Hi All,

I have some doubts related to SIP multicasting.

1. Is it possible to run multiple registrars with different domain names
(say D1 & D2) in a network?


2. Assuming (1) is possible and an UA that belongs to D1 sends multicast
REGISTER request to login. What will be the response of D2 on receiving
multicast REGISTER? I think D2 should not reply because, if the response
from D2 reaches first at UA, login will be failed since UA will take the
first response according to RFC 3261 Section 17.1.3


"If a request is sent via multicast, it is possible that it will generate
multiple responses from different servers.  These responses will all have
the same branch parameter in the topmost Via, but vary in the To tag.  The
first response received, based on the   rules above, will be used, and
others will be viewed as retransmissions. That is not an error; multicast
SIP provides only a rudimentary "single-hop-discovery-like" service that is
limited to processing a single response."


Can anyone clarify this please?


Thanks,
Suganthi
