Abstract

   This document provides a means for a Session Initiation Protocol
   (SIP) User Agent (UA) that receives a dialog-forming request to
   supply its identity to the peer UA by means of a request in the
   reverse direction, and for that identity to be signed by an
   Authentication Service.  Because of retargeting of a dialog-forming
   request (changing the value of the Request-URI), the UA that receives
   it (the User Agent Server, UAS) can have a different identity from
   that in the To header field.  The same mechanism can be used to
   indicate a change of identity during a dialog, e.g., because of some
   action in the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) behind a
   gateway.  This document normatively updates RFC 3261 (SIP).

RFC 4916                    SIP Connected ID                   June 2007


1.  Introduction

   The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) (RFC 3261 [1]) initiates
   sessions but also provides information on the identities of the
   parties at both ends of a session.  Users need this information to
   help determine how to deal with communications initiated by a SIP.
   The identity of the party who answers a call can differ from that of
   the initial called party for various reasons such as call forwarding,
   call distribution and call pick-up.  Furthermore, once a call has
   been answered, a party can be replaced by a different party with a
   different identity for reasons such as call transfer, call park and
   retrieval, etc.  Although in some cases there can be reasons for not
   disclosing these identities, it is desirable to have a mechanism for
   providing this information.

   This document extends the use of the From header field to allow it to
   convey what is commonly called "connected identity" information (the
   identity of the connected user) in either direction within the
   context of an existing INVITE-initiated dialog.  It can be used to
   convey:

   o  the callee identity to a caller when a call is answered;

   o  the identity of a potential callee prior to answer; or

   o  the identity of a user that replaces the caller or callee
      following a call rearrangement such as call transfer carried out
      within the PSTN or within a back-to-back user agent (B2BUA) using
      third party call control techniques.

      Note that the use of standard SIP call transfer techniques,
      involving the REFER method, leads to the establishment of a new
      dialog and hence normal mechanisms for caller and callee identity
      apply.

   The provision of the identity of the responder in a response
   (commonly called "response identity") is outside the scope of this
   document.

      Note that even if identity were to be conveyed somehow in a
      response, there would in general be difficulty authenticating the
      UAS.  Providing identity in a separate request allows normal
      authentication techniques to be used.

2.  Terminology

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [2].

   This specification defines the following additional terms:

   caller: the user of the UA that issues an INVITE request to initiate
        a call.

   caller identity: the identity (Address of Record) of a caller.

   callee: the user of the UA that answers a call by issuing a 2xx
        response to an INVITE request.

   callee identity: the identity (Address of Record) of a callee.

   potential callee: the user of any UA to which an INVITE request is
        targeted resulting in formation of an early dialog, but because
        of parallel or serial forking of the request, not necessarily
        the user that answers the call.

   connected user: any user involved in an established call, including
        the caller, the callee or any user that replaces the caller or
        callee following a call re-arrangement such as call transfer.

   connected identity: the identity (Address of Record) of a connected
        user.

3.  Overview of Solution

   A mid-dialog request is used to provide connected identity.  The User
   Agent Client (UAC) for that request inserts its identity in the From
   header field of the request.  To provide authentication, the Identity
   header field (RFC 4474 [3]) is inserted by a suitable Authentication
   Service on the path of the mid-dialog request.  Unless provided at
   the UAC, the Authentication Service is expected to be at a proxy that
   record routes and is able to authenticate the UAC.

   A request in the opposite direction to the INVITE request prior to or
   at the time the call is answered can indicate the identity of the
   potential callee or callee respectively.  A request in the same
   direction as the INVITE request prior to answer can indicate a change
   of caller.  A request in either direction after answering can
   indicate a change of the connected user.  In all cases, a dialog
   (early or confirmed) has to be established before such a request can
   be sent.



Elwell                      Standards Track                     [Page 4]

RFC 4916                    SIP Connected ID                   June 2007


   This solution uses the UPDATE method (RFC 3311 [4]) for the request,
   or in some circumstances the re-INVITE method.  To send the callee
   identity, the UAS for the INVITE request sends the UPDATE request
   after sending the 2xx response to the INVITE request and after
   receiving an ACK request.  To send the potential callee identity, RFC
   3262 [5] is expected to be supported.  In this case, the UAS for the
   INVITE request sends the UPDATE request after receiving and
   responding to a PRACK request (which occurs after sending a reliable
   1xx response to the INVITE request).  The UPDATE request could
   conceivably be used for other purposes too, e.g., it could be used
   during an early dialog to send the potential callee identity at the
   same time as a Session Description Protocol (SDP) offer for early
   media.  To indicate a connected identity change during an established
   call, either the UPDATE method or the re-INVITE method can be used.
   The re-INVITE method would be used if required for other purposes
   (e.g., when a B2BUA performs transfer using Third Party Call Control
   (3PCC) techniques it has to issue a re-INVITE request without an SDP
   offer to solicit an SDP offer from the UA).

