UAs send periodic re-INVITE or UPDATE requests To resolve this problem, this extension defines a keepalive mechanismįor SIP sessions. Has no method to determine when the call state information no longer

Situation, the call stateful proxy will retain state for the call and Stateful proxy will not know when the session has ended. When the BYE message gets lost due to network problems, a call User agent fails to send a BYE message at the end of a session, or Result is that call stateful proxies will not always be able toĭetermine whether a session is still active. Session specific mechanisms, proxies will not be able to do so. May be able to determine whether the session has timed out by using Mechanism for the sessions it establishes.
