This course is structured into two complementary components: a theoretical segment and a practical segment. The one-day theoretical introduction covers the motivation, philosophy, fundamental principles, and operational rules of the SIP protocol, along with its application in implementing telecom services, with a specific focus on IP telephony and VoIP. The subsequent two-day practical segment allows participants to master the operational aspects of services through hands-on laboratory exercises. These exercises provide a detailed insight into configuring SIP telephony architecture components, analysing SIP signalling at both message sequence chart and internal message structure levels, and addressing typical issues and troubleshooting, including security and telecom fraud concerns. Instructors will share their extensive experience in deploying, operating, and managing SIP telephony, including virtualization and cloud-based solutions. The practical component utilises both SIP hardphones and softphones, alongside IP telephony servers such as Asterisk and Freeswitch. Participants can leverage the trainers' rich technical and business expertise in IP telephony to submit their own problems and questions. These will be integrated into the agenda during the wrap-up session to supplement the training and address current urgent client needs. The training is designed for participants with foundational knowledge and experience in telecom services, specifically VoIP and IP networking.
