The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the

Abstract


   This document defines and registers with IANA the new 'fax' media
   feature tag for use with SIP.  Currently, fax calls are
   indistinguishable from voice at call initiation.  Consequently, fax
   calls can be routed to SIP user agents that are not fax capable.  A
   'fax' media feature tag implemented in conjunction with caller
   preferences allows for more accurate fax call routing.
