Re: [Sip] Question on rfc3263 - locating sip servers



The basic requirement for ACK for 2xx of INVOTE is to make sure the UAS that 2xx been received by UAC.
 
Also ACK may not pass through the same route which the INVITE passed through to UAS.
 
UAC while sending the ACK request will use the route header in the 2xx(INVITE) response and the Req-URI will be set with teh contact address in teh 2xx response.

Subject: [Sip] Question on rfc3263 - locating sip servers

Hi,
I have a question regarding RFC3263.

from the RFC (4):
Because the ACK request for 2xx responses to INVITE constitutes a
different transaction, there is no requirement that it be delivered
to the same server that received the original request (indeed, if
that server did not record-route, it will not get the ACK).

Does that mean that for ACK on 2xx responses, I need to re-query the DNS
server (assuming a non IP uri)?
Do I need to query the DNS even if the URI of the ACK is the same as the URI
of the initial INVITE request?
 
[Nataraju A.B.]
U may need to query the DNS server if u have not cached the domain name and FQDN mapping.
 
[Nataraju A.B.]
In the first place There is no point in sending ACK to some one else also.

thanks,
Udi J. Tirosh.
