Providing session initiation protocol request contents method and system
View Patent ↗An embodiment provides a user equipment that includes a processor configured to receive a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) NOTIFY message transmitted by a network component as a result of a registration event. The SIP NOTIFY message contains at least a portion of information included in a first SIP message sent between a first user equipment and the network component. Another embodiment provides method and apparatus for a network node to determine whether filter criteria include one or more indicators that specify the need for information, and including in a second SIP message the information specified by the one or more indicators.
1. An Application Server (AS) for obtaining information regarding a User Equipment (UE), the AS comprising:
a processor configured to receive a session initiation protocol (SIP) message, the SIP message including a Multi-purpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) body, wherein the MIME body includes one of a SIP Register message as a whole or a SIP Response message as a whole,
wherein the processor is further configured to obtain the information from the SIP Register message or the SIP Response message within the MIME body.
2. The AS of claim 1 , wherein the new SIP message is a SIP NOTIFY message containing a registration event package transmitted as a result of a registration event, and the new SIP message contains the SIP Register message as a whole.
3. The AS of claim 1 , wherein the SIP Register message within the MIME body includes at least an initial line and a header field, and the AS obtains the information from the initial line or the header field.
4. The AS of claim 1 , wherein the new SIP message is received from a Serving Call-State Control-Function (S-CSCF).
5. The AS of claim 1 , wherein the SIP Register message within the MIME body has a start line and the SIP message has a start line that are not the same.
6. The AS of claim 1 , wherein the SIP Response message within the MIME body is a copy of a SIP 200 OK message sent to the UE in response to the SIP Register message.
7. The AS of claim 1 , wherein the SIP Register message within the MIME body comprises a first request uniform resource identifier (Request URI), the first Request URI comprising a SIP registrar address, and wherein the SIP message comprises a second Request URI, the second Request URI comprising an address of the AS.
8. A method for obtaining information regarding a User Equipment (UE), the method comprising:
receiving, at an Application Server (AS), a session initiation protocol (SIP) message, the SIP message including a Multi-purpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) body, wherein the MIME body includes one of a SIP Register message as a whole or a SIP Response message as a whole; and
obtaining the information from the SIP Register message or the SIP Response message within the MIME body.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the new SIP message is a SIP NOTIFY message containing a registration event package transmitted as a result of a registration event, and the new SIP message contains the SIP Register message as a whole.
10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the SIP Register message within the MIME body includes at least an initial line and a header field, and the AS obtains the information from the initial line or the header field.
11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the new SIP message is received from a Serving Call-State Control-Function (S-CSCF).
12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the SIP Register message within the MIME body has a start line and the SIP message has a start line that are not the same.
13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the SIP Response message within the MIME body is a copy of a SIP 200 OK message sent to the UE in response to the SIP Register message.
14. The method of claim 8 , wherein the SIP Register message within the MIME body comprises a first request uniform resource identifier (Request URI), the first Request URI comprising a SIP registrar address, and wherein the SIP message comprises a second Request URI, the second Request URI comprising an address of the AS.
15. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing computer readable instructions executable by a processor to implement a method for obtaining information regarding a User Equipment (UE), the method comprising:
receiving, at an Application Server (AS), a session initiation protocol (SIP) message, the SIP message including a Multi-purpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) body, wherein the MIME body includes one of a SIP Register message as a whole or a SIP Response message as a whole; and
obtaining the information from the SIP Register message or the SIP Response message within the MIME body.
16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the new SIP message is a SIP NOTIFY message containing a registration event package transmitted as a result of a registration event, and the new SIP message contains the SIP Register message as a whole.
17. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the SIP Register message within the MIME body includes at least an initial line and a header field, and the AS obtains the information from the initial line or the header field.
18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the SIP Register message within the MIME body has a start line and the SIP message has a start line that are not the same.
19. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the SIP Response message within the MIME body is a copy of a SIP 200 OK message sent to the UE in response to the SIP Register message.
20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the SIP Register message within the MIME body comprises a first request uniform resource identifier (Request URI), the first Request URI comprising a SIP registrar address, and wherein the SIP message comprises a second Request URI, the second Request URI comprising an address of the AS.
