The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is an application-layer control (signaling) protocol for creating, modifying, and terminating sessions with one or more participants. These sessions include Internet telephone calls, multimedia distribution, and multimedia conferences.
The SIPit (SIP Interoperability Test Event) is the premier international test event for real-time IP communication using the Session Initiation Protocol. Twice a year, around fifty organizations representing over a hundred implementations engage at the SIPit for a week of testing to refine both the specification and implementation of the world's next communication infrastructure.
The purpose of the SIPit event - SIP interoperability test event - is to test for interoperability of SIP implementations, to determine the source of incompatibilities, inform new standards work, and drive refinement of the specifications.
This event is open only to implementers with working SIP implementations.
It is not a trade show, public demonstration, conference or workshop.
The individual results of the event are kept confidential.
By participating in this testing event, you agree not to separately disclose, comment on, or otherwise characterize the results of the testing event, or the operation of any individual vendor's equipment.
