SIP: Understanding the Session Initiation Protocol |
5.5 Server Error
This class of responses is used to indicate that the request cannot be processed because of an error with the server. The response may contain a Retry-After header field if the server anticipates being available within a specific time period. The request can be tried at other locations because there are no errors indicated in the request.
5.5.1500 Server Internal Error
This server error class response indicates that the server has experienced some kind of error that is preventing it from processing the request. The reason phrase can be used to identify the type of failure. The client can retry the request again at this server after several seconds.
5.5.2501 Not Implemented
This response indicates that the server is unable to process the request because it is not supported. This response can be used to decline a request containing an unknown method. A proxy, however, will forward a request containing an unknown request method. Thus, a proxy will forward an unknown SELFDESTRUCT request, assuming that the UAS will generate this response if the method is not known.
5.5.3502 Bad Gateway
This response is sent by a proxy that is acting as a gateway to another network, and indicates that some problem in the other network is preventing the request from being processed.
5.5.4503 Service Unavailable
This response indicates that the requested service is temporarily unavailable. The request can be retried after a few seconds, or after the expiration of the Retry-After header field. Instead of generating this response, a loaded server may refuse the connection. This response code is important in that its receipt triggers a new DNS lookup to locate a backup server to obtain the desired service. The set of SIP DNS procedures for locating SIP servers is detailed in [16].
5.5.5504 Gateway Timeout
This response indicates that the request failed due to a timeout encountered in the other network to which that the gateway connects. It is a server error class
