Hi all
I have a doubt regarding a refreshing registration.
Assume that a User-Agent A has registered using the following REGISTER
message with a proxy+registrar.

REGISTER sip:proxy.com SIP/2.0
Via:SIP/2.0/UDP ua1:5060
From:<sip:3251@ua1;User=phone>;tag=278100000000000000000715
To:<sip:3251@ua1;User=phone>
Contact:<sip:3251@ua1;User=phone>
Call-ID:01B2270D4881400000000000@ua1
CSeq:1 REGISTER
Expires:180
Content-Length:0

A goes down and comes up again. It attempts to register and sends a
registration with the SAME call-id and Cseq as before but with a DIFFERENT
tag in the From header . How should the proxy treat the REGISTER and why ? 
Should it :
(a)Consider the REGISTER as a  retransmission from A or 
(b)Should it keep track of the 'Tag' and so treat the request as a new
REGISTER ?

In essence what is the role of the 'Tag' field in such a scenario, if any ?

Thanks
Prakash GS
