Call Control with SIP Brian Elliott, Director of Engineering, NMS
SIP = Session Initiation Protocol • SIP version 2.0, RFC 3261, June 2002 • RFCs 2976, 3262, 3265, 3515 • Protocol for IP networks • Transported over UDP, TCP, SCTP, etc. • Session (call) control — not a media transport • (use RTP), but has a text messaging capability • Text-based protocol • SIP transports SDP — Session Description Protocol • Describes media session — RFCs 2327, 3264 • Text based protocol
SIP Network Infrastructure DNS Server Presence/Redirection/ Registration Servers DNS SIP SIP (before connected) Inbound Proxy Server Outbound Proxy Server SIP SIP SIP (after connected) Media (RTP) User Agent B User Agent A
SIP Infrastructure Components • User Agent • Consists of User Agent Client (to make requests) and User Agent Server (to handle requests) • SIP phone, PDA, PSTN gateway, media server • Proxy servers • Aggregate and route — resolve addresses with DNS • Location servers • Updated by User Agent registration; queried by proxies in routing
SIP Messages • Message types • Requests • Responses • Every request has one or more responses • Transaction = request + responses • Dialog (or “call leg”) analogous to PSTN call
Messages — Requests • INVITE — initiate a session • ACK — acknowledge a session • PRACK — provisional acknowledge • CANCEL — cancel INVITE request • BYE — terminate a session • REGISTER — register user • OPTIONS — query capabilities • SUBSCRIBE — subscribe to a service • NOTIFY — service notification • INFO — miscellaneous info • REFER — refer one user to another (transfer)
1xx — provisional 100 — Trying 200 — Ringing 300 — Session Progress 2xx — success 200 — OK 3xx — redirection 300 — moved permanently 301 — moved temporarily 4xx — client error 400 — Bad Request 401 — Unauthorized 403 — Forbidden 404 — Not Found 481 — Call Does not Exist 486 — Busy Here 5xx — server error 6xx — global failure Messages — Responses

SIP for NCC 1.0 • To allow implementation of SIP User Agent using Natural Access framework • Familiar Natural Access development environment • Familiar Natural Call Control (NCC) API and model
Benefits of SIP for NCC • Reduced time-to-market with SIP-based products • SIP integrated into Natural Access • NCC API well known • NCC API abstracts many low-level details of SIP, simplifying development • Easy conversion of PSTN applications using Natural Call Control • Pay for SIP stack as you deploy • No large up-front license fee

Basic Call Control Features • Placing outbound call; receiving incoming call • INVITE, ACK, CANCEL, BYE • 1xx, 2xx • PRACK (Provisional Reliable Acknowledgement) • Rejecting call with different causes • 3xx, 4xx, 5xx, 6xx • Transferring call • REFER • Macros provided for building up fields for SIP and SDP
Special Features • Finding users and services • REGISTER (nccRegisterUser) • SIP event notification • SUBSCRIBE, UNSUBSCRIBE, NOTIFY • Advanced Configuration • Transport options — UDP or TCP • Outbound proxy — specify SIP proxy for sending all messages • Persistent TCP connection reused instead of setting up and tearing down for each session • Configure Ethernet port to be used for all SIP in/out, or designate Ethernet connection per session • For future release… • OPTIONS, INFO, COMET, UPDATE
Flows — Optional Call Acknowledge • nccAcknowledgeCall (callhd, Ies) • NCCEVN_ANSWERED_CALL • Manual or automatic — server option
