[SIPForum-discussion] should UA accept SIP INVITE destined to a different domain than was initially registered to

[Hemant Kumar]

Hi,

Ideally it should accept it.

Think of a scenario in which call is being redirected by a proxy as the
called party(callee at a.com) is not available.
There is a possibility that the  call is redirected to a user(
redirected at b.com) belonging to a different domain than the called party. In
this case the TO header will not be modified but Request URI will be
modified to redirected at b.com.

Regards,
Hemant
