Title : Requirements for Management of Overload in the Session Initiation Protocol
Author(s) : J. Rosenberg
Filename : draft-ietf-sipping-overload-reqs-00.txt
Pages : 21
Date : 2006-11-28
Overload occurs in Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) networks when
proxies and user agents have insuffient resources to complete the
processing of a request. SIP provides limited support for overload
handling through its 503 response code, which tells an upstream
element that it is overloaded. However, numerous problems have been
identified with this mechanism. This draft summarizes the problems
with the existing 503 mechanism, and provides some requirements for a
solution.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sipping-overload-reqs-00.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
