How Does VoIP Work?Human voice must be packetized

Uses circuit-switching mechanism

Voice packetization involves appending headers with routing information

Multiple voice samples are combined into a packet

Voice packet is switched hop-by-hop through the network

Protocols of VoIP H.323 Media Gateway Control Protocol

(MGCP) Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) H.248 (also known as Media

Gateway Control (Megaco)) Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) Real-time Transport Control

Network Design for VoIP Step 1: Identify the services you plan to sell. Step 2: Identify the type of carriers or providers with

which you plan to interconnect. Step 3: Determine the interconnection types you

plan to use. Step 4: Determine the call topologies you plan to

use. Step 5: Identify the appropriate deployment

scenario. Step 6: Identify the functional areas you require. Step 7: Identify the required hardware and software

components. Step 8: Identify design and scalability issues. Step 9: Configure and provision components.
