Expires August 15, 2004 [Page 2] Internet-Draft Conference Package February 2004 1. Introduction The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) [3] Events framework [2] defines general mechanisms for subscribing to, and receiving notifications of, events within SIP networks. It introduces the notion of a package, which is a specific "instantiation" of the events framework for a well-defined set of events. Here, we define an event package for SIP conferences. This package provides the conference notification service as outlined in the SIP conferencing framework [9]. As described there, subscriptions to a conference URI are routed to the focus that is handling the conference. It acts as the notifer, and provides clients with updates on conference state. The information provided by this package is comprised of conference identifier(s), conference participants (optionally with their statuses and media types) and conference sidebars. Rosenberg, et al. Expires August 15, 2004 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Conference Package February 2004 2. Terminology In this document, the key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [1] and indicate requirement levels for compliant implementations. Rosenberg, et al. Expires August 15, 2004 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Conference Package February 2004 3. Conference Event Package The conference event package allows a user to subscribe to a conference. In SIP, conferences are represented by URIs. These URIs route to a SIP user agent, called a focus, that is responsible for ensuring that all users in the conference can communicate with each other [9]. The focus has sufficient information about the state of the conference to inform subscribers about it. It is possible a participant in the conference may in fact be another focus. In order to provide a more complete participant list, the focus MAY subscribe to the conference package of the other focus to discover the participant list in the cascaded conference. This information can then be included in notifications by using of the "cascaded-focus" attribute as specified by this package. This section provides the details for defining a SIP Events package, as specified by [2]. 3.1 Event Package Name The name of this event package is "conference". This package name is carried in the Event and Allow-Events header, as defined in [2]. 3.2 SUBSCRIBE Bodies A SUBSCRIBE for a conference package MAY contain a body. This body defines a filter to apply to the subscription. Filter documents are not specified in this document, and at the time of writing, are expected to be the subject of future standardization activity. A SUBSCRIBE for a conference package MAY be sent without a body. This implies the default subscription filtering policy. The default policy is: o Notifications are generated every time there is any change in the state of the conference. o Notifications do not normally contain full state; rather, they only indicate the state that has changed. The exception is a NOTIFY sent in response to a SUBSCRIBE. These NOTIFYs contain the full state of the information requested by the subscriber. 3.3 Subscription Duration The default expiration time for a subscription to a conference is one hour. Once the conference ends, all subscriptions to that particular Rosenberg, et al. Expires August 15, 2004 [Page 5] Internet-Draft Conference Package February 2004 conference are terminated, with a reason of "noresource" [2]. 3.4 NOTIFY Bodies As described in RFC 3265 [2], the NOTIFY message will contain bodies that describe the state of the subscribed resource. This body is in a format listed in the Accept header field of the SUBSCRIBE, or a package-specific default if the Accept header field was omitted from the SUBSCRIBE. In this event package, the body of the notification contains a conference information document. This document describes the state of a conference. All subscribers and notifiers MUST support the "application/conference-info+xml" data format described in Section 4. The subscribe request MAY contain an Accept header field. If no such header field is present, it has a default value of "application/ conference-info+xml". If the header field is present, it MUST include "application/conference-info+xml", and MAY include any other types capable of representing dialog state. Of course, the notifications generated by the server MUST be in one of the formats specified in the Accept header field in the SUBSCRIBE request. 3.5 Notifier Processing of SUBSCRIBE Requests The conference information contains very sensitive information. Therefore, all subscriptions SHOULD be authenticated and then authorized before approval. Authorization policy is at the discretion of the administrator, as always. However, a few recommendations can be made. It is RECOMMENDED that all users in the conference be allowed to subscribe to the conference. 3.6 Notifier Generation of NOTIFY Requests Notifications SHOULD be generated for the conference whenever there is a change in the state in any of the information delivered to the subscriber. The changes generally occur when a new participant joins, a participant leaves, or a participant is put on-hold. Subject to a local focus policy, changes in media types and other optional media attributes MAY be reported by the focus. In addition, creation and deletion of sidebars together with their rosters MAY be reported by the focus, subject to its local policy. Rosenberg, et al. Expires August 15, 2004 [Page 6] Internet-Draft Conference Package February 2004 3.7 Subscriber Processing of NOTIFY Requests The SIP Events framework expects packages to specify how a subscriber processes NOTIFY requests in any package specific ways, and in particular, how it uses the NOTIFY requests to contruct a coherent view of the state of the subscribed resource. Typically, the NOTIFY for the conference package will only contain information about those users whose state in the conference has changed. To construct a coherent view of the total state of all users, a subscriber to the conference package will need to combine NOTIFYs received over time. Notifications within this package can convey partial information; that is, they can indicate information about a subset of the state associated with the subscription. This means that an explicit algorithm needs to be defined in order to construct coherent and consistent state. The details of this mechanism are specific to the particular document type. See Section 4.2 for information on constructing coherent information from an application/ conference-info+xml document. 