While I agree that logically the to-tag is in some cases unnecessary in cases like this, the fact is that 3261 requires that the tag be present. It would make no sense to try to change that at this late time. So the UAS should simply do as it is required to do - generate a tag and put it in the response.

Hi,

Are 407 challenges meant to have a To tag? If so, I can't find the
rationale in 3261. Any pointers would be appreciated.

(working from memory)

An argument against to-tag in 407 would presumably apply equally to any

3xx, 4xx, 5xx, or 6xx. One could argue that the to-tag is for
establishing a dialog, and if no dialog has been established then it
isn't needed.

OTOH, AFAIK the requirement to include a to-tag is across the board.

        Thanks,
