[SIPForum-discussion] Remote Party ID and p-asserted-identity.

[Badri Ranganathan]

Hi all,

Is the Remote-party-ID in use still? I have read from the link below that this header should not be used and that there are still some trunk providers who are using this. Is the P-Asserted-Identity an alternative for Remote-Party-ID ? or is there any other alternative. I want to know if the same trunk providers will support alternative options for this outdated header?

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/P-Asserted-Identity+and+Remote-Party-ID+header

If anyone has worked with SIP trunking providers and know anything in this regard, please help.

Thanks,
Badri.

Hi Pankaj,

Diversion Header and Remote Party id are different headers.


Remote Party id:  Identifies a party and is added by the trusted network entities.

   Different types of party information can be provided, e.g., calling,

   or called party, and for each type of party, different types of

   identity information, e.g. subscriber, or terminal, can be provided.

   Since a party may not wish to reveal some or all of this information

   to an untrusted entity, the party can request a specific level of

   privacy for each. The intermediary also has the ability to specify a

   required level of privacy.





Diversion header : The Diversion header allows implementation of feature logic
based on from whom the call was diverted.


Role of "reason" in diversion header to convey why message is diverted e.g. user-busy, no-answer etc.

It is recommended to include reason in diversion header. But it may work without "reason". Check diversion header RFC :  http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-levy-sip-diversion-08.txt.

Regards,
Vikas
