Hi all,

I have a question that seems to be very easy at the beginning. But after
having a closer look to it, it is not so easy anymore. I hope somebody
has an answer for me?!

My question is: How can I idenify SIP Messages (or TCP packets containig
SIP messages) to filter them e.g. for QoS?

I mean, a SIP message has no real header, that says 'This is a SIP
message'. And using TCP or UDP, there is no field in the headers
identifying the protocol that is encapsulated.

The only idea is to use the default port 5060 for SIP messages (to
filter all messages that use this port), but what will happen, if the
port changes, or if other protocols use this port as well?

Is there any other possibility to identify SIP messages?

Thank you very much for your support!

Best regards

Daniela
