Goutam,

Normally the Step-II shall not happen. It could happen, if Bob's phone doesn't 
want to have one way media or RTCP packets - in this case it can make the media 
totally inactive.
May be to save some bandwidth :) but there will be SBC's midway of the call 
which can detect the idle media and tear down the call. So, in my opinion 
Step-II is not a good idea!

Coming to the second question, if Alice is off-hold, then he has to reply with 
sendrecv. Are you really getting sendonly when you go off-hold? If this is 
true, the answer from Bob would be inactive.
(It could be recvonly as well)

Regards,
Somesh

Subject: [Sip-implementors] Call HOLD from both sides

Hi,

I'm trying to implement a VOIP call between two endpoints. I'm in a doubt.

Say Alice and Bob are in a call. Now,

STEP I
Alice puts Bob on hold.  i.e.

          INVITE (RTP-sendonly)
Alice -------------------------------------> Bob

          200 OK (RTP-recvonly)
        <------------------------------------

                     ACK
         ------------------------------------->


STEP II
After this Bob puts Alice on hold. i.e.

              INVITE(RTP-inactive)
Alice   <--------------------------------------   Bob

               200 OK (RTP-inactive)
          ---------------------------------------->

                         ACK
          <----------------------------------------

( If Alice has already put the call on hold, then is Step II possible?? )

After this sequence of signaling, say Alice takes the call off hold i.e.

                INVITTE(RTP-sendonly)
Alice   ------------------------------------------->  Bob

                 200 OK (RTP ?????)
          <--------------------------------------------

My Question is:What should bob send as a reply now?
