The DMR Application Interface (AIS) is a SIP based interconnection for DMR Tier II and Tier III radio network voice and data communications. AIS Interface specification is developed by DMR Association. Being level 2 member of DMR Association, Walkie Labs LLC is authorized to develop solutions based on AIS Interface. Kirisun DMR Networks are controlled by WalkieFleet server via AIS protocol.
