Proceedings

When the Penguin Rings
Jan Vanhercke (C-CURE)

Voice over IP is an upcoming technology that is generally perceived as expensive and immature. Nevertheless solutions on the Linux platform exist and can be used today as a replacement for a traditional telephone switch.

This talk will discuss many aspects of IP telephony, including:

  • overview of the standards (H323, SIP)
  • integration with ISDN
  • architectures and functions
  • how to roll your own

The talk will be split in two parts. A more generalistic overview of the different components and concepts, and a more practical part on the Linux implementation.

  • Talk slides (pdf, )
