MULTIPLE NETWORKS & PROVIDERS

 One Ubiquitous IP Network
Internet traffic is IP Based

Corporate traffic is IP Based

Telephone traffic is IP Based

Teleconferencing is IP Based

ONE PROVIDER FOR ALL IP SERVICES

The “IP SERVICE PROVIDER”
• WWW / Email / UseNet
• Intranet Services
• IP Telephony Services
• Last Mile Connectivity Provider
• Web Development / Integration / Hosting
QoS – Quality of Service

Committed Bandwidth from End-to-End

Not possible through existing networks

 Internet Access Services
• Need high quality connections

• Connectivity to both local and international

Internet network is increasingly important

• QoS enables ‘CIR Based’ Pricing

 Intranet Services
• Connection between corporate facilities using IP
Protocol and Private/Public Internet
• Many companies in developing areas need high
quality connections to Corporate HQ
• ISP can provide both Internet and Intranet services
simultaneously to same customer
• Example is MCI/WorldCom – ON-NET

– QoS IMPOSSIBLE!
Types of IP Telephony Services Today
• Case 1: Computer User – YESTERDAY
Computer -> IP Network -> IP Gateway -> Phone

• Case 2: Telephone User – TODAY

Phone -> IP Gateway -> IP Network -> IP Gateway -> Phone

• Case 3: Corporate Bypass – TODAY

PBX -> Private Gateway -> IP Network -> Private Gateway -> PBX

• Case 4: IP Telephone User – VERY SOON !!!

IP Telephone -> IP Network -> IP Gateway -> Phone
How it works: Computer to Phone
