As I said when I submitted the draft, and which Hadriel also indicated, we DO need to sort out the terminology :) (I think Hadriel even had some proposed alternative wording). ------------- >Section 4.1 says: > > A UA MUST NOT, except when it acts as a SIP registrar, insert a > Feature-Caps header field in a SIP request or response. > > By this do you intend that a B2BUA/SBC cannot use this? > > Or are you drawing a fine line, where an element nominally acting as a > proxy inserts this, even if it describes a feature that will require it > starting to act as a B2BUA in the same dialog? The issue is not whether the entity is a proxy or a B2BUA, or a registrar. It's about an entity which is not "represented" by the Contact header field, or an entity which is not allowed (by SIP rules) to use the Contact header field. And, again, I totally agree that we need to use other wording than "proxy" and "UA", to make that clear :) ------------- >In section 6.2: > > If a feature tag is inserted in a Feature-Caps header field of an > initial SIP request or response for a dialog, the feature associated > with the feature tag MUST be supported for the dialog, until the > dialog is terminated. > > Do you mean that it cannot be changed by subsequent signaling within the > dialog? If Feature-Caps can be used by a 3pcc (b2bua) controller (can > it?) then this limitation could break 3pcc transfers, where the > transfer-target has different features. The limitation seems to be a left-over from when the draft used Record-Route. If needed, for Feature-Caps, we can always specify that entities must include it e.g. also in target refresh requests within a session. ------------- > Section 8: > > Since this is using feature tags, it has to live with the IANA > registration mechanism defined in 2506.

That means it won't be possible to discern from a feature > tag registration whether it applicable for use in Feature-Caps. I don't know remember whether the references are optional or not, but at least 3GPP has provided them for all feature tags. But, in general, I still think we can provide guidance and recommendations in the spec on what kind of information needs to be provided in the definition/registration.
