Technical Report TR/86
Corporate Telecommunication Networks
- User Identification in a SIP/QSIG Environment
(December 2003)
This Technical Report examines means of identifying or naming
users of telephony services within a Corporate telecommunication
Network (CN) (also known as an enterprise network). Numeric names
(numbers) are used in traditional Private Integrated Services
Networks (PISNs) using QSIG as the network signalling protocol.
They are also used for external communication, e.g., with a public
Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN). Names need not be
numeric in Internet Protocol (IP) networks employing signalling
protocols such as the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). This
Technical Report therefore looks at naming schemes that are appropriate
within corporate IP networks, in particular corporate IP networks
employing SIP as the signalling protocol. It also investigates
naming schemes that are appropriate in a mixed QSIG/SIP CN and
the treatment of names at an interworking point. It details the
use of names not only for selecting a user to participate in a
call, but also as a means of identifying a user in a call to other
users in that call. ENUM and private ENUM-like services are also
examined.
