Initiation Protocol (SIP)
A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries.
RFC 3824
Title: Using E.164 numbers with the Session Initiation
Protocol (SIP)
Author(s): J. Peterson, H. Liu, J. Yu, B. Campbell
Status: Informational
Date: June 2004
There are a number of contexts in which telephone numbers are
employed by Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) applications, many of
which can be addressed by ENUM. Although SIP was one of the primary
applications for which ENUM was created, there is nevertheless a need
to define procedures for integrating ENUM with SIP
implementations. This document illustrates how the two protocols
might work in concert, and clarifies the authoring and processing of
ENUM records for SIP applications. It also provides guidelines for
instances in which ENUM, for whatever reason, cannot be used to
resolve a telephone number.
This document is a product of the Session Initiation Proposal
Investigation Working Group of the IETF.