3.8 Handling of Forked Requests By their nature, the conferences supported by this package are centralized. Therefore, SUBSCRIBE requests for a conference should not generally fork. Users of this package MUST NOT install more than a single subscription as a result of a single SUBSCRIBE request. 3.9 Rate of Notifications For reasons of congestion control, it is important that the rate of notifications not become excessive. As a result, it is RECOMMENDED that the server not generate notifications for a single subscriber at a rate faster than once every 5 seconds. 3.10 State Agents Conference state is ideally maintained in the element in which the conference resides. Therefore, the elements that maintain the conference are the ones best suited to handle subscriptions to it. Therefore, the usage of state agents is NOT RECOMMENDED for this package. Rosenberg, et al. Expires August 15, 2004 [Page 7] Internet-Draft Conference Package February 2004 4. Conference Data Format Conference information is an XML document that MUST be well-formed and SHOULD be valid. Dialog information documents MUST be based on XML 1.0 and MUST be encoded using UTF-8. This specification makes use of XML namespaces for identifying dialog information documents and document fragments. The namespace URI for elements defined by this specification is a URN [4], using the namespace identifier 'ietf' defined by [5] and extended by [6]. This URN is: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:conference-info A conference information document begins with the root element tag "conference-info". 4.1 Conference Information Conference information begins with the top level element "conference-info". This element has three mandatory and one optional attributes: version: This mandatory attribute allows the recipient of conference information documents to properly order them. Versions start at 0 and increment by one for each new document sent to a subscriber. Versions are scoped within a subscription. Versions MUST be represented using a 32 bit integer. state: This mandatory attribute indicates whether the document contains the full conference information, or whether it contains only the information that has changed since the previous document (partial). entity: This mandatory attribute contains the conference URI that identifies the conference being described in the document. recording: This optional attribute indicates whether the conference is being recorded at this moment ("on") or not ("off"). The "conference-info" element has zero or more "user" sub-elements which contain information on the users in the conference. This is followed by zero or more "sidebar" sub-elements which contain information on the sidebars in the conference. This is followed by zero or more "conf-uri" sub-elements which contain information on additional URIs that the conference can be accessed by. This is followed by zero or more "policy-uri" sub-elements which contain information on additional URIs that the conference policies can be accessed by. Rosenberg, et al. Expires August 15, 2004 [Page 8] Internet-Draft Conference Package February 2004 4.1.1 User Element The user element has one mandatory attribute, "uri" that indicates the URI for the user in the conference. This is a logical identifier, not a machine specific one (i.e., it's taken from the authenticated identity of the participant). The optional attribute "display-name" contains a display name for the user. The standard "xml:lang" language attribute can also be present to indicate the language of the display-name. The optional attribute "cascaded-focus" contains a conference URI (different from the main conference URI) for users that are connected to the main conference as a result of focus cascading. In accordance with the SIP conferencing framework [9], this defined package allows for representation of peer-to-peer (i.e. "flat") focus cascading only. The actual cascading graph is not explicitly expressed in this package because most applications do not care about the actual topology of the cascaded focuses as long as the information about their participants is available. In addition, an advanced application can construct the graph by subscribing to both this package and the Dialog Package [10] of the involved focuses and correlating the required information. 4.1.1.1 User Statuses Three optional status elements are defined: status, joining-mode, and disconnection-reason. o "status": provides information about user's current level of participation in the conference. o "joining-mode": if present, provides information about the way the user joined the conference. o "disconnection-reason": if present, provides information about the way the user left the conference. The following statuses are defined for the "status" element: connected: The user is a participant in the conference. Depending on the media policies, he/she can send and receive media to and from other participants. disconnected: The user is not a participant in the conference and no active dialog exists between the user and the focus. Rosenberg, et al. Expires August 15, 2004 [Page 9] Internet-Draft Conference Package February 2004 on-hold: Active SIP dialog exists between a user and a focus, but user is "on-hold" for this conference, i.e. neither he/she is "hearing" the conference mix, nor is his/her media being mixed in the conference. As an example, the user has asked to join the conference using SIP, but his/her participation is pending based on moderator approval. In the meantime he/she is hearing music-on-hold or some other kind of related content. muted-by-focus: Active SIP dialog