Hi Nataraju,

This is the current usage of offer/answer model in SIP communication.

In theory, any SIP message can include session description in its
body. But not all the session description in a SIP message is an
offer or an answer. Only the session description that conforms to the
rules described in the standard track RFCs can be interpreted as an
offer or an answer. The rules how to handle offer/answer model are
currently defined in several RFCs. Unless defined in an RFC
explicitly as an offer or an answer, except ones in non-reliable
provisional response to INVITE request, a session description should
not be included in SIP messages to avoid confusions.

Hi Ramya,


>>If 180 was reliable the, 200ok NEED NOT have the answer
>>If 180 was not reliable, then 200ok MUST have the same answer

If 180 was reliable, then 200ok SHOULD NOT have the answer.

>From draft.

SDP should not be included in the final response once offer/answer has been
completed
http://tools.ietf.org/wg/sip/draft-sawada-sipping-sip-offeranswer-00.txt


[ABN] many of the implementations may nto support this draft
implementation. again this is still in draft stage..


So you can't mandate for not to send the SDP in 200 OK in case SDP answer
was sent in the reliable 1xx. You should still accept the 2xx with same SDP
which was there in earlier reliable 1xx.

[ASR] I think that it still has to send SDP in 200 OK even if the answer
has been sent by a provisional response. Can some 3rd person confirm?


<RAMYA>
Extract from RFC 3261

       If the initial offer is in an INVITE, the answer MUST be in a

      Reliable non-failure message from UAS back to UAC which is

       correlated to that INVITE.



Extract from RFC 3262

   A UAS MAY send any non-100 provisional response to INVITE reliably,

   so long as the initial INVITE request (the request whose provisional

   response is being sent reliably) contained a Supported header field

   with the option tag 100rel.

>From the above extracts We can say that

If 180 was reliable the, 200ok NEED NOT have the answer

If 180 was not reliable, then 200ok MUST have the same answer

2. Though an ACK is sent back to all, which one should be considered
finally
?
-> their will be only one ACK response from UAC that will the server
transaction to transition itself from completed to confirmed state, rest
of all ACK's will be absorbed by UAS having no effect of server
transaction state.

[ASR] I think the above explanation might be incorrect. Section 13.1 in
3261 states that -

"A 2xx response to an INVITE establishes a session, and it also
   creates a dialog between the UA that issued the INVITE and the UA
   that generated the 2xx response.  Therefore, when multiple 2xx
   responses are received from different remote UAs (because the INVITE
   forked), each 2xx establishes a different dialog.  All these dialogs
   are part of the same call."

-> [ajit] I am here not talking about forked response I am talking about
the retransmission of ACK from a particular UAC to a particular UAS.
What you have said is true in case of forked request and the ACK
generated by UAC will also be meant for different UAS.

This explanation should also answer the original question.


3.Can all of them contain SDPs (pbly answer SDPs)?
-> each of the 200Ok response can or need not have the SDP, if one
retransmission has SDP answer than all will have. Remember answer can
also be sent in 1xx provisional response like 180 ringing.

[ASR] I think that it still has to send SDP in 200 OK even if the answer
has been sent by a provisional response. Can some 3rd person confirm?

[ajit] ya 200ok must carry the SDP even if 180 carries  SDP. I was not
clear though. Sorry.

Priya.
