Hi Nils A originator typically the UAC can send CANCEL if it does not want to accept the call. So the Reason header with block option can be sent while rejecting the call. While the Reason header with block option can be sent in BYE while terminating the call - i. e blocking after talking.

I assume you mean that a B2BUA could cancel the outgoing call leg. But a) where does the B2BUA gets suddenly the information from (if it has the blocking information already it would reject the incoming call leg, so there is nothing to cancel) and b) how is this different from a forking proxy (which obviously needs to cancel the remaining forked call legs if the user has rejected the call at one of the legs)? So I have to fealing that I'm still missing here something. A CANCEL goes from originator to the receiver of a request. But you want to send the blocking information in the other direction. Or do you assume that an entity which processes the blocking information could sit at the terminating side of a call leg? I fear that I would need an example or call flow to get the use case for a CANCEL.
