The FOOBAR process is a re-INVITE with a new session-expires header. The only difference is that the initial INVITE has the clients requesting duration, where your proposal has the model of the SIP server specifying the initial duration. The question of the softness or hardness of the state is up the SIP server implementation. I suppose one optimization to the current draft is to give the SIP Server the ability to specify an acceptable session time in the situations where the client either doesn't specify a duration or when the client specifies an unacceptable (too long) duration. > PatC > > > >Steve > > > >> -----Original Message----- > >> From: Pat.Calhoun@Eng.Sun.COM [SMTP:Pat.Calhoun@Eng.Sun.COM] > >> Sent: Friday, February 12, 1999 9:39 AM > >> To: Jonathan Rosenberg; Pat.Calhoun@Eng.Sun.COM > >> Cc: Donovan, Steven R.
