RE: [Sip] SIPS question

[hisham.khartabil@nokia.com]

I guess UA2 should have registered with P1 using a sips-uri in the contact-header. P1 doesn't care about the contact-header sent in the 200 OK. UA2 contact-header is telling UA1 (not P1) to contact it using TLS.

My suggestion would be that UA2 rejects the call and then re-registers with P1 using a sips-uri in the contact-header. Otherwise we have a complicated scenario where P1 has to examine contact-header in response and change the route-header to sips. UA1 has to do the same and change its own contact header to sips in a re-INVITE. Too much.

Regards,
Hisham
