Hi all,
 
I was exploring the possibility for the UPDATE to send the Answer,
As I haven't found any explicit restriction in RFC 3311.
 
I went through the older Thread
http://lists.cs.columbia.edu/pipermail/sip-implementors/2004-January/006017.

and came across following Qs which I found not clarified though.
 
1. Can UPDATE be used to send an answer SDP ?
    Consider the following scenario:
    -  INVITE was sent without SDP
    - 18x is received with Offer SDP
    - There is no PRACK exchange because 18x does not contain a
Require:100rel header
    Now can UPDATE be used to send answer SDP??
 
2. As per RFC 3311, UPDATE method should be used only if dialog is
established.
    If INVITE/18x exchange happened without PRACK, can both ends treat
this as early dialog and feel free to use UPDATE ?
 
3. Is 18x send/recv over TCP considered reliable ?
    In the following scenario:
    - INVITE with offer sdp sent
    - 18x over TCP with answer sdp recvd (No PRACK exchange happened)
    Now can the caller/calleee use UPDATE ?

Can any body clarify the same?
 
Thanks in advance,
Bhavik Chauhan
