sipnms is a web-based network management tool which uses SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) to monitor remote nodes.

Concept
It employs synthetic monitoring to emulate client transactions and these transactions can be implemented using Message scripts as per the nodes requirement. This method is useful to monitor VOIP systems performance in the perspective of the customers. Most important part of this concept is that SIP messages can be passed beyond the node directly connected to the internet. These messages can be converted to by the node behind to required protocols (H.323, SS7, Etc.), so that they traverse to destination nodes. Nodes on a telecommunication network uses different criteria such as number level and message types to route cal control messages. Using message scripts it is possible to send different messages (To / From different numbers or message types) destined to different nodes inside depending upon the response type and time for the response sipnms can generate performance and operations level of the systems under the monitor.
