SIP and Open Standards
CounterPath is actively involved in many Working Groups within the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) including:
- SIP: Session Initiation Protocol
- SIMPLE: SIP for Instant Messaging and Presence Leveraging Extensions
- SIPPING: Session Initiation Proposal Investigation
- MMUSIC: Multiparty Multimedia Session Control
- XCON: Centralized Conferencing
- XMPP: Presence, IM and File Transfer
Standards Compliance
Request for Comments (RFC) documents encompass new research, innovations and methodologies applicable to Internet technologies. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) adopts some of the proposals published in RFCs as Internet standards.
The following is a list of RFCs to which CounterPath is compliant.
