RFC 5370 Conference Transcoding Model October 20081. IntroductionRFC 5369 [RFC5369] describes how two SIP [RFC3261] UAs (User Agents) can discover incompatibilities that prevent them from establishing a session (e.g., lack of support for a common codec or for a common media type). When such incompatibilities are found, the UAs need to invoke transcoding services to successfully establish the session. The transcoding framework introduces two models to invoke transcoding services: the 3pcc (third-party call control) model [RFC4117] and the conference bridge model. This document specifies the conference bridge model. In the conference bridge model for transcoding invocation, a transcoding server that provides a particular transcoding service (e.g., speech-to-text) behaves as a B2BUA (Back-to-Back User Agent) between both UAs and is identified by a URI. As shown in Figure 1, both UAs, A and B, exchange signalling and media with the transcoder T. The UAs do not exchange any traffic (signalling or media) directly between them. +-------+ | |** | T | ** | |\ ** +-------+ \\ ** ^ * \\ ** | * \\ ** | * SIP ** SIP * \\ ** | * \\ ** | * \\ ** v * \ ** +-------+ +-------+ | | | | | A | | B | | | | | +-------+ +-------+ <-SIP-> Signalling ******* Media Figure 1: Conference bridge model Sections3 and4 specify how the caller A or the callee B, respectively, can use the conference bridge model to invoke transcoding services from T.Camarillo Standards Track [Page 2]
RFC 5370 Conference Transcoding Model October 20082. Terminology In this document, the key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" are to be interpreted as described inBCP 14,RFC 2119 [RFC2119], and indicate requirement levels for compliant implementations.3. Caller's Invocation User agent A needs to perform two operations to invoke transcoding services from T for a session between user agent A and user agent B. User agent A needs to establish a session with T and provide T with user agent B's URI so that T can generate an INVITE towards user agent B.3.1. Procedures at the User Agent User agent A uses the procedures forRFC 5366 [RFC5366] to provide T with B's URI using the same INVITE that establishes the session between A and T. That is, user agent A adds to the INVITE a body part whose disposition type is recipient-list [RFC5363]. This body part consists of a URI-list that contains a single URI: user agent B's URI. Note that, as described in the transcoding framework [RFC5369], the transcoding model described in this document is modeled as a two-party conference server. Consequently, this document focuses on two-party sessions that need transcoding. Multi-party sessions can be established using INVITE requests with multiple URIs in their bodies, as specified in [RFC5366].3.2. Procedures at the Transcoder On receiving an INVITE with a URI-list body, the transcoder follows the procedures in [RFC5366] to generate an INVITE request towards the URI contained in the URI-list body. Note that the transcoder acts as a B2BUA, not as a proxy. Additionally, the transcoder MUST generate the From header field of the outgoing INVITE request using the same value as the From header field included in the incoming INVITE request, subject to the privacy requirements (see [RFC3323] and [RFC3325]) expressed in the incoming INVITE request. Note that this does not apply to the "tag" parameter.Camarillo Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 5370 Conference Transcoding Model October 2008 The session description the transcoder includes in the outgoing INVITE request depends on the type of transcoding service that particular transcoder provides. For example, a transcoder resolving audio codec incompatibilities would generate a session description listing the audio codecs the transcoder supports. When the transcoder receives a final response for the outgoing INVITE requests, it generates a new final response for the incoming INVITE request. This new final response SHOULD have the same status code as the one received in the response for the outgoing INVITE request. If a transcoder receives an INVITE request with a URI-list with more than one URI, it SHOULD return a 488 (Max 1 URI allowed in URI-list) response.3.3. Example Figure 2 shows the message flow for the caller's invocation of a transcoder T. The caller A sends an INVITE (1) to the transcoder (T) to establish the session A-T. Following the procedures in [RFC5366], the caller A adds a body part whose disposition type is recipient- list [RFC5363].

