Abstract
This memo provides information for the Internet community. It
describes a useful way to conceptualize the use of the standard SIP
(Session Initiation Protocol) Request-URI (Uniform Resource
Identifier) that the authors and many members of the SIP community
think is suitable as a convention. It does not define any new
protocol with respect to RFC 2543.
In a conventional telephony environment, extended service
applications often use call state information, such as calling party,
called party, reason for forward, etc, to infer application context.
In a SIP/2.0 call, much of this information may be either non-
existent or unreliable. This document proposes a mechanism to
communicate context information to an application. Under this
proposal, a client or proxy can communicate context through the use
of a distinctive Request-URI. This document continues with examples
of how this mechanism could be used in a voice mail application.

Campbell & Sparks Informational [Page 2]RFC 3087 SIP Service Control April 2001
1. Introduction
A communication service should make use of the information it has at
hand when being accessed. For example, in most current voice mail
implementations, a subscriber retrieving messages from his own desk
does not have to reenter his voice mailbox number - the service
assumes that the store being accessed is the one associated with the
endpoint being used to access the service. Some services allow the
user to validate this assumption using IVR techniques before
prompting for a PIN.
This concept of context-awareness can be captured in a voice mail
service implementing SIP as defined in RFC 2543[1], without
modification, through the standard use of that protocol's Request-
URI. Furthermore, the concept is applicable to any SIP-based service
where initial application state should be determined from context.
This concept is a usage convention of standard SIP as defined in RFC
2543[1] and does not modify or extend that protocol in any way.
2. Example Application
In this document, we use the example of voice mail to illustrate the
technique. One motivation for applying this technique to this
problem is allowing a proxy or location server to control the initial
state of a voice service. For example, a voice client might register
a contact list ending with the URL that would accept voice messages
for the client.
2.1 Using URIs to Control Voice Mail Service Behavior
Many conventional voice mail systems use call state information, such
as the calling party, called party, reason for forward, etc, to
decide the initial application state. For example, it might play one
outgoing message if the call reached voice mail because the called
party did not answer and another if the line was busy. It decides
whom the message is for based on the called party information. If
the call originated from a subscriber's phone number, it might
authenticate the caller and then go directly to the message retrieval
and account maintenance menu.
When a new subscriber is added to a system, a set of identities could
be generated, each given a unique sip URI. The following tables show
some of the identities that might be generated (it is not
exhaustive). The example schemes show that the URIs could, but don't
necessarily have to, have mnemonic value.
Campbell & Sparks Informational [Page 3]
RFC 3087 SIP Service Control April 2001
In practical applications, it is important that an application does
not apply semantic rules to the various URIs. Instead, it should
allow any arbitrary string to be provisioned, and map the string to
the desired behavior. The owner of the system may choose to
provision mnemonic strings, but the application should not require
it. In any large installation, the system owner is likely to have
pre-existing rules for mnemonic URIs, and any attempt by an
application to define its own rules may create a conflict. For our
example, this means a voice mail system should allow an arbitrary mix
of URLs from these schemes, or any other scheme that renders valid
SIP URIs to be provisioned, rather than enforce one particular
scheme.
URI Identity Example Scheme 1
Example Scheme 2
Example Scheme 3
Deposit with sip:sub-rjs-deposit@vm.wcom.com
standard greeting sip:677283@vm.wcom.com
sip:rjs@vm.wcom.com;mode=deposit
Deposit with on sip:sub-rjs-deposit-busy.vm.wcom.com
phone greeting sip:677372@vm.wcom.com
sip:rjs@vm.wcom.com;mode=3991243
Deposit with sip:sub-rjs-deposit-sg@vm.wcom.com
special greeting sip:677384@vm.wcom.com
sip:rjs@vm.wcom.com;mode=sg
Retrieve - SIP sip:sub-rjs-retrieve@vm.wcom.com
authentication sip:677405@vm.wcom.com
sip:rjs@vm.wcom.com;mode=retrieve
Retrieve - prompt sip:sub-rjs-retrieve-inpin.vm.wcom.com
for PIN in-band sip:677415@vm.wcom.com
sip:rjs@vm.wcom.com;mode=inpin
When a service is first set up, identities such as the following
could be created.
URI Identity Example Scheme 1
Example Scheme 2
Example Scheme 3
Deposit - sip:deposit@vm.wcom.com
identify target sip:670001@vm.wcom.com
mailbox by To: sip:deposit@vm.wcom.com
Campbell & Sparks Informational [Page 4]RFC 3087 SIP Service Control April 2001
Retrieve - sip:retrieve@vm.wcom.com
identify target sip:670002@vm.wcom.com
mailbox by SIP sip:retrieve@vm.wcom.com
authentication
Deposit - prompt sip:deposit-in@vm.wcom.com
for target sip:670003@vm.wcom.com
mailbox in-band sip:deposit@vm.wcom.com;mode=inband
Retrieve - prompt sip:retrieve-in@vm.wcom.com
for target sip:670004@vm.wcom.com
mailbox and PIN sip:retrieve@vm.wcom.com;mode=inband
in-band
In addition to providing this set of URIs to the subscriber (to use
as he sees fit), an integrated service provider could add these to
the set of contacts in a find-me proxy. The proxy could then route
calls to the appropriate URI based on the origin of the request, the
subscriber's preferences and current state.
3. Voice Mail Scenario Descriptions
In each of these scenarios, the PSTN gateway is configured to
communicate only with a particular proxy-registrar.
3.1 Deposits
3.1.1 Direct Request to Deposit to a particular mailbox
3.1.1.1 SIP source
A SIP client that knew the URI for a particular deposit mailbox
(sip:sub-rjs-deposit@vm.wcom.com) could place a direct invitation to
the voicemail service, or through a protecting proxy. The proxy
could restrict access to deposit identities with special greetings by
authenticating the requester.
3.1.1.2 Arbitrary PSTN source
The gateway's proxy would map a call from an unrecognized PSTN number
to a number associated with a subscriber's mailbox into an invite to
the deposit with standard greeting URI (sip:sub-rjs-
deposit@vm.wcom.com).
Campbell & Sparks Informational [Page 5]RFC 3087 SIP Service Control April 2001
3.1.1.3 Recognized PSTN source
The gateway's proxy would map a call from a recognized (exact or
pattern match) PSTN number to a number associated with a subscriber's
mailbox into an invite to the appropriate special greeting URI
(sip:sub-rjs-deposit-sg@vm.wcom.com). The gateway's ability to
identify the calling party (using calling party number) is trusted,
so no further authentication of the requester is performed.
3.1.2 Direct Request to Deposit, mailbox to be determined
3.1.2.1 SIP source
A voice mail service or its protecting proxy could expose a generic
deposit URL for use when a caller wished to go directly to voice
mail. The service would likely play an IVR dialog to determine what
message store to deposit a message into.
An application designer may be tempted to attempt to match the To:
and From: headers on a call to infer information. However, this
approach could cause complications when multiple proxy forwards occur
in a call. For example, A calls B, who has all calls forwarded to C.
C forwards the call to her voice mail service. If the voice mail
service matches the To: header to determine the message store, it
will get the information for B instead of C. But there is no reason
to assume that C's voice mail service has any knowledge of B.
3.1.2.2 PSTN source
The gateway's proxy would map a call from an unrecognized PSTN number
to the top level voice mail service access number to an invite to the
Deposit - prompt for target mailbox in-band URI (sip:deposit-
in@vm.wcom.com for example). Getting the call to the target mailbox
would proceed as in the SIP source case.
3.1.2.3 Indirect Request to Deposit, due to find-me proxy decision
A find-me proxy could map an invitation to a subscriber
(sip:rjs@wcom.com) to the appropriate voice mail service URI
depending on the subscriber's current state. The normal deposit URI
could be chosen if the subscriber's contact list has been otherwise
exhausted with no answer. The busy-announcement URI would be chosen
when a busy everywhere response is received from one of the contacts.
A DND announcement URI could be selected if the subscriber had
activated DND. Calls to sip:receptionist@wcom.com could be configured
to roll to sip:deposit@wcom.com

