RE: [Sipping] Last Call: draft-ietf-sipping-service-examples (Ses sion Initiation Protocol Service Examples) to BCP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Whilst the document contains some useful examples of how services might be
implemented it does not I believe represent the BCP for some services and
publishing this as BCP may not help interoperability.

For example the document describes the service "Call Hold" and indicates
that "a=sendonly" should be used but also states that "a UA that places the
other party on hold will generally also stop sending media, resulting in no
media exchange between the Uas".

The use of "a=sendonly" in the case where no media is to be sent is clearly
not best practice as in this case "a=inactive" should be used. 

The draft-ietf-sipping-sip-offeranswer contains a much better description of
how media should be held and resumed.

Regards
Andy



However,   Older UAs may set the
   connection address to 0.0.0.0 when initiating hold.  However, this
   behavior has been deprecated in favor of using the a=sendonly SDP
   attribute.
