Technical Summary
This document specifies a framework to enable configuration of
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) User Agents in SIP
deployments. The framework provides a means to deliver profile
data that User Agents need to be functional, automatically and
with minimal or no User and Administrative intervention. The
framework describes how SIP User Agents can discover sources,
request profiles and receive notifications related to profile
modifications. As part of this framework, a new SIP event package
is defined for notification of profile changes. The framework
provides minimal data retrieval options to ensure interoperability.
The framework does not include specification of the profile data
within its scope.
