Audio prompts over the telephone requesting touch-tone or spoken input from

Voice over Internet Protocol. A set of facilities for managing the delivery of 
voice information using IP. Voice information is sent in digital form in discrete 
packets over the Internet instead of in analog form over PSTN. A major 
advantage of VoIP is that it avoids the tolls charged by ordinary telephone 
service.

VoIP dialing groups allow system administrators to place callers at different 
prompts according to the dialed number. Callers can also be placed directly in a 
meeting by setting the application to DIDMeeting and sending the digits for the 
meeting ID. Dialing groups are configurable on the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 
H.323/SIP Gateway. The configuration consists of a table that maps incoming 
dialed patterns to an application type and digits.

Virtual Private Network. A restricted network that uses public wires to connect 
nodes. A VPN encapsulates, or “tunnels,” private data cheaply, reliably, and 
securely through a public network, usually the Internet.