RFC 3087 SIP Service Control April 2001
3.2 Retrievals
3.2.1 Request to Retrieve from a particular mailbox
3.2.1.1 Trusted SIP source
A request to retrieve the contents of a particular mailbox (sip:sub-
rjs-retrieve@vm.wcom.com) coming from a trusted source could be
honored without further authentication checks. A trusted source is
one with which the voice mail service has secure communications, and
to which it is willing to delegate authentication. This could be the
service's protecting proxy for example.
3.2.1.2 Authenticated SIP source
A service, or its protecting proxy, could choose to honor a retrieve
request for a particular mailbox (sip:sub-rjs-retrieve@vm.wcom.com)
based on SIP authentication. If SIP level authentication failed, the
service or proxy could be configured to send the call to the in-band
pin prompting URI (sip:sub-rjs-retrieve-inpin@vm.wcom.com).
3.2.1.3 Unauthenticated SIP source
A service, or its protecting proxy, receiving a retrieve request for
a particular mailbox (sip:sub-rjs-retrieve@vm.wcom.com) with no other
method of authenticating the requestor could send the request to the
in-band pin prompting URI (sip:sub-rjs-retrieve-inpin@vm.wcom.com).
3.2.1.4 PSTN source
This scenario assumes that the service provider's network has been
configured such that a PSTN number could be dialed explicitly for
retrieving messages from a particular mailbox. Such services
currently exist, but are not common. In such a network, the
gateway's proxy would map the call to the in-band pin prompting URI
(sip:sub-rjs-retrieve-inpin@vm.wcom.com).
3.2.2 Request to Retrieve, mailbox to be determined
3.2.2.1 SIP source
As in the Request to Deposit scenario, when a service receives a
request for the top level retrieve URI it would most likely need to
use in-band IVR techniques to determine the target mailbox and
authenticate the caller.
Campbell & Sparks Informational [Page 7]
RFC 3087 SIP Service Control April 2001
3.2.2.2 Arbitrary PSTN source
This scenario assumes there is a single PSTN number that subscribers
dial to access the voice mail service to retrieve messages. This is
the most common access method provided by current voice mail
services.
The gateway's proxy would map a call to the top level PSTN number to
the top level retrieve in-band prompting URI (sip:retrieve-
in@vm.wcom.com). Once the system identifies the target mailbox, the
call would be transferred to the appropriate in-band pin prompting
URI (sip:sub-rjs-retrieve-inpin@vm.wcom.com).
3.2.2.3 Recognized PSTN source
This scenario also assumes there is a single PSTN number that
subscribers dial to access the voice mail service to retrieve
messages.
The gateway's proxy would recognize the calling party number as a
subscriber, and map the call to the subscriber's in-band prompting
URI (sip:sub-rjs-retrieve-inpin@vm.wcom.com)
4. Voice Mail Call Flow Examples
The following section describes some example call flows for a
hypothetical voice mail service, with the host name of vm.wcom.com.
All the call flows assume that a proxy protects the voice mail
service and that a trust relationship exists between the voice mail
service and the proxy.
4.1 Generic Scenario
4.1.1 Direct call to the voice mail system
User A calls the voice mail system directly. The voice mail system
invokes the top-level menu, which might prompt the caller for an
extension or the first few letters of a name.

