Session Initiation Protocol (protocol) Session Initiation Protocol - (SIP) A very simple text-based application-layer control protocol. It creates, modifies, and terminates sessions with one or more participants. Such sessions include Internet telephony and multimedia conferences. It is described in RFC 2543. (SIP) is an industry standard signaling protocol for controlling multi-media sessions, such as voice, video, and messaging, across packet based networks. SIP is an essential part of the family of Voice over IP (VoIP) technologies that is powering innovative companies, such as Tellme, to offer more services and flexibility to their customers but at significantly less cost and complexity than that of traditional voice networks.
