standard that provides specification for
computers, equipment, and services for
multimedia communication over
packet based networks that defines how real-time
audio, video and data information is transmitted. H.323 is commonly used in

Telephony, and IP-based videoconferencing. Users can connect with other
users over the Internet and use varying products
that support H.323. This standard is based on the Internet Engineering Task

and Real-Time Control Protocol (RTCP),
with additional protocols for
