There are two options:
Option-1
Bill should start at point 4 once the Party B pickup the receiver and it should stop at Point 7 @200OK
Bye is a request came from Party B.

Option-2
If the SDP parameters does not passthrough in INVITE msg then the SDP will be negotiated at ACK(point-5) .. in that case billing should start from Point-5 and stop at point - 7

Thanks,

please consider this sip call flow:



A                                        B
01        INVITE
     ----------------------------------->
02       100 TRYING
    <------------------------------------
03       180 Ringing
    <------------------------------------
04       200OK With SDP
   <----------------------------------------
05       ACK
   ------------------------------------------>
06             BYE
   <------------------------------------------
07           200 OK
   ------------------------------------------->


Query:
1. Is there any rfc recommendation when to start bill and stop it, some says its start after 4 and stop at 06 some says its start after 5 and stop at 7?

2. is it ok if someone start bill after 05 and stop after 06?
