  1. Conferencing over IPActivity Group Update “What is now proved was once only imagined.” -William Blake Greg Meyer - Intel Corporation, IAL (greg.w.meyer@intel.com) CoIP Activity Group Chair

  2. H.323 Implementers Our Mission:get the most H.323 standards-based, COMPATIBLE products, fielded as SOON as possible.

  3. Specific Tasks • Standards Related • Detect and correct H.323 defects • Clarify/Standardize H.323 ambiguities • Provide input to ITU-T Implementers’ Guide • Provide arena for interoperability/compatibility • Testing scenarios / typical configurations • Specific interactions, not implementations • Cross pollination of implementation issues

  4. ISDN POTS Switched Circuit Network Internet BRI H.323 Universe H.323 MCU Router/GK H.323 endpt. w/MC H.323 Endpoint Router H.323 Endpoint H.324 Endpoint H.323 Endpoint H.323 Endpoint H.320 Endpoint Gateway H.323 Endpoint Speech-Only (telephones) H.320 Group System H.323 Gatekeeper H.323 Endpoint Firewall & H.3223 proxy Speech-Only (telephones) Gateway

  5. Interop Events • Three IMTC CoIP/ETSI TIPHON events this year plus SuperOp!99 • iNOW! AG participating at same test events

  6. What’s being tested • Richer Gatekeeper functionality • Inter-zone (LRQ) calls • Beginning Inter-domain (Annex G) calls • Multipoint • ‘Real world’ Gateway/Gatekeeper interactions • FastStart, Supplementary Services, Security • TIPHON & iNOW! phone-phone & PC-phone scenarios

  7. Example Scenario

  8. How We’re Testing • Ad-Hoc/Debug Testing • PDU-level testing • High-level scenarios • Scored Testing • High-level scenarios • Short time intervals • No debugging • Scored (new scoring system) to measure combined results • Rules of Engagement vital to cooperation & success

  9. An Ad-Hoc Example H.323 Endpoints IP Network IP GK GK Inter-Zone H.323 Endpoint MCU IP MCU IP H.321 Endpoint ATM Gateway

  10. The Changing Environment • Large room (5500 ft2) • 100 engineers • 90 test stations • LAN: Hubs, Routers, Switches • ISDN BRI & PRI • POTS analog

  11. ETSI TIPHON • Cooperative arrangements are successful! • TIPHON and CoIP work & direction are complementary • Two events hosted at ETSI facility, France

  12. Next Steps • Engineering Interoperability Events • CoIP/iNOW!/TIPHON event in Portland, November 29 - December 5 • CoIP/iNOW!/TIPHON event at ETSI, February 21 - 25 • Begin Virtual Interoperability Events • ETSI TIPHON to host infrastructure • First event this week, Nov 10th

  13. Next Steps (cont.) • Continue Alliance Development • TIA TR-41.3.4 • Form & Support Special Interest Groups (SIGs) • e.g. QOS • Others (your input here…) • Focus on amending the current, base test plans

  14. Where to get more... • Email reflector (majordomo@imtc.org) • “subscribe h323implementors (email address)” • Post to “h323implementors@imtc.org” • FTP sites for documents: • ftp.imtc-files.org/imtc-site/CoIP-AG • standard.pictel.com/avc-site • ftp.intel.com/pub/H.323/ • Contact greg.w.meyer@intel.com
