Williams}, title = {{Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Rate Control}}, pagetotal = 12, year = 2011, month = dec, day = 12, abstract = {The prevalent use of Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) {[}RFC3261{]} in Next Generation Networks necessitates that SIP networks provide adequate control mechanisms to maintain transaction throughput by preventing congestion collapse during traffic overloads. Already {[}draft-ietf-soc-overload-control-05{]} proposes a loss-based solution to remedy known vulnerabilities of the {[}RFC3261{]} SIP 503 (service unavailable) overload control mechanism. This document proposes a rate-based control solution to complement the loss-based control defined in {[}draft-ietf-soc-overload-control-05{]}.}, }
