That's interesting, can you tell me more about
that draft?
Hello
I have attached the draft.
There are 2 setups for using end-to-end OPTIONS ping
1. In Dialog... if one of the endpoints is a B2BUA, it can send at
specific interval in-dialog OPTIONS ping (OPTIONS request, increasing
cseq) to the other endpoint. Most well-behaved UAS will respond with a
481 if the dialog not longer exists as per RFC 3261 .
"The response to an OPTIONS is
constructed using the standard rules for a SIP response as discussed
in Section 8.2.6. The response code chosen MUST be the same that
would have been chosen had the request been an INVITE.
"
Other error conditions are on a 408 , 404 etc (as any in-dialog request
is not guaranteed to succeed).
This is already used some production environments.
2. Out of dialog. A proxy keeps sending OPTIONS request (no dialog
involved here) to one of the UA as long as one of these 2 conditions exist:
a. the dialog has not ended via a method specific mean (BYE for INVITE etc)
b. a 408 (or other error codes) was received when generating a BYE.
These where the big two points of the draft.

Hi,
Just want to ask what is the best way to check if calls are
still active especially when we are not handling media?
Thanks
Hello
There is SST (Sip Session Timers RFC 4028), which is implemented
in the SST module, but at least 1 UA must know the extension. Also
I have been working on a IETF draft to use end-to-end OPTIONS
ping to determine the operational status of a UA.(it works well
with B2BUA, relatively well with stateful proxies). If you are
interested I can talk more about the draft and how I propose using
OPTIONS requests for this.(no changes on UAs are necessary)
Marius.