exists between a user and a focus and the user can "listen" to the conference, but user's media is not being mixed into the conference. The following statuses are defined for the "joining-mode" element: dialed-in: The user dialed into the conference, i.e. sent INVITE to the focus, which resulted in successful dialog establishment. dialed-out: The focus has brought the user into the conference by sending a successful INVITE to the user. focus-owner: The user is the focus itself for this conference. The following statuses are defined for the disconnection-reason element: departed: The user sent a BYE, thus leaving the conference. booted: The user was sent a BYE by the focus, booting him/her out of the conference. Alternatively, the user tried to dial into to conference without success because was rejected by the focus according to local policy decisions. failed: The server tried to bring the user into the conference, but its attempt to contact the specific user resulted in a non-200 class final response. Alternatively, the user tried to dial into the conference without success due to technical reasons. 4.1.1.2 Media Stream Information Each user has zero or more "media-stream" sub-elements. Each "media-stream" element indicates the media stream that the user is currently connected to. Here, "connected to" implies that a user has a media line in their SDP [12]. With this definition, a user is connected to a media stream even if they are not sending any media. The "media-stream" element has a mandatory "media-type" attribute Rosenberg, et al. Expires August 15, 2004 [Page 10] Internet-Draft Conference Package February 2004 which identifies the media type (e.g. audio, video, message and application) and MUST have one of the values registered for "media" of SDP [12]. The "media-stream" element has also an optional "proto" sub-element, which MUST has the value registered for "proto" of SDP [12]). An optional "ssrc" sub-element, if present, carries the value of SSRC (RTP/RTCP [8]) as generated by the user for the stream it sends. When an RTP mixer generates a CSRC list according to RTP/RTCP [8], it inserts a list of the SSRC identifiers of the sources that contributed to the generation of a particular packet into the RTP header of that packet. "An example application is audio conferencing where a mixer indicates all the talkers whose speech was combined to produce the outgoing packet, allowing the receiver to indicate the current talker, even though all the audio packets contain the same SSRC identifier (that of the mixer)." 4.1.2 Sidebar The sidebar element has one attribute - "entity" that indicates the URI which identifiers the sidebar. A sidebar has zero or more users that are of type "user-type" as the users of the main conference are. 4.1.3 Additional Conference Identifiers In addition to the Conference URI present in the "entity" attribute, a conference MAY have additional URIs of various types. Connecting to these URIs will result in joining to the same conference. 4.1.4 Policy URIs A policy URI specifies where and how a certain policy pertaining to the conference can be accessed. The actual policy name and usage is deduced from the URI schema name. An example for the "policy-uri" usage is inclusion of the URI of the CPCP [11]. A subscriber to the Conference package can use the Policy URI to access and modify the conference policy. 4.2 Constructing Coherent State The conference information subscriber maintains a table for the list of users in the conference. The table contains a row for each user. Each row is indexed by a URI, present in the "uri" attribute of the "user" element. The contents of each row contain the state of that user as conveyed in the document. Rosenberg, et al. Expires August 15, 2004 [Page 11] Internet-Draft Conference Package February 2004 The table is associated with a version number. The version number MUST be initialized with the value of the "version" attribute from the "conference-info" element in the first document received. Each time a new document is received, the value of the local version number, and the "version" attribute in the new document, are compared. If the value in the new document is one higher than the local version number, the local version number is increased by one, and the document is processed. If the value in the document is more than one higher than the local version number, the local version number is set to the value in the new document, the document is processed, and the subscriber SHOULD generate a refresh request to trigger a full state notification. If the value in the document is less than the local version, the document is discarded without processing. The processing of the conference information document depends on whether it contains full or partial state. If it contains full state, indicated by the value of the "state" attribute in the "conference-info" element, the contents of the table is flushed. It is repopulated from the document. A new row in the user table is created for each "user" element. If the document contains partial state, as indicated by the value of the "state" attribute in the "conference-info" element, the document is used to update the table. For each "user" element in the document, the subscriber checks to see whether a row exists for that user in the user table. This check is done by comparing the URI in the "uri" attribute of the "user" element with the URI associated with the row. If the user doesn't exist in the table, a row is added, and its state is set to the information from that "user" element. If the user does exist, its state is updated to be the information from that "user" element. If a row is updated or created, such that its state is now disconnected, booted, failed or departed, that entry MAY be removed from the table at any time. 4.3 Schema Rosenberg, et al.

For this reason, the document recommends authentication and authorization, and provides guidelines on sensible authorization policies. Since the data in notifications is sensitive as well, end-to-end SIP encryption mechanisms using S/MIME SHOULD be used to protect it. Rosenberg, et al.
