19. Charter • Charter is available on the net. • Main Items: • Prepare policies and guidelines for the security architecture for APAN Organization. • To raise the security awareness and knowledge within APAN community, and • To cooperate with other international security efforts to raise security awareness, capabilities and interoperation globally. • Bi-annual Joint sessions/ Workshops/Tutorials and WG meetings during APAN meetings. (Potentially with NOC and Measurement WG ). • Security architecture includes protection of the physical, intellectual, and electronic assets of the APAN • The security architecture must address issues relating to authentication, authorization, confidentiality, data integrity non-repudiation, and isolation.

21. New Working Group in APAN • Proposal for an APAN Engineering Team/Working Group, part of the APAN “Network Technology”, called “SIP Working Group” • Interim Chair: Stephen.Kingham@aarnet.edu.au • The group will need a work plan • What do we need to peer/promote APAN SIP • How to peer VoIP, H.323 and SIP (routing) • Standardise on a Dial-plan • Who has Equipment, Gateways and or MCUs • Authorisation between VoIP Domains • Co-operate with groups working on QoS Network Technology Area Meeting – New WG (SIP)

22. Objective: Help get people and organisation started Over one whole day workshop. Activity: Bring a PC with a defined Unix build. build a SER SIP Server Configure some SIP clients Network the servers using DNS, preferably with pre-configured DNS entry in your Organisations DNS. Make calls. Take SIP Server back to home country/organisation. Make calls to other Countries who participate in SIP.edu. Hands on workshop at next APAN meeting Network Technology Area Meeting – New WG (SIP)

23. Other possible areas of collaboration • Routing – TRIP • Authorisation – who is allowed to make calls to where via my domain • QoS between Domains • VoIP interconnect • Others? Network Technology Area Meeting – New WG (SIP)