4.2 Message Deposit Scenarios
4.2.1 Call to known subscriber forwarded on no answer
User A attempts to call UserB, who does not answer. The call is
forwarded to UserB's mailbox, and the voice mail system plays UserB's
outgoing message for a ring-no-answer. The flow assumes that the URL
of "sip:UserB-dep-fna@vm.wcom.com maps" to the desired behavior for
depositing a message on a forward-no-answer.

4.2.2 Call to known subscriber forwarded on busy
User A attempts to call UserB, who is busy. The call is forwarded to
UserB's mailbox, and the voice mail system plays UserB's outgoing
message for a busy. This flow assumes that "sip:UserB-dep-
fb@vm.wcom.com" maps to UserB's mailbox and the behavior of "deposit
message on busy."

4.3 Message Retrieval Scenarios
4.3.1 Call to retrieve messages believed to be from a known subscriber
Some user uses a SIP client on UserA's desk to call the voice mail
system to retrieve messages. The SIP client has authenticated itself
to the proxy using credentials assigned to the device. The proxy can
make a weak assumption that the caller is the device owner. The URI
of "sip:UserA-retrieve@vm.wcom.com" maps to UserA's mailbox and the
behavior of "retrieve messages after prompting for and verifying
PIN." The VM System trusts the proxy, and will not accept calls from
an untrusted source. The proxy will not allow direct calls to
UserA-retrieve@vm.wcom.com. The proxy will forward calls placed to
VoiceMail@wcom.com to UserA-retrieve@vm.wcom.com only for calls
placed from a client device assigned to UserA.

4.3.2 Call to retrieve messages from an authenticated subscriber
UserA to call the voice mail system to retrieve messages.
Assumptions: The caller is authenticated using UserA's credentials.
"sip:UserA-retrieve-auth@vm.wcom.com" maps to UserA's mailbox and the
behavior of "retrieve messages." The voice mail service trusts the
proxy not to forward any calls to that URI unless the call is
authenticated to be from UserA.
Given these assumptions, The VM service may choose not require a PIN
for calls to this URI.
