If the SIP URI comparison rules dictate that the Contact URI supplied in 
the REGISTER request matches an existing Contact URI bound to the AoR in 
the Request URI, then the new REGISTER request is an update to the 
existing binding. If the URIs don't match, then the requests are for 
separate bindings.
