The aim of this diploma thesis is to get accustomed with the SIP protocol and with the problematics of attacks targeting this protocol, with the emphasis on DoS and DDoS attacks. The thesis focuses on detailed classification of the attacks, possibilities and forms of generation of the attacks and methodics of defense against them. The attacks of the flood type are especially stressed because they are easily generated and the SIP components are very prone to these attacks. Prototype implementations of the most important ideas concerning attack generation and protection against these attacks are also part of this thesis. Practical tests of the implementations performed in a simulated SIP environment are also included. 1

The diploma thesis focuses on the VoIP technology optimization and performance management. The diploma thesis presents the theoretical basis of IP telephony and measurement of its quality. The thesis primarily deals with practical measurements of VoIP calls quality. Asterisk softswitch, various types of IP phones and simulated degradation of signal using Linux software router are used for measurements. Procedural diagram of VoIP technology real deployment is designed based on these measurements.

Master's Thesis is engaged on possibilities connect SIP server to telephone network on FIT. The main reason is that employees can call to university, when they are out of faculty. For resolution we will use SIP server Asterisk, which will be serving as authorization server for users. Next Asterisk will ensure transmission numbers to SIP address with ENUM. In the practical part we will verify the functionality.

In this graduation thesis wants introduce possibilities of voice transportation in IP networks like Internet. There are described behaviors of IP network, internet connectivity possibilities, voice protocols included Skype and economical outputs. There are mapped positives and negatives of technology including implementation issues. All economic comparisons are made to Telefonica O2 Czech Republic Inc., which is still telecommunication company with majority in the Czech Republic. There are compared samples of VoIP providers with preferences like company live time, lowest cost and guaranteed quality. Description starts with model situation and continues to real case studies. Case studies describe economic calculation, implementation and target analysis. There are three case studies: small company with fast migration in one time, medium company witch accelerated migration in two steps and large company with conservative and control migration in three steps.

My master’s thesis is focused on designing and creating communication network, which provides communication between two independent networks through encrypted tunnel. My solution is based on routers formed by older personal computers with FreeBSD like a operating system. Between routers is created static encrypted tunnel by using IPSec protocol. Voice services provides packet oriented exchange Asterisk with support of signaling protocol SIP. This solution can be used eg. for connecting remote branch to headquarters of company and then can branch utilize shrared resources. To headquarters can connect also remote workers from their home. In this case are used SSL certificates to authentication of user. This scenario is very required today.

This work deals with accessible communications technologies and their possible usage in firms. It is necessary to have a survey about types and trends of communications technologies at proposal of communications network. It is important to choose the combination that is suitable with its reliability, achievement and price.

This diploma thesis is focused on the implementation of the technology VoIP in the remote branch offices of a big company. There are used the current WAN lines, which have been so far used only for transfer of data. Implementation of IP telephony is extending the utilization of those lines and at the same time the costs for running of the telephone services are reduced. There are described the models for proposal and also the proposal for solution of IP telephony for a specific company.

Issue of this diploma thesis is focused on analysis of audio codecs used within IP telephony. Attention of teoretical part is given mostly to audio codecs according to ITU-T recommendations, but also to signaling protocols used here. For practical part of analysis is chosen router Cisco 2821 and IP phones Cisco 7975G. Configuration is done over operating system Cisco IOS. Chosen signaling protocol is SCCP. For analysis itself are chosen 2 analysers – L-580FX and Fluke NetTool. These are used in combination with program Wireshark. Analysed parameters are latency, packet lost, bandwidth, jitter and mean opinion score. Measured values are presented in graphs and tables and they are discussed. Next output of the thesis is laboratory excercise, which deals with analysis of audio codecs.

The master’s thesis presents routing protocols, SIP handshake, describes modern VoIP networks and its features. Thesis is primary focused on networks with integrated MPLS. The most known advantages and disadvantages were described of modern network based on such technology. Further, networks and a router with installed Cisco Call Manager Express 7.1 were configured, which is provided by CISCO. For recreating of fully working telephone network IP PBX10 has been used from SMC Networks. For connection between different phones within these integrated networks, SIP trunk was configured on SMC PBX10 as well as on router, which is connecting three configured Cisco IP phones. Each phone has its own number according to the dial plan. For calls from one network to another the special pattern has been established, so the number of each caller can be easily identified by added digit. On one of the CISCO routers was shown a configuration of MPLS and OSPF protocols. With an analyzer VePAL TX300e, the lab network has been measured to analyze QoS parameters of the network according to standard RFC 2544. Thesis also gives references to lab devices, which have been used accordingly to the work.

This thesis focuses on enterprise VoIP telephony network security. Introduces brief comparison of old analog and digital voice networks and IP telephone networks with special focus on VoIP system security. The goal of the thesis is to identify the risks of implementation and operation of VoIP technologies in enterprise environment and so thesis brings some conclusion how to minimalize or avoid these risks. First two chapters briefly introduce the development of telephony technologies with differentiation of enterprise telephone network from public telephone networks. Further it describes individual technologies, digitalization of voice, processing the signal and VoIP protocols and components. Third chapter focuses on infrastructure of telephony networks with special interest for architecture of IP telephony and ways of establishing call processing. It describes data flows for further security risk analysis, which this technology came with. Fifth chapter is about enterprise security standards in common and is trying to describe information security management system (ISMS) adopting VoIP technology. Individual security threats and risks are described in sixth chapter, along with known methods how to avoid them. Final parts of thesis concludes of two real situation studies of threats and risks of VoIP technologies implemented in environment of small commercial enterprise and medium size enterprise, in this example represented by University of economics. These chapters conclude theoretical problems shown on practical examples.
