Hi,
I'd like to clarify something about the "580 - Precondition Failure"
response. As per RFC3312 (section 8, on refusing an offer):

"When a UAS, acting as an answerer, cannot or is not willing to meet
   the preconditions in the offer, it SHOULD reject the offer by
   returning a 580 (Precondition-Failure) response."

In the case of an updated offer that is sent in an UPDATE request, after
the initial offer sent in an INVITE request, my questions are:

1) Is the 580 response a response to the UPDATE request or to the previous
INVITE request?

2) If the 580 response is a response to the UPDATE, what happens to the
pending INVITE transaction? Does the offerer send a CANCEL or BYE
request to end the INVITE transaction after he receives the 580
response?

I'm sorry if these are basic questions, but I couldn't find any examples
on preconditions failure.

Thanks a lot,
 Ana
