Hi,
RFC3261: "...MUST ignore any session
descriptions in subsequent responses..."
I
think that the common industry understanding of RFC3261 is that 1 offer has 1
answer, even though that 1 answer may be transmitted several times. And the
1st transmission is used (treated as THE answer). While you are speaking
about several answers with 1 matching offer. That is a fundamental
difference.
In your chart SDP4 is a reliable answer. Therefore SDP5
might be interpreted as a new offer, hence UAC could send an answer in PRACK.
Quite similarly to 3PCC cases, where 200 contains the offer and ACK the
answer.
In my opinion it is better not to allow an answer
updating a prior answer of the same offer. If early meadia is a real issue,
implement support for 100rel and send update using UPDATE method. Or UAC
could play ring-back tone locally. That is another cheap and easy solution. I do
not see any reason for hacking.
BR,
Som

I see. But if there's memo of such consensus, it would be quite useful in interworking testing.
