JsSIP is a library for the programming language JavaScript. It takes advantage of SIP and WebRTC to provide a fully featured SIP endpoint in any website. JsSIP allows any website to get real-time communication features using audio and video. It makes it possible to build SIP user agents that send and receive audio and video calls as well as and text messages.[2]

Standards
editJsSIP implements the following SIP specifications:
- RFC 3261 — SIP: Session Initiation Protocol
- RFC 3311 — SIP Update Method
- RFC 3326 — The Reason Header Field for SIP
- RFC 3327 — SIP Extension Header Field for Registering Non-Adjacent Contacts (Path header)

Interoperability
editSIP proxies, servers
editJsSIP uses the SIP over WebSocket transport for sending and receiving SIP requests and responses, and thus, it requires a SIP proxy/server with WebSocket support. Currently the following SIP servers have been tested and are using JsSIP as the basis for their WebRTC Gateway functionality:
- FreeSWITCH
- FRAFOS ABC WebRTC Gateway Archived 20 July 2016 at the Wayback Machine
- OverSIP
- Kamailio
- Asterisk
- reSIProcate and repro
WebRTC web browsers
editAt the media plane (audio calls), JsSIP version 0.2.0 works with Chrome browser from version 24. At the signaling plane (SIP protocol), JsSIP runs in any WebSocket capable browser.
