Which service needs to run to connect to other unified communication applications?

Question

Accepted Answer

The service that needs to run to connect to other unified communication applications is the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP).

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is a signaling protocol used for initiating, maintaining, modifying, and terminating real-time sessions involving video, voice, messaging, and other communications applications.
SIP is commonly used in Voice over IP (VoIP) systems and allows for the establishment and control of multimedia communication sessions.
By running the SIP service, network engineers can enable communication between different unified communication applications, ensuring seamless connectivity and interoperability.
Examples of unified communication applications that require SIP for connectivity include softphones, video conferencing systems, instant messaging platforms, and presence services.