RFC 5370 Conference Transcoding Model October 2008 The following example shows an INVITE with two body parts: an SDP [RFC4566] session description and a URI-list. INVITE sip:transcoder@example.com SIP/2.0 Via: SIP/2.0/TCP client.chicago.example.com ;branch=z9hG4bKhjhs8ass83 Max-Forwards: 70 To: Transcoder <sip:transcoder@example.org> From: A <sip:A@chicago.example.com>;tag=32331 Call-ID: d432fa84b4c76e66710 CSeq: 1 INVITE Contact: <sip:A@client.chicago.example.com> Allow: INVITE, ACK, CANCEL, OPTIONS, BYE, REFER, SUBSCRIBE, NOTIFY Allow-Events: dialog Accept: application/sdp, message/sipfrag Require: recipient-list-invite Content-Type: multipart/mixed;boundary="boundary1" Content-Length: 556 --boundary1 Content-Type: application/sdp v=0 o=example 2890844526 2890842807 IN IP4 chicago.example.com s=- c=IN IP4 192.0.2.1 t=0 0 m=audio 50000 RTP/AVP 0 a=rtpmap:0 PCMU/8000 --boundary1 Content-Type: application/resource-lists+xml Content-Disposition: recipient-list <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <resource-lists xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:resource-lists" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <list> <entry uri="sip:B@example.org" /> </list> </resource-lists> --boundary1-- On receiving the INVITE, the transcoder generates a new INVITE towards the callee. The transcoder acts as a B2BUA, not as a proxy. Therefore, this new INVITE (3) belongs to a different transaction than the INVITE (1) received by the transcoder.Camarillo Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 5370 Conference Transcoding Model October 2008 When the transcoder receives a final response (4) from the callee, it generates a new final response (6) for INVITE (1). This new final response (6) has the same status code as the one received in the response from the callee (4).3.4. Unsuccessful Session Establishment Figure 3 shows a similar message flow as the one in Figure 3. Nevertheless, this time the callee generates a non-2xx final response (4). Consequently, the transcoder generates a non-2xx final response (6) towards the caller as well. A T B | | | |-----(1) INVITE SDP A----->| | | | | |<-(2) 183 Session Progress-| | | |-----(3) INVITE SDP TB---->| | | | | |<----(4) 603 Decline-------| | | | | |---------(5) ACK---------->| |<----(6) 603 Decline-------| | | | | |---------(7) ACK---------->| | | | | Figure 3: Unsuccessful session establishment The ambiguity in this flow is that, if the provisional response (2) gets lost, the caller does not know whether the 603 (Decline) response means that the initial INVITE (1) was rejected by the transcoder or that the INVITE generated by the transcoder (4) was rejected by the callee. The use of the "History-Info" header field [RFC4244] between the transcoder and the caller resolves the previous ambiguity. Note that this ambiguity problem could also have been resolved by having transcoders act as a pure conference bridge. The transcoder would respond with a 200 (OK) to the INVITE request from the caller, and it would generate an outgoing INVITE request towards the callee. The caller would get information about the result of the latter INVITE request by subscribing to the conference event package [RFC4575] at the transcoder. Although this flow would have resolved the ambiguity problem without requiring support for the "History- Info" header field, it is more complex, requires a higher number of messages, and introduces higher session setup delays. That is why it was not chosen to implement transcoding services.Camarillo Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 5370 Conference Transcoding Model October 20084. Callee's Invocation If a UA receives an INVITE with a session description that is not acceptable, it can redirect it to the transcoder by using a 302 (Moved Temporarily) response. The Contact header field of the 302 (Moved Temporarily) response contains the URI of the transcoder plus a "?body=" parameter. This parameter contains a recipient-list body with B's URI. Note that some escaping (e.g., for Carriage Returns and Line Feeds) is needed to encode a recipient-list body in such a parameter. Figure 4 shows the message flow for this scenario. A T B | | | |-------------------(1) INVITE SDP A------------------->| | | | |<--------------(2) 302 Moved Temporarily---------------| | | | |-----------------------(3) ACK------------------------>| | | | |-----(4) INVITE SDP A----->| | | | | |<-(5) 183 Session Progress-| | | |-----(6) INVITE SDP TB---->| | | | | |<-----(7) 200 OK SDP B-----| | | | | |---------(8) ACK---------->| |<----(9) 200 OK SDP TA-----| | | | | |--------(10) ACK---------->| | | | | | ************************* | ************************* | |** Media **|** Media **| | ************************* | ************************* | Figure 4: Callee's invocation of a transcoder Note that the syntax resulting from encoding a body into a URI as described earlier is quite complex. It is actually simpler for callees to invoke transcoding services using the 3pcc transcoding model [RFC4117] instead.5. Security Considerations Transcoders implementing this specification behave as a URI-list service as described in [RFC5366]. Therefore, the security considerations for URI-list services discussed in [RFC5363] apply here as well.Camarillo Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 5370 Conference Transcoding Model October 2008 In particular, the requirements related to list integrity and unsolicited requests are important for transcoding services. User agents SHOULD integrity protect URI-lists using mechanisms such as S/MIME [RFC3850] or TLS [RFC5246], which can also provide URI-list confidentiality if needed. Additionally, transcoders MUST authenticate and authorize users and MAY provide information about the identity of the original sender of the request in their outgoing requests by using the SIP identity mechanism [RFC4474]. The requirement in [RFC5363] to use opt-in lists (e.g., usingRFC5360 [RFC5360]) deserves special discussion. The type of URI-list service implemented by transcoders following this specification does not produce amplification (only one INVITE request is generated by the transcoder on receiving an INVITE request from a user agent) and does not involve a translation to a URI that may be otherwise unknown to the caller (the caller places the callee's URI in the body of its initial INVITE request). Additionally, the identity of the caller is present in the INVITE request generated by the transcoder. Therefore, there is no requirement for transcoders implementing this specification to use opt-in lists.6. Contributors This document is the result of discussions amongst the conferencing design team.
