Highlights include: H.323, the ITU standard for transmitting mixed media signals via LANS and WANs; SIP, the IETF's Session Initiation Protocol used for IP teleconferencing; Megaco Protocol, a combined IETF/ITU standard for multimedia conferencing; and MGCP, a call processing protocol published as an informational RFC.
