1.1 Applications

The filter can be used in the following scenarios:

Corporations. Corporations which operate their infrastructure be-

hind NAT and/or firewalls can talk to the public Internet through the

filter.

Operators. Operators offer the NAT traversal feature to their cus-

tomers. Using the scalability feature of the filter, the operation of

large networks becomes possible.

Record specific calls for legal purposes. In many countries, opera-

tors must provide the possibility to record certain calls on request.

The filter can perform this task.

Recording can be used for legal proofing (brokers, etc). The filter is

fully compliant with other SIP equipment and can, for example, put

between a PSTN gateway and SIP phones.

1.2 Features

The filter offers powerful features based on modern VoIP technol-

ogy:

The built-in RFC3261-compliant SIP proxy makes additional exter-

nal SIP logic superfluous and simplifies the system setup.

A built-in RFC3489-compatible STUN server for single IP addresses

allows clients to self-refresh their bindings

Support for instant messaging, presence and all other SIP-compli-

ant applications.

Rich logging features allow easy maintenance.

Recording functions based on number lists and expressions offer a

flexible way of filtering out information.

Recordings can be saved in WAV file format (the data rate is 6 MB

per hour).

Almost stateless operation allows the filter to be used in server

farms. This offers a tremendous scalability and redundancy making

the product suitable for large operators.
