You are not likely to run into this for transfer.

I'm not aware of any applications that will exercise this use case today, but I expect someone eventually will come up with something (it might look like referring a UA to multiple MSRP connections or some other conference-like mesh, or somebody may eventually try to use REFER to ask the UA to look at several things over HTTP at once).

The id= parameter on the Event header in the notify is there to allow you to tell the subscriptions apart (so you can manage those usages independently). The element accepting the REFERs is required to send it in the NOTIFYs of the second and subsequent subscriptions. Again, I haven't seen attempts to use this capability in applications yet - it would not surprise me if there's something there that turns out to be really hard (like figuring out which of those subscriptions goes with which REFER).

Hi

I have seen some discussion happened on this topic in the following mail trail, but still not clear with one thing:
https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/pipermail/sip-implementors/2003-December/005829.html


Is there any use case where we receive second REFER message that creates a subscription while there exists an already an 'active' REFER subscription in the same dialog? RFC 3515 has given a use case by saying that "If more than one REFER is issued in the same dialog (a second attempt at transferring a call for example)". But in the above scenario, I assume that the first attempt to call transfer has failed (i.e. first REFER subscription terminated).

Please clarify me.

Srikanth
