Re: Initial WG review: draft-johnston-sipping-cc-uui-06

However there are implications in the draft that go beyond ISDN (as defined by ITU-T service descriptions and as represented in the ISO private network equivalents) in this case. Note that while the stage 1 and stage 2 for the ISDN public networks cover diversion using both forward switching and redirection, forward switching is the only bit implemented in the public network due to charging issues. Redirection does occur across the PBX-public network interface.
 
In ISDN if A calls B and B redirects to C, then any UUI that A sends to B is redirected to C.
 
The draft implies that B is allowed to include its own personal UUI and that this will be given to C, and I believe this is not covered in the ISDN case.
 
My understanding is that while in the ISDN the rerouteing request contains UUI, it is the original UUI from the A user that is sent back to the point of redirection as this will not have been preserved at these intermediate points.
 
Thus in section 4.3 of the draft, F2 should only contain UUI if F1 contains the UUI in the first place, and all the redirect server is doing is reflecting it back.
 
Note that I do not necessarily have concerns about extending the ISDN service, but we do need to be clear of the use cases where this occurs, and also make sure that there are no interworking implications with the ISDN service. Thus an ISDN user C receiving UUI will have expected this to have come from the A user. If B happens to be a SIP user and inserting its own UUI, what occurred to any original UUI from the A user, and how do we tell the C user that this UUI is now really from user B.

Joanne,
 
It seems I was mistaken about ISDN not supporting a redirection capability for UUI. If that is the case, then my concern goes away.

Alan and Joanne,

Looking at the redirection example, I could imagine a similar case but
using proxying (retargeting or rerouting) rather than redirection. In
this case the proxy would insert the UUI in the forwarded request. Is
see no requirement for this in section 3.

However, PSTN/ISDN does not support capabilities equivalent to insertion
by a proxying or redirecting entity.
[Joanne] PSTN/ISDN most certainly allows for transition of UUI with redirect - and that is
a very important point... see more information below...
 
Yet in section 1 it states:
"This document looks only at the
   requirements and mechanisms for replicating the existing, widely used
   and deployed ISDN UUI service."

Therefore we should either:
- remove the redirection case, on the grounds that it doesn't replicate
existing ISDN UUI operation; or
[Joanne] Redirection most certainly does replicate current ISDN behavior - there are
ISDN standards supported by PSTNs where they actually do a redirect as requested
by a PBX - ANSI Explicit Network Call Transer and ETSI Network Call Deflection
are  two popular specs supported and used with PSTNs - both of them allow for
transmitting the UU IE as part of that PSTN redirect service for private networks. Hence, the SP redirect case
here is certainly 100% valid in SIP. If we do something to disallow it in SIP (or just ignore it) then we are going
to cause interop problems and certainly not have parity with ISDN for full UUI transmission support
for redirects... and the industry needs that...
- clarify the statement in section 1 so as not to preclude the
redirection case.

Furthermore, if we adopt the second of these approaches we might wish to
consider adding a requirement for insertion by a proxy. Fortunately the
chosen mechanism would seem to permit this.

I have no strong feelings which approach we should take. I just wish to
see consistency.

John
