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 a message, the message being a server timeout message, the server timeout message including 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 in response to receiving the server timeout message.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the value received in the server timeout message is a SIP URI of a S-CSCF.
3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the value received in the server timeout message is a SIP URI of a 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 and a Path header field.
6. A user agent (UA) to perform registration, the UA comprising:
one or more processors configured to receive a message, and in response to receiving a server timeout message including a first field set to a value equal to a value received by the UA in a second field during a first registration, to cause the UA to initiate restoration procedures by performing a second registration.
7. The UA as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the value received by the UA during the registration is a SIP URI of a S-CSCF.
8. The UA as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the value received by the UA during the registration is a SIP URI of a P-CSCF.
9. The UA as claimed in claim 6 , wherein 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, the UA does not initiate restoration.
10. The UA as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the first field comprises a P-Asserted-Identity header field.
11. The UA as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the second field is one of: a Service-Route header field and a Path header field.
