If mutiple dialogs are enabled for INVITE, and the UASs at two contact
addresses answer the incoming call simultaneously with different SDP
answer, the UAC will create two dialogs with each media sent/received
to/from a different IP peer. The media discription of dialogs caused by
forking are independent.

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
