Yes because it's telling one of the parties that the other party is
someone else.
 
Say you have this...

SIP UA
Alice------------->Proxy--------------->SIP gateway------------>some
network------>Bob
 
The call gets established.  Alice talks to Bob.
Then Bob transfers the call to Carol.
 
You would then expect something like an UPDATE or re-INVITE with a new
P-Preferred-Identity going from SIP gateway to proxy.
 
 
Incidentally, RFC 4916 (which is maybe a better solution) also tries to
solve the same problem.
The scenario I have described above is the same kind of problem as
described
in RFC 4916's introduction:
   o  the identity of a user that replaces the caller or callee
      following a call rearrangement such as call transfer carried out
      within the PSTN or within a back-to-back user agent (B2BUA) using
      third party call control techniques.

But once a dialog is established between two parties, does a change in
its PAID header has any significant for the other party?

        say you have a SIP gateway to some non-SIP network.
        If a transfer occurs inside the network then the SIP
        endpoint could become connected to a different user.
        
        The SIP UA will update the P-Preferred-Identity
        
        from RFC 3325:
        9.2 The P-Preferred-Identity Header
        
           The P-Preferred-Identity header field is used from a user
agent to a
           trusted proxy to carry the identity the user sending the SIP
message
           wishes to be used for the P-Asserted-Header field value that
the
           trusted element will insert.
        
        LATER IN THE SAME SECTION...
           It is worth noting that proxies can (and
           will) remove this header field.
        
        
        Then I think the proxy will remove P-Preferred-Identity and
        replace it with a P-Asserted-Identity to propagate the new
identity.
        
        
        From RFC 3325:
        9.1 The P-Asserted-Identity Header
        
           The P-Asserted-Identity header field is used among trusted
SIP
           entities (typically intermediaries) to carry the identity of
the user
           sending a SIP message as it was verified by authentication.
        
        LATER IN THE SAME SECTION...
           It is worth noting that proxies can (and
           will) add and remove this header field.
        
        
        regards

        Hi All,
        
        I need to know is there any significance of a modified PAID
header in
        Re-INVITE.
        
        With Regards,
        Jyoti
