This document describes an end-to-end session identifier for use in
IP-based multimedia communication systems that enables endpoints,
intermediary devices, and management systems to identify a session
end-to-end, associate multiple endpoints with a given multipoint
conference, track communication sessions when they are redirected,
and associate one or more media flows with a given communication
session. While the identifier is intended to work across multiple
protocols, this document describes its usage in the Session
Initiation Protocol (SIP).
This document also describes a backwards-compatibility mechanism for
an existing session identifier implementation (RFC 7329) that is
sufficiently different from the procedures defined in this document.
This document obsoletes RFC 7329.
This document is a product of the INtermediary-safe SIP session ID Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
