[SIPForum-discussion] very imp question about route& recordroute

Tue Apr 24 04:39:34 UTC 2007

My understanding is, either a domain name or an IP address & port of P1
needs to be configured in A's Client, if a user(A) wants to initiate a
session. If it's a domain name then DNS is involved, to resolve into an
IP & port.

Thank u deepansu. 

If p1 is not configured in A "s client , then whether at that time A
required help of DNS to find the address of p1.????

My understanding about this is:

P1 is the proxy server in A's domain, so the address of P1 should be
configured in the A's client.

when P1 receive the request it will do the DNS query to find the
location of the next hop in the target domain (as per the line mentioned
by Srinivas) and then send the request to P2 which will inturn forward
the request to B

	William Refer RFC 3261 Section.10.

	If a user wants to initiate a

	session with another user, SIP must discover the current host(s)
at

	which the destination user is reachable. This discovery process
is

	frequently accomplished by SIP network elements such as proxy
servers

	and redirect servers which are responsible for receiving a
request,

	determining where to send it based on knowledge of the location
of

	the user, and then sending it there.

	can any body tell that 

	suppose the call setup is lke  A  p1    p2    B

	here A is user agent client. B is user agent  server. p1 & p2
are proxy. 
	1.let A has generated an  INVITE request to B . in which case
the invite request generated by A will conatin ROUTE header field.????
	[Srinivas]  Generally , proxy P1 gets IP address of B from
location server also if there are any proxies in between. 

	               Proxy P1 (generate INVITE) fills route and send
INVITE. 

	User A can fill route set only if it knows the proxies between
user A and user B.

	2. let p1 has rcved the INVITE request containg ROUTE heder
field.
	is it mandatory that the invite from point p1 to p2 will conatin
RECORD ROUTE heder field.????? if yes why if not why???

	[Srinivas] In some cases, it may be useful for proxies in the
SIP signaling path to see all the messages pass between the endpoints
for the session. In that case it will add RECORD ROUTE.  If it don't
want to be in the path, it will not add the RECORD ROUTE.

	plz anser
