Dear Christer,

 

   It seems I’d better review all your comments firstJ.

  

   Thank you for answering my question.

 

Best regards,

Eric

This has been discussed, and the proposed outcome was to allow 199 to be sent 
unreliably even if 100rel is required.

The proxy should send 199 unreliably.

I'm glad you think 199 is useful :)

 

But, if a proxy would have to terminate PRACKs etc it would not be a proxy 
anymore - it would be a B2BUA.

 

So, if you really want your network to send 199 reliably, I guess you could use 
a B2BUA instead of a proxy.

The only way to prevent it is by the proxy not sending the 199 relaible.

Yes, but I we have agreed that a proxy is allowed to send 199.

 

But, the proxy is not going to generate new To header tag values for the 199. 
It will use whatever tags that have already been created for the early dialogs.

*allowing* (much less *requiring*) the 199 to be reliable introduces
nasty problems. The 199 is only an optimization, so having it be
unreliable is ok IMO.

The problem is that if a proxy sends the 199, then the recipient of the
PRACK should be the proxy. But the PRACK is an in-dialog message, so it
must be addressed to the Contact of the UAS.

If the proxy sends a reliable 199, and the PRACK is addressed to the
UAS, the UAS will be very surprised, since it has not send a reliable
provisional, and is so not expecting a PRACK. In fact, it has sent a
final response, has presumably already received the ACK, and so is
expecting nothing.

Very ugly.
