The offloader would need to pass the identity to the server. If it acted as a simple SIP proxy in addition to doing TLS offload, it would work fine. There are other non-standard ways of passing this identity also.


Let's just say that we're aware of commercial TLS concentrators from a certain vendor (who might ostensibly be said to fund your participation in this forum) that are both very popular and that DO NOT HAVE this functionalility and aren't very likely to get it (after all, why would you wish to reduce their performance by a factor of 50 or so to start parsing SIP messages?). Finding a way other than basic or digest to authenticate across them would be very nice, and would be very likely to ramp up the deployment of SIP/TLS.
