[SIPForum-discussion] Need help about RFC 3262

[jk]

"Reliable response" means a response which include Require header with 100rel. 
UAS can put "Require: 100rel" to provisional responses in order to ask UAC
to send PRACK for the provisional response.

Session description is independent of whether a response is reliable or not.
Reliable responses may or may not include SDP.

Hope this help.