   This solution involves changing the URI (not the tags) in the To and
   From header fields of mid-dialog requests and their responses,
   compared with the corresponding values in the dialog forming request
   and response.  Changing the To and From header field URIs was
   contemplated in Section 12.2.1.1 of RFC 3261 [1], which says:

      "Usage of the URI from the To and From fields in the original
      request within subsequent requests is done for backwards
      compatibility with RFC 2543 [6], which used the URI for dialog
      identification.  In this specification, only the tags are used for
      dialog identification.  It is expected that mandatory reflection
      of the original To and From URI in mid-dialog requests will be
      deprecated in a subsequent revision of this specification."

   This document therefore deprecates mandatory reflection of the
   original To and From URIs in mid-dialog requests and their responses,
   which constitutes a change to RFC 3261 [1].  This document makes no
   provision for proxies that are unable to tolerate a change of URI,
   since changing the URI has been expected for a considerable time.  To
   cater for any UAs that are not able to tolerate a change of URI, a
   new option tag "from-change" is introduced for providing a positive
   indication of support in the Supported header field.  By sending a
   request with a changed From header field URI only to targets that
   have indicated support for this option, there is no need to send this
   option tag in a Require header field.

   In addition to allowing the From header field URI to change during a
   dialog to reflect the connected identity, this document also requires
   a UA that has received a connected identity in the URI of the From

   header field of a mid-dialog request to use that URI in the To header
   field of any subsequent mid-dialog request sent by that UA.

   In the absence of a suitable Authentication Service on the path of
   the mid-dialog request, the UAS will receive an unauthenticated
   connected identity (i.e., without a corresponding Identity header
   field).  The implications of this are discussed in Section 7

4.  Behaviour

4.1.  Behaviour of a UA that Issues an INVITE Request Outside the
      Context of an Existing Dialog

   When issuing an INVITE request, a UA compliant with this
   specification MUST include the "from-change" option tag in the
   Supported header field.

      Note that sending the "from-change" option tag does not guarantee
      that connected identity will be received in subsequent requests.

4.2.  Behaviour of a UA that Receives an INVITE Request outside the
      Context of an Existing Dialog

   After receiving an INVITE request, a UA compliant with this
   specification MUST include the "from-change" option tag in the
   Supported header field of any dialog-forming response.

      Note that sending the "from-change" option tag does not guarantee
      that connected identity will be received in the event of a change
      of caller.

   After an early dialog has been formed, if the "from-change" option
   tag has been received in a Supported header field, the UA MAY issue
   an UPDATE request (RFC 3311 [4]) on the same dialog, subject to
   having sent a reliable provisional response to the INVITE request and
   having received and responded to a PRACK request.  After a full
   dialog has been formed (after sending a 2xx final response to the
   INVITE request), if the "from-change" option tag has been received in
   a Supported header field and an UPDATE request has not already been
   sent on the early dialog, the UA MUST issue an UPDATE request on the
   same dialog.  In either case, the UPDATE request MUST contain the
   callee's (or potential callee's) identity in the URI of the From
   header field (or an anonymous identity if anonymity is required).

      Note that even if the URI does not differ from that in the To
      header field URI of the INVITE request, sending a new request
      allows the Authentication Service to assert authentication of this
      identity and confirms to the peer UA that the connected identity



Elwell                      Standards Track                     [Page 6]

RFC 4916                    SIP Connected ID                   June 2007


      is the same as that in the To header field URI of the INVITE
      request.

4.3.  Behaviour of a UA Whose Identity Changes during an Established
      INVITE-initiated Dialog

   If the "from-change" option tag has been received in a Supported
   header field during an INVITE-initiated dialog and if the identity
   associated with the UA changes (e.g., due to transfer) compared to
   the last identity indicated in the From header field of a request
   sent by that UA, the UA MUST issue a request on the same dialog
   containing the new identity in the URI of the From header field (or
   an anonymous identity if anonymity is required).  For this purpose
   the UA MUST use the UPDATE method unless for other reasons the re-
   INVITE method is being used at the same time.

