And to answer your other question... >>Can a Stateless Proxy initiate CANCEL after forwarding INVITE ...???
No. Regards, Attila -----Original Message----- From: Attila Sipos Sent: 16 March 2007 07:50 To: 'Adarsh Guler'; [email protected] Subject: RE: [Sip-implementors] Stateless Proxy. It seems to me that you don't think a proxy can ever initiate any responses but, of course, sometimes it must. For example, if it received Max-Forwards:0 in a request, it must respond with a 483 Too Many Hops response. In such cases the proxy behaves like a UAS. >From RFC3261... Being a proxy is a logical role for a SIP element. When a request arrives, an element that can play the role of a proxy first decides if it needs to respond to the request on its own. For instance, the request may be malformed or the element may need credentials from the client before acting as a proxy. The element MAY respond with any appropriate error code. When responding directly to a request, the element is playing the role of a UAS and MUST behave as described in Section 8.2. But once the request has been forwarded to the next hop, the proxy mustn't generate any responses itself because any responses will come from the next hop.
