Abstract
SIP-based Internet telephony systems need to be appropriately dimensioned, as
the call and
registration rate can reach several thousand requests a second. This draft proposes
an initial simple
set of metrics for evaluating and benchmarking the performance of SIP proxy,
redirect and
registrar servers. The benchmark SIPstone-A expresses a weighted average of
these metrics.
A test application that implements SIPStone is available from http://sipp.sourceforge.net
