This document specifies interworking between the Session Initiation
Protocol (SIP) and QSIG within corporate telecommunication networks
(also known as enterprise networks).  SIP is an Internet
application-layer control (signalling) protocol for creating,
modifying, and terminating sessions with one or more participants.
These sessions include, in particular, telephone calls.  QSIG is a
signalling protocol for creating, modifying, and terminating
circuit-switched calls (in particular, telephone calls) within Private
Integrated Services Networks (PISNs).  QSIG is specified in a number
of Ecma Standards and published also as ISO/IEC standards.  This document 
specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the Internet Community, 
and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.

This document is a product of the Session Initiation Proposal 
Investigation Working Group of the IETF.
