Diversion Indication in SIP
Abstract
This RFC, which contains the text of an Internet Draft that was
submitted originally to the SIP Working Group, is being published now
for the historical record and to provide a reference for later
Informational RFCs. The original Abstract follows.
This document proposes an extension to the Session Initiation
Protocol (SIP). This extension provides the ability for the called
SIP user agent to identify from whom the call was diverted and why
the call was diverted. The extension defines a general header,
Diversion, which conveys the diversion information from other SIP
user agents and proxies to the called user agent.
This extension allows enhanced support for various features,
including Unified Messaging, Third-Party Voicemail, and Automatic
Call Distribution (ACD). SIP user agents and SIP proxies that
receive diversion information may use this as supplemental
information for feature invocation decisions.

IESG Note
This document contains an early proposal to the IETF SIP Working
Group that was not chosen for standardization. Discussions on the
topic resulted in the informational RFC 3325, "Private Extensions to
the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for Asserted Identity within
Trusted Networks", and the standard solution that was chosen can be
found in RFC 4244, "An Extension to the Session Initiation Protocol
(SIP) for Request History Information".
