Hi, Yes, it (security) does mean a lot to a lot of different people. Thanks for all the responses. I am reading the different suggested RFC & drafts. My question was more on how can one UA inform another UA that it wants to make changes to their session/dialog. In my case the security will be different, but I want to have one UA initiate the secure call (change to session/dialog), and the other UA to confirm. As stated I can use the X- header since both clients will be custom. Is there any other defined way that 2 UA should have this conversation, is it only defined in the RFC3264? (An offer/answer model with the session description protocol)

This term means many different things to even more different people. You might look at: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sip-sips-08.txt which has completed working group last call and I'm about to send to the IESG, and at: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sip-media-security-requir ements-04.txt and http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sip-dtls-srtp-framework-0 1.txt which, if I recall aright, are currently in working group last call. -- Dean _______________________________________________ Sip mailing list https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/sip This list is for NEW development of the core SIP Protocol Use [EMAIL PROTECTED] for questions on current sip Use [EMAIL PROTECTED] for new developments on the application of sip
