[Freeswitch-users] Another FreeSWITCH First!

[Anthony Minessale]

The FreeSWITCH team is excited to announce that FreeSWITCH is the first
telephony application to support the new SIP 4.1 protocol specification.

Unlike its predecessors, SIP 4.1 has been created with the collaboration of
both the jabber foundation and the IETF.  With this match made in heaven,
one can now encapsulate an xml representation of a sip message, which in
turn can encapsulate a standard SIP 2.0 message making it possible to do
more than ever before.
Other exciting features include:

*) RFC 4109 support: (SIP over SMTP), allowing packets to traverse NAT with
ease.

*) Full circle presence: endpoints must subscribe to each character in the
printable ASCII range that may be used to indicate presence and the server
will send an xml notification to the client for each character that is
enabled whenever a call takes place which in turn can be used to build a SIP
4.1 FYI packet that can be sent to all the neighboring SIP devices so they
may send themselves a NOTIFY telling them that the light should blink if the
same packet happens to be sent from a neighbor.  Then when the neighbor
wants to send a presence packet it establishes a dialog with the Third Party
Presence Agent TPPA and leaves the message there.  Then it sends the server
a PRESENCE packet, which is then, relayed to the subscribers with the TPPA
id so all the subscribers can connect to the TPPA server to make the little
light blink.

*) Retirement of SDP:  SDP is deprecated in favor of a list of URL’s
describing the desired codec.  The UA can then request this URL and get the
full details of the media requirements.  The media port is negotiated
through trial and error where the calling UA asks the called UA if the port
it has guessed randomly is correct via direct TCP connection and an exchange
of XML PORT MARKUP LANGUGE XPML
