1.  Overview

   The call flows shown in this document were developed in the design of
   a SIP IP communications network.  They represent an example minimum
   set of functionality.

   It is the hope of the authors that this document will be useful for
   SIP implementers, designers, and protocol researchers alike and will
   help further the goal of a standard implementation of RFC 3261 [1].
   These flows represent carefully checked and working group reviewed
   scenarios of the most basic examples as a companion to the
   specifications.

RFC 3665              SIP Basic Call Flow Examples         December 2003


   These call flows are based on the current version 2.0 of SIP in RFC
   3261 [1] with SDP usage described in RFC 3264 [2].  Other RFCs also
   comprise the SIP standard but are not used in this set of basic call
   flows.

   Call flow examples of SIP interworking with the PSTN through gateways
   are contained in a companion document, RFC 3666 [5].

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED",  "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, RFC 2119 [4].

1.1.  General Assumptions

   A number of architecture, network, and protocol assumptions underlie
   the call flows in this document.  Note that these assumptions are not
   requirements.  They are outlined in this section so that they may be
   taken into consideration and to aid in the understanding of the call
   flow examples.

   The authentication of SIP User Agents in these example call flows is
   performed using HTTP Digest as defined in [1] and [3].

   Some Proxy Servers in these call flows insert Record-Route headers
   into requests to ensure that they are in the signaling path for
   future message exchanges.

   These flows show TCP, TLS, and UDP for transport.  See the discussion
   in RFC 3261 for details on the transport issues for SIP.

1.2.  Legend for Message Flows

   Dashed lines (---) represent signaling messages that are mandatory to
   the call scenario.  These messages can be SIP or PSTN signaling.  The
   arrow indicates the direction of message flow.

   Double dashed lines (===) represent media paths between network
   elements.

   Messages with parentheses around their name represent optional
   messages.

   Messages are identified in the Figures as F1, F2, etc.  This
   references the message details in the list that follows the Figure.
   Comments in the message details are shown in the following form:

    /* Comments. */

1.3.  SIP Protocol Assumptions

   This document does not prescribe the flows precisely as they are
   shown, but rather the flows illustrate the principles for best
   practice.  They are best practices usages (orderings, syntax,
   selection of features for the purpose, handling of error) of SIP
   methods, headers and parameters.  IMPORTANT: The exact flows here
   must not be copied as is by an implementer due to specific incorrect
   characteristics that were introduced into the document for
   convenience and are listed below.  To sum up, the basic flows
   represent well-reviewed examples of SIP usage, which are best common
   practice according to IETF consensus.

   For simplicity in reading and editing the document, there are a
   number of differences between some of the examples and actual SIP
   messages.  For example, the HTTP Digest responses are not actual MD5
   encodings.  Call-IDs are often repeated, and CSeq counts often begin
   at 1.  Header fields are usually shown in the same order.  Usually
   only the minimum required header field set is shown, others that
   would normally be present such as Accept, Supported, Allow, etc are
   not shown.

   ALG                          alg1.atlanta.example.com    192.0.2.128

2.  SIP Registration

   Registration binds a particular device Contact URI with a SIP user
   Address of Record (AOR).

2.1.  Successful New Registration

    Bob                        SIP Server
     |                               |
     |          REGISTER F1          |
     |------------------------------>|
     |      401 Unauthorized F2      |
     |<------------------------------|
     |          REGISTER F3          |
     |------------------------------>|
     |            200 OK F4          |
     |<------------------------------|
     |                               |

   Bob sends a SIP REGISTER request to the SIP server.  The request
   includes the user's contact list.  This flow shows the use of HTTP
   Digest for authentication using TLS transport.  TLS transport is used
   due to the lack of integrity protection in HTTP Digest and the danger
   of registration hijacking without it, as described in RFC 3261 [1].
   The SIP server provides a challenge to Bob.  Bob enters her/his valid
   user ID and password.  Bob's SIP client encrypts the user information
   according to the challenge issued by the SIP server and sends the
   response to the SIP server.  The SIP server validates the user's
   credentials.  It registers the user in its contact database and
   returns a response (200 OK) to Bob's SIP client.  The response
   includes the user's current contact list in Contact headers.  The
   format of the authentication shown is HTTP digest.  It is assumed
   that Bob has not previously registered with this Server.

