System and method for determining trust for SIP messages
A method for performing initial registration is provided. The method includes receiving a server timeout message, the server timeout message including at least a field set to a value equal to a value received during a first registration. The method further includes initiating restoration procedures by performing an initial registration.
1. A method for performing registration, the method comprising:
receiving, by a wireless user agent (UA), a message, the message being a server timeout message indicating a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) response code 504 ;
determining, by the wireless UA, that the server timeout message includes at least a first field set to a value equal to a value received in a second field during a first registration; and
initiating, by the wireless UA, restoration procedures by performing a second registration based on the determination that the server timeout message includes at least the first field set to the value equal to the value received in the second field during the first registration.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the value received in the server timeout message is a SIP Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of a Serving Call Session Control Function (S-CSCF).
3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the value received in the server timeout message is a SIP Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of a Proxy Call Session Control Function (P-CSCF).
4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first field comprises a P-Asserted-Identify header field.
5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second field is one of a Service-Route header field or a Path header field.
6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the UA does not initiate the restoration procedures upon the UA determining that the server timeout message value includes the first field set to a value not equal to the value received by the UA in the second field during the first registration.
7. A user agent (UA) to perform registration, the UA comprising:
one or more processors configured to:
receive a server timeout message indicating a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) response code 504 ;
determine that the server timeout message includes a first field set to a value equal to a value received by the UA in a second field during a first registration; and
initiate restoration procedures by performing a second registration based on the determination that the server timeout message includes at least the first field set to the value equal to the value received in the second field during the first registration.
8. The UA as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the value received in the server timeout message is a SIP Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of a Serving Call Session Control Function (S-CSCF).
9. The UA as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the value received in the server timeout message is a SIP Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of a Proxy Call Session Control Function (P-CSCF).
10. The UA as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the UA does not initiate the restoration procedures when the server timeout message value includes the first field set to a value not equal to the value received by the UA in the second field during the first registration.
11. The UA as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the first field comprises a P-Asserted-Identity header field.
12. The UA as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the second field is one of: a Service-Route header field or a Path header field.
13. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions executable by one or more processors to implement a method for performing registration, the method comprising:
receiving, by a user agent (UA) comprising the one or more processors, a message, the message being a server timeout message indicating a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) response code 504 ;
determining, by the UA, whether the server timeout message includes at least a first field set to a value equal to a value received in a second field during a first registration; and
initiating restoration procedures by performing a second registration upon the UA determining that the server timeout message value includes the first field set to a value equal to the value received by the UA in the second field during the first registration.
14. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the value received in the server timeout message is a SIP Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of a Serving Call Session Control Function (S-CSCF).
15. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the value received in the server timeout message is a SIP Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of a Proxy Call Session Control Function (P-CSCF).
16. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the first field comprises a P-Asserted-Identify header field.
17. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the second field is one of a Service-Route header field or a Path header field.
18. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the UA does not initiate the restoration procedures upon the UA determining that the server timeout message value includes the first field set to a value not equal to the value received by the UA in the second field during the first registration.
