Overview The call flows shown in this document were developed in the design of a SIP IP communications network. They represent an example minimum set of functionality. It is the hope of the authors that this document will be useful for SIP implementers, designers, and protocol researchers alike and will help further the goal of a standard implementation of RFC 3261 [1]. These flows represent carefully checked and working group reviewed scenarios of the most basic examples as a companion to the specifications. Johnston, et al. Best Current Practice [Page 2] RFC 3665 SIP Basic Call Flow Examples December 2003 These call flows are based on the current version 2.0 of SIP in RFC 3261 [1] with SDP usage described in RFC 3264 [2]. Other RFCs also comprise the SIP standard but are not used in this set of basic call flows. Call flow examples of SIP interworking with the PSTN through gateways are contained in a companion document, RFC 3666 [5]. The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, RFC 2119 [4]. 1.1. General Assumptions A number of architecture, network, and protocol assumptions underlie the call flows in this document. Note that these assumptions are not requirements. They are outlined in this section so that they may be taken into consideration and to aid in the understanding of the call flow examples. The authentication of SIP User Agents in these example call flows is performed using HTTP Digest as defined in [1] and [3]. Some Proxy Servers in these call flows insert Record-Route headers into requests to ensure that they are in the signaling path for future message exchanges. These flows show TCP, TLS, and UDP for transport. See the discussion in RFC 3261 for details on the transport issues for SIP. 1.2. Legend for Message Flows Dashed lines (---) represent signaling messages that are mandatory to the call scenario. These messages can be SIP or PSTN signaling. The arrow indicates the direction of message flow. Double dashed lines (===) represent media paths between network elements. Messages with parentheses around their name represent optional messages. Messages are identified in the Figures as F1, F2, etc. This references the message details in the list that follows the Figure. Comments in the message details are shown in the following form: /* Comments. */ Johnston, et al. Best Current Practice [Page 3] RFC 3665 SIP Basic Call Flow Examples December 2003 1.3. SIP Protocol Assumptions This document does not prescribe the flows precisely as they are shown, but rather the flows illustrate the principles for best practice. They are best practices usages (orderings, syntax, selection of features for the purpose, handling of error) of SIP methods, headers and parameters. IMPORTANT: The exact flows here must not be copied as is by an implementer due to specific incorrect characteristics that were introduced into the document for convenience and are listed below. To sum up, the basic flows represent well-reviewed examples of SIP usage, which are best common practice according to IETF consensus. For simplicity in reading and editing the document, there are a number of differences between some of the examples and actual SIP messages. For example, the HTTP Digest responses are not actual MD5 encodings. Call-IDs are often repeated, and CSeq counts often begin at 1. Header fields are usually shown in the same order. Usually only the minimum required header field set is shown, others that would normally be present such as Accept, Supported, Allow, etc are not shown.

SIP Registration Registration binds a particular device Contact URI with a SIP user Address of Record (AOR). Johnston, et al. Best Current Practice [Page 4] RFC 3665 SIP Basic Call Flow Examples December 2003 2.1. Successful New Registration Bob SIP Server | | | REGISTER F1 | |------------------------------>| | 401 Unauthorized F2 | |<------------------------------| | REGISTER F3 | |------------------------------>| | 200 OK F4 | |<------------------------------| | | Bob sends a SIP REGISTER request to the SIP server. The request includes the user's contact list. This flow shows the use of HTTP Digest for authentication using TLS transport. TLS transport is used due to the lack of integrity protection in HTTP Digest and the danger of registration hijacking without it, as described in RFC 3261 [1]. The SIP server provides a challenge to Bob. Bob enters her/his valid user ID and password. Bob's SIP client encrypts the user information according to the challenge issued by the SIP server and sends the response to the SIP server. The SIP server validates the user's credentials. It registers the user in its contact database and returns a response (200 OK) to Bob's SIP client. The response includes the user's current contact list in Contact headers. The format of the authentication shown is HTTP digest. It is assumed that Bob has not previously registered with this Server.

SIP Session Establishment This section details session establishment between two SIP User Agents (UAs): Alice and Bob. Alice (sip:alice@atlanta.example.com) and Bob (sip:bob@biloxi.example.com) are assumed to be SIP phones or SIP-enabled devices. The successful calls show the initial signaling, the exchange of media information in the form of SDP payloads, the establishment of the media session, then finally the termination of the call. HTTP Digest authentication is used by Proxy Servers to authenticate the caller Alice. It is assumed that Bob has registered with Proxy Server Proxy 2 as per Section 2 to be able to receive the calls via the Proxy. 3.1.

The initial INVITE (F1) contains a pre-loaded Route header with the address of Proxy 1 (Proxy 1 is configured as a default outbound proxy for Alice). The request does not contain the Authorization credentials Proxy 1 requires, so a 407 Proxy Authorization response is sent containing the challenge information. A new INVITE (F4) is then sent containing the correct credentials and the call proceeds. The call terminates when Bob disconnects by initiating a BYE message. Johnston, et al.

Alice has valid credentials in both domains. Since the initial INVITE (F1) does not contain the Authorization credentials Proxy 1 requires, so a 407 Proxy Authorization response is sent containing the challenge information. A new INVITE (F4) is Johnston, et al. Best Current Practice [Page 26] RFC 3665 SIP Basic Call Flow Examples December 2003 then sent containing the correct credentials and the call proceeds after Proxy 2 challenges and receives valid credentials. The call terminates when Bob disconnects by initiating a BYE message. Proxy 1 inserts a Record-Route header into the INVITE message to ensure that it is present in all subsequent message exchanges.

The routing through the ALG is accomplished using a pre-loaded Route header in the INVITE F1. Note that the media stream setup is not end-to-end - the ALG terminates both media streams and bridges them. This is done by the ALG modifying the SDP in the INVITE (F1) and 200 OK (F10) messages, and possibly any 18x or ACK messages containing SDP. In addition to firewall traversal, this Back-to-Back User Agent (B2BUA) could be used as part of an anonymizer service (in which all identifying information on Alice would be removed), or to perform codec media conversion, such as mu-law to A-law conversion of PCM on an international call. Also note that Proxy 2 does not Record-Route in this call flow. Johnston, et al.

Best Current Practice [Page 90] RFC 3665 SIP Basic Call Flow Examples December 2003 4. Security Considerations Since this document contains examples of SIP session establishment, the security considerations in RFC 3261 [1] apply. RFC 3261 describes the basic threats including registration hijacking, server impersonation, message body tampering, session modifying or teardown, and denial of service and amplification attacks. The use of HTTP Digest as shown in this document provides one-way authentication and protection against replay attacks. TLS transport is used in registration scenarios due to the lack of integrity protection in HTTP Digest and the danger of registration hijacking without it, as described in RFC 3261 [1]. A full discussion of the weaknesses of HTTP Digest is provided in RFC 3261 [1]. The use of TLS and the Secure SIP (sips) URI scheme provides a better level of security including two-way authentication. S/MIME can provide end-to-end confidentiality and integrity protection of message bodies, as described in RFC 3261. 5. References 5.1.
