Real-Time Voice Protection with SBC Guard
Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning. Benjamin Franklin As most of my readers know, I began this blog writing about the specifics of the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). In fact, for the longest time I called this site SIP Adventures and filled these pages with scores […]
Deploying VoIP Security the NSA Way

The Great SIP Security Challenge
After taking a too-long break from No Jitter, I am back in the saddle again. Please check out my latest article. The Great SIP Security Challenge

So, even if you’ve already read through my previous explanations, you might enjoy this refresher. Calculating Bandwidth for SIP Trunks Made Easy
Planning for a Disaster
“There’s nowhere you can be that isn’t where you’re meant to be.” ― John Lennon As big of a Beatles fan that I am, I really don’t believe that. Yes, we can influence where we “are meant to be” by our actions and attitudes, but I am a firm believer that some things just happen. […]

While I can’t claim to fully understand every explanation I’m provided (I still don’t completely fathom relativity), I want the opportunity to try. I won’t […]
Ancient Modern Communications
I live in what has been called the last eastern city in the United States — Saint Paul, Minnesota. Our houses are old (I live in a 109-year-old Victorian), our roads are curvy (we have avenues that intersect avenues), and quite a few of our garages began their lives as horse barns. Still, despite the […]
Enterprise Connect Revisited
“Time is the longest distance between two places.” Tennessee Williams Time is a curious thing. Enterprise Connect 2015 ended only a short time ago and yet it already feels like the distant past. It doesn’t help that I’ve done about a million things since leaving Orlando, but even so, it wasn’t that long ago, was […]
Understanding SIP Re-INVITE
For the most part, SIP isn’t all that complicated. The messages are fairly easy to understand and the call flows are straightforward enough. In previous articles, I have shown how vendors like Avaya have implemented SIP solutions that make it more difficult to follow some call flows, but even they become manageable once you understand […]
