SIP Header Fields |
167 |
Route URIs are only valid for the duration of the registration and should be updated when the registration is refreshed.
An example is:
Service-Route: <sip:proxy23.service.provider.com;lr>
6.3.12 SIP-ETag
The SIP-ETag header field [45] is part of the SIP publication mechanism. The SIP-ETag header field is returned in a 2xx response to a PUBLISH request. It contains an entity tag uniquely identifying the state information that has been processed. This entity tag can then be used to do conditional publications on this data including refreshing, modifying, and removing, as described in Section 5.4.13. For example:
SIP-ETag: 34dw9qFl
6.3.13 Unsupported
The Unsupported header field is used to indicate features that are not supported by the server. The header field is used in a 420 Bad Extension response to a request containing an unsupported feature listed in a Require header field. Because multiple features may have been listed in the Require header field, the Unsupported header field indicates all the unsupported features—the rest can be assumed by the UAC to be supported. See Table 6.8 for a list of feature tags.
An example is:
Unsupported: rel100
6.3.14 Warning
The Warning header field is used in a response to provide more specific information than the response code alone can convey. The header field contains a three-digit warning code, a warning agent that indicates what server inserted the header field, and warning text enclosed in quotes used for display purposes. Warning codes in the 1xx and 2xx range are specific to HTTP [2]. The SIP standard defines 12 new warning codes in the 3xx class. The breakdown of the class is shown in Table 6.18. The complete set of defined warning codes is listed in Table 6.19. Warning is not commonly implemented.
Examples are:
Warning: 302 proxy “Incompatible transport protocol”

6.3.15 WWW-Authenticate
The WWW-Authenticate header field is used in a 401 Unauthorized authentication challenge by a UA or registrar server to a UAC. It contains the nature of the challenge so that the UAC may formulate credentials in a Proxy-Authorization header field in a subsequent request. SIP supports HTTP digest authentication mechanisms. Examples are shown in Table 6.20.
6.3.16 RSeq
The RSeq header field [28] is used in provisional (1xx class) responses to INVITEs to request reliable transport. The header field may only be used if the INVITE request contained the Supported: rel100 header field. If present in a provisional
