In RFC3325 I can find the following "definition" about P-Asserted-Header
(page 5):
"A proxy server which handles a message can, after authenticating the
originating user in some way ..."
 
Ok, so the proxy authenticates a user and put that user in the
P-Asserted-Identity. In the example below, what would you say should be in
p-asserted--identity?
 
- A, B and C are subscribers in a trusted domain
- A calls B, a proxy in between authenticates A and adds the Passerted
header.
- The proxy routes the call to a application server to trigger B's
terminating services (AS is in trusted domain and will get A in passerted)
- The AS is a B2BUA and will forward the call from B to C and send the
invite to the proxy (that is terminate the call A to B and set up a new call
B to C)
- In this message, should it be A (the original caller) or B (the one that
should be "billed" for the call B to C) in the PAssertedIdentity header? Is
it dependent on local policies?
 
Thanks in advance,
