Abstract
A system and method for distributing session initiation protocol (SIP) content to Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) devices in a local network. The system and method employ, for example, a SIP user agent (UA) and a UPnP media server (MS) that can communicate with each other so that when the SIP UA receives SIP content from a remote SIP terminal, the SIP UA and UPnP MS cooperate to enable the UPnP MS to create an object so as to provide the object including the content to a rendering device in the local network. Similarly, when a device on the local network sends an object to the UPnP MS, the UPnP MS and SIP UA cooperate to enable the SIP UA to send the content of the object as SIP content to a remote SIP terminal.
