. A text-based protocol, it is similar to HTTP and is therefore faster and easier to implement than other IP protocols.

The F5 BIG-IP® product family provides the reliability, availability and QoS necessary for SIP-enabled networks.
