I don't think that you can make the assertion that "technically a UA is still within the same boot cycle even when the network connection is lost".
I have come across network devices that reboot themselves if they lose network connection for a long period. In the particular case I'm thinking of the device would attempt to DHCP for it's network address etc, but would also run a master timer to reboot itself if it didn't obtain a lease within a certain time. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 16 November 2005 21:53 To: [email protected] Subject: [Sip-implementors] Call-ID usage by UA within the same boot cycle,after a network failure Hi All, RFC 3261 states that "A UA SHOULD use the same Call-ID for all registrations during a single boot cycle." And technically a UA is still within the same boot cycle even when the network connection is lost. Right? Hence is it fair to assume that UA should generate the same Call-ID when UA remains powered on, and got reconnected to network after a network failure ? (maybe Home gateway or DSL/cable modem or Internet SP failure). Will be great if anyone can confim if my assumptions are correct. _______________________________________________ Sip-implementors mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/sip-implementors
