But as per Section 3.3 flow of RFC 3665, second 407 contains only one 
Proxy-authenticate header and not two headers, so how will UA know that he 
has to send two Proxy-Authorization headers in INVITE message.

Am I missing something?

yes, you can have multiple Proxy-Authenticate headers.

You might be able to store the response provided the challenge
hasn't changed.  I'm not sure.

But you could definitely just recalculate both authentication
responses (so you wouldn't have to store anything).
For the user being challenged you'd just have separate
passwords for each realm ( I assume the Proxy-Authenticate
headers would have different realms)

Hi,

Can UAC receive 407 response with multiple Proxy-authenticate headers?

As per RFC 3665 Section 3.3. flow, for multiple proxy authentication flow,
when proxy 2 challenges the request, proxy 1 sends 407 back to UAC with
only one Proxy-authenticate header containing the challenge of only proxy
2.

Is it responsibility of UAC to store the previous Proxy-Authorization that
it sent to proxy 1, and when it receives 407 again from proxy1 with
different challenge, sends the collated invite with both authorization
headers.

Regards,
Udit
