Subject: Re: [Sip-implementors] 183 Session Progress with SDP







Pong,
     I was going to ask you why the long delay between the 183 and 200 !,
I guess you beat me to it.

The trace is helpful but doesn't explain the delay. The field "Resent
Packet: False" might not mean much depending on where the trace was taken
and over what transport protocol the signalling was sent. But the network
would have to have lost a lot of 200s to account for any significant amount
of the 23seconds.


It is more likely that this is processing delay in the Asterisk PBX
and / or PSTN signalling components. For the complete picture here you need
to know what PSTN signalling events occurred for the same call. The 200 OK
is not generated and sent until the PSTN ANM (answer)message - which may
have taken the full 28+seconds to be recived.


     The delay can be further explained by what PSTN CPG (call progress)
messages were recieved and also what if anything was sent on the early
audio from the PSTN. Did the end user here any announcements in this
scenario or ringing up until the call completed (receiving end to end
audio)?.

illustration (not saying this is what happened below!) - network might have
terminated on an IVR at the 5sec mark, sent back an Address Complete (ACM)
message Atserisk mapped to a 183 with SDP for early media which should be
cut-through so the annoucement is heard by the end party. The message plays
for 15seconds saying if you didn't press 1 or 2 it would put you through to
the operator, you don't so it does, and at 28second mark PSTN sends a ANM
back and call completes end to end.


     Hope the above is at least a little helpful - Wayne.

***********************************
Hi,

Thank you Indresh for your response.   I agree with you that we should not
be billing early until a connection has been established.  During this
call,
the billing did not start until we (10.1.26.125) sent 200 OK SDP.  The
thing
I would like to understand is why does it take like 23seconds between 183
Session Progress SDP and 200 OK SDP.  I would like to shorten this down to
6-10 seconds.  Your input is appreciate it!

Here's a trace of the call:

Subject: RE: [Sip-implementors] 183 Session Progress with SDP


It depends upon what is carried in the 183 SDP.

Let us say 183 Is carrying a SDP which connects A to a Media Server and
Media Server is just playing an announcement, that your call is
proceeding.
In that case you would not want to start billing that person after
receiving
media in 183.

200 OK SDP generally carries the end user's SDP providing the
confirmation
that the user has accepted the call and is initiating the conversation,
so
that is the point of time when the billing should start. This is
applicable
for the case of interworking too, but sometimes at the time of sending
183
the SDP indicates that user has accepted the call, so  I think if you
provide more detail regarding what SDP is being carried in 183 what is
actually happening at the remote end ( Say it is PRI/ISUP/H323/MGCP then
what is the level of signaling on the other side, whether at the point of
sending 183 User has picked up the phone or not ). one may provide more
appropriate suggestion.

Billing generally starts when speech path is cut through and speech path
to
the end-user is cut through normally after 3-way handshake of INVITE
200OK
ACK Txn is completed. In between if say 183 carries SDP, then it will
depend
upon what SDP it carries and whether speech path is being cut through to
the
end user or to something else. If it is being cut through to the end
user,
it makes sense to start billing immediately otherwise not.

Dear Sirs,

I am a newbie and please forgive me if this post does not below in this
list.  I have a question that I hope you might be able to clarify for me.
Gateway A sends an INVITE to Gateway B with SDP.  When B sends back 183
Session Progress with SDP, shouldn't A respond and use the information
within the 183 SDP instead of waiting for B's 200 OK SDP?  The cdr shows
the
duration of the call as 72 seconds and the billable second as 43.  That
is
almost 29 seconds before the call is picked up.  Shouldn't the 183 SDP
from
B to A help shorten this post dial delay?

Thank you very much for your time!
