Abstract

The Session Initiation Protocol [2] currently uses the HTTP digest authentication algorithm [3] for simple authentication of SIP requests. This scheme does not allow for the inclusion of headers important to the integrity of a SIP request including To, From, Call-ID, CSeq, Contact and Expires headers. This document attempts to address this issue.