4.4.  General UA Behaviour

4.4.1.  Sending a Mid-Dialog Request

   When sending a mid-dialog request, a UA MUST observe the requirements
   of RFC 4474 [3] when populating the From header field URI, including
   provisions for achieving anonymity.

      This will allow an Authentication Service on the path of the mid-
      dialog request to insert an Identity header field.

   When sending a mid-dialog request, a UA MUST populate the To header
   field URI with the current value of the remote URI for that dialog,
   where this is subject to update in accordance with the rules of
   Section 4.4.2 of this document rather than being fixed at the
   beginning of the dialog in accordance with RFC 3261 [1].

   After sending a request with a revised From header field URI (i.e.,
   revised compared to the URI sent in the From header field of the
   previous request on this dialog or in the To header field of the
   received dialog-forming INVITE request if no request has been sent),
   the UA MUST send the same URI in the From header field of any future
   requests on the same dialog, unless the identity changes again.
   Also, the UA MUST be prepared to receive the revised URI in the To
   header field of subsequent mid-dialog requests and MUST also continue
   to be prepared to receive the old URI at least until a request
   containing the revised URI in the To header field has been received.

   The mid-dialog request can be rejected in accordance with RFC 4474
   [3] if the UAS does not accept the connected identity.  If the UAC
   receives a 428, 436, 437, or 438 response to a mid-dialog request it
   SHOULD regard the dialog as terminated in the case of a dialog-



Elwell                      Standards Track                     [Page 7]

RFC 4916                    SIP Connected ID                   June 2007


   terminating request and SHOULD take no action in the case of any
   other request.

      Any attempt to repeat the request or send any other mid-dialog
      request is likely to result in the same response, since the UA has
      no control over actions of the Authentication Service.

4.4.2.  Receiving a Mid-Dialog Request

   If a UA receives a mid-dialog request from the peer UA, the UA can
   make use of the identity in the From header field URI (e.g., by
   indicating to the user).  The UA MAY discriminate between signed and
   unsigned identities.  In the case of a signed identity, the UA SHOULD
   invoke a Verifier (see Section 4.6) if it cannot rely on the presence
   of a Verifier on the path of the request.

   If a UA receives a mid-dialog request from the peer UA in which the
   From header field URI differs from that received in the previous
   request on that dialog or that sent in the To header field of the
   original INVITE request and if the UA sends a 2xx response, the UA
   MUST update the remote URI for this dialog, as defined in RFC 3261
   [1].  This will cause the new value to be used in the To header field
   of subsequent requests that the UA sends, in accordance with the
   rules of Section 4.4.1.  If any other final response is sent the UA
   MUST NOT update the remote URI for this dialog.

4.5.  Authentication Service Behaviour

   An Authentication Service MUST behave in accordance with RFC 4474 [3]
   when dealing with mid-dialog requests.

      Note that RFC 4474 is silent on how to behave if the identity in
      the From header field is not one that the UAC is allowed to
      assert, and therefore it is a matter for local policy whether to
      reject the request or forward it without an Identity header field.
      Policy can be different for a mid-dialog request compared with
      other requests.

      Note that when UAs conform with this specification the
      Authentication Service should (subject to the normal rules for
      authentication) be able to authenticate the sender of a request as
      being the entity identified in the From header field and hence
      will be able provide a signature for this identity.  This is in
      contrast to UAs that do not support this specification, where
      retargeting and mid-dialog identity changes can render the From
      header field inaccurate as a means of identifying the sender of
      the request.

RFC 4916                    SIP Connected ID                   June 2007


4.6.  Verifier Behaviour

   When dealing with mid-dialog requests, an Authentication Service MUST
   behave in accordance with RFC 4474 [3] updated as stated below.

   RFC 4474 [3] states that it is a matter of policy whether to reject a
   request with a 428 (Use Identity Header) response if there is no
   Identity header field in the request.  A UA MAY adopt a different
   policy for mid-dialog requests compared with other requests.

4.7.  Proxy Behaviour

   A proxy that receives a mid-dialog request MUST be prepared for the
   To header field URI and/or the From header field URI to differ from
   those that appeared in the dialog-forming request and response.

