Abstract

We designed the GISP (generic signaling service protocol) protocol to contribute to the effort of the NSIS (next steps in signaling) IETF working group in defining a generic IP signaling protocol. In this paper, we summarize the GISP characteristics and focus on its performance results. In particular, a comparison with the GIST (general Internet signaling transport) protocol under development by the NSIS WG is provided. We study performance aspects such as session setup and modification latencies, memory and CPU consumption. Our results highlight good performance of the GISP and validate the implementation and design choices.
