Re: [reSIProcate] rfc 3311 update in confirmed dialogs


Thanks Scott. For correctness I believe the section in RFC4028 is 7.4. 

 

There is no use case or failed scenario, the question was just in regards to generally accepted behavior.  The main concern is vendors support for the UPDATE method to modify the sdp as opposed to re-INVITE.  With the recent change to add UPDATE as a default supported method, there is some, albeit small, concern over this. To date we have not used UPDATE.

 

RFC3311 does not show that it is updated by 4028 on ietf.org and it seems 4028 is written in the spirit of session refreshes where it is desired to eliminate superfluous information.  Although, 4028 at the end of 7.4 does mention that UPDATE or re-invites not intended as session refreshes have the same effect as session refreshes.  Maybe 4028 should be listed as updating 3311.

 

Thanks for the clarification, I’m sure we will find that UPDATE when listed as a supported method is fully functional by all UA’s we encounter.

 

Thanks,

DUM behaves the way it does due to recommendations in RFC4028 (7.1) - preferring UPDATE as opposed to re-INVITE for session timers. 

 

Do you have a use case where user interaction is required for a re-invite that would make using a re-invite a requirement for DUM SDP negotiations?

Section 5.1 of 3311 states: “Although UPDATE can be used on confirmed

   dialogs, it is RECOMMENDED that a re-INVITE be used instead.”. 

 

It looks like DUM will send an UPDATE in the connected state (InviteSession::provideOffer).  Should DUM, by default, use UPDATE in early dialogs and use re-INVITE for confirmed dialogs?

 

Thanks,
