Requirements for an End-to-End Session Identifier
in IP-Based Multimedia Communication Networks
Abstract
This document specifies the requirements for an end-to-end session
identifier in IP-based multimedia communication networks. This
identifier would enable endpoints, intermediate devices, and
management and monitoring systems to identify a session end-to-end
across multiple SIP devices, hops, and administrative domains.

RFC 7206 Requirements for End-to-End Session ID May 2014
1. Introduction
IP-based multimedia communication systems like SIP [1] and H.323 [2]
have the concept of a "call identifier" that is globally unique. The
identifier is intended to represent an end-to-end communication
