A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 5839 Title: An Extension to Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Events for Conditional Event Notification Author: A. Niemi, D. Willis, Ed. Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: May 2010 Mailbox: aki.niemi@nokia.com, dean.willis@softarmor.com Pages: 25 Characters: 52999 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-sipcore-subnot-etags-04.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5839.txt The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) events framework enables receiving asynchronous notification of various events from other SIP user agents. This framework defines the procedures for creating, refreshing, and terminating subscriptions, as well as fetching and periodic polling of resource state. These procedures provide no tools to avoid replaying event notifications that have already been received by a user agent. This memo defines an extension to SIP events that allows the subscriber to condition the subscription request to whether the state has changed since the previous notification was received. When such a condition is true, either the body of a resulting event notification or the entire notification message is suppressed. [STANDARDS TRACK] This document is a product of the Session Initiation Protocol Core Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Internet Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