   A proxy that is able to provide an Authentication Service for mid-
   dialog requests MUST record route if Supported: from-change is
   indicated in the dialog forming request received by the proxy from
   the UAC.

5.  Examples

   In the examples below, several messages contain unfolded lines longer
   than 72 characters.  These are captured between tags.  The single
   unfolded line is reconstructed by directly concatenating all lines
   appearing between the tags (discarding any line-feeds or carriage
   returns).

   In the examples, the domain example.com is assumed to have the
   following private key (rendered in PEM format).  The private key is
   used by the Authentication Service for generating the signature in
   the Identity header field.

5.1.  Sending Connected Identity after Answering a Call

   In this example, Carol's UA has been reached by retargeting at the
   proxy and thus her identity (AoR) is not equal to that in the To
   header field of the received INVITE request (Bob).  Carol's UA
   conveys Carol's identity in the From header field of an UPDATE
   request.  The proxy also provides an Authentication Service and
   therefore adds Identity and Identity-Info header fields to the UPDATE
   request.

      the To header field in the INVITE request/response.  However, the

5.2.  Sending Revised Connected Identity during a Call

   In this example, a call is established between Alice and Bob, where
   Bob (not shown) lies behind a B2BUA.  Bob's identity is conveyed by
   an UPDATE request.  Then the B2BUA executes call transfer using third
   party call control (3PCC) techniques as described in RFC 3725 [7]
   (e.g., under the control of a click-to-dial application).  As a
   result, Alice becomes connected to Carol (also not shown), and a re-
   INVITE request is issued allowing the session to be renegotiated.
   The B2BUA provides the Authentication Service and thus generates the
   Identity header field in the re-INVITE request to provide
   authentication of Carol's identity.

6.  IANA Considerations

   This specification registers a new SIP option tag, as per the
   guidelines in Section 27.1 of RFC 3261 [1].

   This document defines the SIP option tag "from-change".

   The following row has been added to the "Option Tags" section of the
   SIP Parameter Registry:

   +------------+------------------------------------------+-----------+
   | Name       | Description                              | Reference |
   +------------+------------------------------------------+-----------+
   | from-change| This option tag is used to indicate that | [RFC4916] |
   |            | a UA supports changes to URIs in From    |           |
   |            | and To header fields during a dialog.    |           |
   +------------+------------------------------------------+-----------+

7.  Security considerations

   RFC 4474 [3] discusses security considerations relating to the
   Identity header field in some detail.  Those same considerations
   apply when using the Identity header field to authenticate a
   connected identity in the From header field URI of a mid-dialog
   request.

   A received From header field URI in a mid-dialog request for which no
   valid Identity header field (or other means of authentication) has
   been received either in this request or in an earlier request on this



Elwell                      Standards Track                    [Page 21]

RFC 4916                    SIP Connected ID                   June 2007


   dialog cannot be trusted (except in very closed environments) and is
   expected to be treated in a similar way to a From header field in a
   dialog-initiating request that is not backed up by a valid Identity
   header field.  However, it is recommended not to reject a mid-dialog
   request on the grounds that the Identity header field is missing
   (since this would interfere with ongoing operation of the call).  The
   absence of a valid Identity header field can influence the
   information given to the user.  A UA can clear the call if policy or
   user preference dictates.

   A signed connected identity in a mid-dialog request (URI in the From
   header field accompanied by a valid Identity header field) provides
   information about the peer UA in a dialog.  In the case of the UA
   that was the UAS in the dialog-forming request, this identity is not
   necessarily the same as that in the To header field of the dialog-
   forming request.  This is because of retargeting during the routing
   of the dialog-forming request.  A signed connected identity says
   nothing about the legitimacy of such retargeting, but merely reflects
   the result of that retargeting.  History information (RFC 4244 [8])
   can provide additional hints as to how the connected user has been
   reached.

   Likewise, when a signed connected identity indicates a change of
   identity during a dialog, it conveys no information about the reason
   for such a change of identity or its legitimacy.

   Use of the sips URI scheme can minimize the chances of attacks in
   which inappropriate connected identity information is sent, either at
   call establishment time or during a call.

   Anonymity can be required by the user of a connected UA.  For
   anonymity the UA is expected to populate the URI in the From header
   field of a mid-dialog request in the way described in RFC 4474 [3].
