The basic defintion says why it is considered that way.
 
Specifically, a
   SIP transaction consists of a single request and any responses to
   that request, which include zero or more provisional responses and
   one or more final responses.
 
Transaction is complete with atleast one final responses. For a non-200OK,
there has been no final response yet so it is considered the same
transaction. The moment the final response comes back ( 200OK), the
transaction is complete...for INVITE, the 200OK compeles the transaction.

Subject: [Sip] sip transcation query


Hello All,
                    In rfc 3261 section 6 Definition 
 
 SIP Transaction : 
                                   ....
                                   .....
                                   If the request is INVITE and the final
response is a non-2xx, the transaction also
         includes an ACK to the response.  The ACK for a 2xx response to an
INVITE request is a separate transaction.
 
 My query is why ACK is considered as a part of same transaction when in
case of non-2xx response.?
 
 
 
regards
 
VIkram
