Hi,

Since the connection is established end-to-end then without RELOAD, how can
you rely on - as the receiver of i.e. INVITE - that the identity of the the
.. let's say "message elements" such as "From"-Header ... is really the
person providing this information ?

What I mean is: Then, is there any need of an SIP-header extension providing
the signature of the sending party ?

Cheers,
   Frederic

RELOAD provides a rendezvous mechanism to use ICE to set up a direct
connection between Alice and Bob.  But after the initial setup, RELOAD
is out of the picture and the actual SIP traffic flows directly
between the two SIP UAs without any RELOAD involvement.