2.2.  Update of Contact List

   Bob                        SIP Server
     |                               |

     |<------------------------------|
     |                               |

   Bob wishes to update the list of addresses where the SIP server will
   redirect or forward INVITE requests.

   Bob sends a SIP REGISTER request to the SIP server.  Bob's request
   includes an updated contact list.  Since the user already has
   authenticated with the server, the user supplies authentication
   credentials with the request and is not challenged by the server. The
   SIP server validates the user's credentials.  It registers the user
   in its contact database, updates the user's contact list, and returns
   a response (200 OK) to Bob's SIP client.  The response includes the
   user's current contact list in Contact headers.

     |                               |

   Bob sends a register request to the Proxy Server containing no
   Contact headers, indicating the user wishes to query the server for
   the user's current contact list.  Since the user already has
   authenticated with the server, the user supplies authentication
   credentials with the request and is not challenged by the server.
   The SIP server validates the user's credentials.  The server returns
   a response (200 OK) which includes the user's current registration
   list in Contact headers.

   Bob wishes to cancel their registration with the SIP server.  Bob
   sends a SIP REGISTER request to the SIP server.  The request has an
   expiration period of 0 and applies to all existing contact locations.
   Since the user already has authenticated with the server, the user
   supplies authentication credentials with the request and is not
   challenged by the server.  The SIP server validates the user's
   credentials.  It clears the user's contact list, and returns a
   response (200 OK) to Bob's SIP client.

   Bob sends a SIP REGISTER request to the SIP Server.  The SIP server
   provides a challenge to Bob.  Bob enters her/his user ID and
   password.  Bob's SIP client encrypts the user information according
   to the challenge issued by the SIP server and sends the response to
   the SIP server.  The SIP server attempts to validate the user's
   credentials, but they are not valid (the user's password does not
   match the password established for the user's account).  The server
   returns a response (401 Unauthorized) to Bob's SIP client.

3.  SIP Session Establishment

   This section details session establishment between two SIP User
   Agents (UAs): Alice and Bob.  Alice (sip:alice@atlanta.example.com)
   and Bob (sip:bob@biloxi.example.com) are assumed to be SIP phones or
   SIP-enabled devices.  The successful calls show the initial
   signaling, the exchange of media information in the form of SDP
   payloads, the establishment of the media session, then finally the
   termination of the call.

   HTTP Digest authentication is used by Proxy Servers to authenticate
   the caller Alice.  It is assumed that Bob has registered with Proxy
   Server Proxy 2 as per Section 2 to be able to receive the calls via
   the Proxy.

3.1.  Successful Session Establishment

   Alice                     Bob

   In this scenario, Alice completes a call to Bob using two proxies
   Proxy 1 and Proxy 2.  The initial INVITE (F1) contains a pre-loaded
   Route header with the address of Proxy 1 (Proxy 1 is configured as a
   default outbound proxy for Alice).  The request does not contain the
   Authorization credentials Proxy 1 requires, so a 407 Proxy
   Authorization response is sent containing the challenge information.
   A new INVITE (F4) is then sent containing the correct credentials and
   the call proceeds.  The call terminates when Bob disconnects by
   initiating a BYE message.

   Proxy 1 inserts a Record-Route header into the INVITE message to
   ensure that it is present in all subsequent message exchanges.  Proxy
   2 also inserts itself into the Record-Route header.  The ACK (F15)
   and BYE (F18) both have a Route header.

   In this scenario, Alice completes a call to Bob using two proxies
   Proxy 1 and Proxy 2.  Alice has valid credentials in both domains.
   Since the initial INVITE (F1) does not contain the Authorization
   credentials Proxy 1 requires, so a 407 Proxy Authorization response
   is sent containing the challenge information. A new INVITE (F4) is

   then sent containing the correct credentials and the call proceeds
   after Proxy 2 challenges and receives valid credentials.  The call
   terminates when Bob disconnects by initiating a BYE message.

   Proxy 1 inserts a Record-Route header into the INVITE message to
   ensure that it is present in all subsequent message exchanges.  Proxy
   2 also inserts itself into the Record-Route header.

