STUN
Simple Traversal of UDP over NATs, is a network protocol allowing clients behind NAT (or multiple NATs) to find out its public address, the type of NAT it is behind and the internet side port associated by the NAT with a particular local port. This information is used to set up UDP communication between two hosts that are both behind NAT routers. The protocol is defined in RFC 3489. STUN will usually work good with
TCP
Transmission Control Protocol, is one of the core protocols of the Internet protocol suite. Using TCP, applications on networked hosts can create connections to one another, over which they can exchange data or packets. The protocol guarantees reliable and
TFTP
Trivial File Transfer Protocol, is a very simple file transfer protocol, with the functionality of a very basic form of FTP; It uses UDP (port 69) as its transport protocol.
UDP
User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is one of the core protocols of the Internet protocol suite. Using UDP, programs on networked computers can send short messages known as datagrams to one another. UDP does not provide the reliability and ordering guarantees that TCP does; datagrams may arrive out of order or go missing without notice. However, as a result, UDP is faster and more efficient for many lightweight or
VAD
Voice Activity Detection or Voice Activity Detector is an algorithm used in speech processing wherein, the presence or absence of human speech is detected from the audio samples.

VoIP
Voice over IP
VoIP encompasses many protocols. All the protocols do some form of signalling of call capabilities and transport of voice data from one point to another. e.g: SIP, H.323, etc.
