Hi all,

I was wondering if there is any mechanism in SIP to set up a multimedia
session where each media is sent/received from/to a different IP peer
(identifying the same SIP user).
Let's imagine that A wants to establish a multimedia session with B
providing different media (audio and a slide-show for example). B is
registered in 2 different locations (B1 & B2) where B1 only supports
audio and B2 only has the slide-show capability. In this case there will
never be a full 2-media session between A and B, although B's locations
could handle both streams together.

As far as I understand, SDP does support different IP addresses through
a combination of c=/m= lines. That could be fine for a kind of
SIP-enabled media controller that wants to get a media locally and
another one on the device it controls, but I don't see any way of doing
that between independent SIP devices. Do I miss something?

I see some solutions mainly using a B2BUA, but they are all much more
complex and inadequate...Isn't there any lighter alternative? 


Thanks for your comments/suggestions.

Regards,
Laurent Walter
