IP, SIP, URI AND IP TELEPHONY IP stands for Internet Protocol and is the standard protocol for transferring information over the Internet between computers and other devices. The same standard is normally used in local networks too. An IP address is the unique network address that a computer has in the network. An IP phone is a phone that, like a PC, is connected to the network/Internet. Like the PC, it has an IP address and the call is transmitted as data packets over the network.
IP, SIP, URI AND IP TELEPHONY These addresses are designed like email addresses, i.e. name@domain, for example bob@ company.com. A complete URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) is created when the protocol that is used to communicate with the resource is added to the address. A URI might look like this: sip:bob@company.com. URIs can be used instead of phone numbers to make calls from one IP phone to another.
