Not at all - they are doing two different things albeit with some
overlap. ICE candidate attributes indicate a possible IP-address to use
(as well as whether you use UDP or TCP) - this part overlaps with
capability negotiation. They also indicate certain properties of those
addresses as well as a desire/request to run a connectivity check
algorithm using STUN and based on the outcome of that check, then
deciding whether to use it or not - this part is clearly above and
beyond capability negotiation. In a perfect world, we'd eliminate that
overlap, but I'm not arguing for that. Also note, that you can in fact
include candidate attributes as capabilities and use them as part of the
capability negotiation framework if you want to - in order for that to
work, you'll of course have to ensure that the other supports both
capability negotiation and ICE. In any case, we seem to be departing
from the original issue at hand here.

Yes, perhaps that could be a compromise.
Anybody can think of reasons why it wouldn't work?

I would like to get a feel for the status of IPv6 and/or dual-stack
transitions/implementations in the SIP world. Are there any examples
and interoperability results? Also, any known issues being worked?
Thanks,

Hi Jonathan,
I know there's a humm coming up on this - can you email out what an SDP
offer would look like using ICE, offering v4+v6 candidates, instead of
ANAT?
I looked through the draft and I don't see one, and the wording in
section 13's not helping.
I am curious how the resultant SDP would look reaching an endpoint not
supporting ICE.
Thanks!

isn't it just the opposite (assuming you meant v4-to-v6 above)?
Let's take the SIP client developer point of view. If you use ANAT by
default, you are betting on IPv6 to always work (for e.g. media
sessions) if an address is available. Now it's easy to see that this
will not _always_ hold, and especially at the beginning of transition
(as people have less experience in deploying and operating IPv6 than
IPv4 -- there will be temporary glitches, configuration errors, and also
more permanent issues familiar from IPv4 networks like firewalls
blocking all UDP except DNS, etc, etc).
Now how likely the above scenarios are, I don't know, but I've seen
these happen many times, and have heard similar stories from others. Now
as a SIP client developer, you want to be on the safe side and maybe
leave ANAT disabled in the default configuration (a reasonable
compromise). And this means that the client won't take advantage of IPv6
even if it is there and works, unless it is specifically configured to
do so.
With ICE, the client developer can safely enable IPv6 support by
default, without risking bad user experience and hard to debug problems
(for example firewall blocking RTP on IPv6 network, but not on IPv4). If
you can get rid of these corner cases on IPv4 networks (with ICE),
surely you don't want them back when moving to IPv6? And if you can't,
why would you then use IPv6?
So basicly both sides win -- developer can enable IPv6 support
immediately and as a default client setting, while operators can
incrementally enable IPv6 in their networks and have clients utilizing
IPv6 without any changes to client configuration.
It's also good to note that the problem looks very different from a
client developer (who needs to work with all kinds of access networks
and SIP services), and a "system developer" (who knows what assumptions
on access network and the services can be made).
I'm making these comments with my independent SIP client developer hat
on. I don't have a strong opinion on what the sipping transition
documents should say about ANAT. If your access network is configured
correctly, I see no problem using ANAT, but I also don't see (m)any
benefits to using ANAT if you do have ICE implemented, and I can't see
myself relying on ANAT if I don't have detailed information about the
access network. So I really only care about not having any MUSTs in the
documents that would prevent me from using ICE-no-ANAT-with-IPv4/6 in my
client.
Oh well, but to the original question: no, ICE does not make transition
to IPv6 any less attractive, on the contrary, it makes it easier.

...which, of course, is also the argument for capability negotiation,
compared to best effort SRTP.

Any proposal to deprecate ANAT -- whether part of ICE, or a separate
document -- would, I think, have to include such an explanation.