   In this scenario, Alice completes a call to Bob via a Proxy Server.
   Alice is configured for a primary SIP Proxy Server Proxy 1 and a
   secondary SIP Proxy Server Proxy 2 (Or is able to use DNS SRV records
   to locate Proxy 1 and Proxy 2).  Alice has valid credentials for both
   domains.  Proxy 1 is out of service and does not respond to INVITEs
   (it is reachable, but unresponsive).  Alice then completes the call
   to Bob using Proxy 2.

   Alice completes a call to Bob through a ALG (Application Layer
   Gateway) and a SIP Proxy.  The routing through the ALG is
   accomplished using a pre-loaded Route header in the INVITE F1.  Note
   that the media stream setup is not end-to-end - the ALG terminates
   both media streams and bridges them.  This is done by the ALG
   modifying the SDP in the INVITE (F1) and 200 OK (F10) messages, and
   possibly any 18x or ACK messages containing SDP.

   In addition to firewall traversal, this Back-to-Back User Agent
   (B2BUA) could be used as part of an anonymizer service (in which all
   identifying information on Alice would be removed), or to perform
   codec media conversion, such as mu-law to A-law conversion of PCM on
   an international call.

   Also note that Proxy 2 does not Record-Route in this call flow.

   In this scenario, Alice places a call to Bob using first a Redirect
   server then a Proxy Server.  The INVITE message is first sent to the
   Redirect Server.  The Server returns a 302 Moved Temporarily response
   (F2) containing a Contact header with Bob's current SIP address.
   Alice then generates a new INVITE and sends to Bob via the Proxy
   Server and the call proceeds normally.  In this example, no SDP is
   present in the INVITE, so the SDP is carried in the ACK message.

   The call is terminated when Bob sends a BYE message.

   This example shows a session in which the media changes midway
   through the session.  When Bob's IP address changes during the
   session, Bob sends a re-INVITE containing a new Contact and SDP
   (version number incremented) information to A.  In this flow, the
   proxy does not Record-Route so is not in the SIP messaging path after
   the initial exchange.

   In this scenario, Alice gives up on the call before Bob answers
   (sends a 200 OK response).  Alice sends a CANCEL (F9) since no final
   response had been received from Bob.  If a 200 OK to the INVITE had
   crossed with the CANCEL, Alice would have sent an ACK then a BYE to
   Bob in order to properly terminate the call.

   Note that the CANCEL message is acknowledged with a 200 OK on a hop
   by hop basis, rather than end to end.

   In this scenario, Bob is busy and sends a 486 Busy Here response to
   Alice's INVITE.  Note that the non-2xx response is acknowledged on a
   hop-by-hop basis instead of end-to-end.  Also note that many SIP UAs
   will not return a 486 response, as they have multiple line and other
   features.

   In this example, there is no response from Bob to Alice's INVITE
   messages being re-transmitted by Proxy 2.  After the sixth
   re-transmission, Proxy 2 gives up and sends a 480 No Response to
   Alice.

   In this scenario, Bob initially sends a 180 Ringing response to
   Alice, indicating that alerting is taking place.  However, then a
   480 Unavailable is then sent to Alice.  This response is
   acknowledged then proxied back to Alice.

4.  Security Considerations

   Since this document contains examples of SIP session establishment,
   the security considerations in RFC 3261 [1] apply.  RFC 3261
   describes the basic threats including registration hijacking, server
   impersonation, message body tampering, session modifying or teardown,
   and denial of service and amplification attacks.  The use of HTTP
   Digest as shown in this document provides one-way authentication and
   protection against replay attacks.  TLS transport is used in
   registration scenarios due to the lack of integrity protection in
   HTTP Digest and the danger of registration hijacking without it, as
   described in RFC 3261 [1].  A full discussion of the weaknesses of
   HTTP Digest is provided in RFC 3261 [1].  The use of TLS and the
   Secure SIP (sips) URI scheme provides a better level of security
   including two-way authentication.  S/MIME can provide end-to-end
   confidentiality and integrity protection of message bodies, as
   described in RFC 3261.
