Call Flow Scenarios for Successful Calls
Step Action Description
1. INVITE—Cisco SIP IP phone A
to SIP proxy server
Cisco SIP IP phone A sends a SIP INVITE request to the SIP proxy server. The
INVITE request is an invitation to User B to participate in a call session.
In the INVITE request:
• The phone number of User B is inserted in the Request-URI field in the form
of a SIP URL. The SIP URL identifies the address of User B and takes a form
similar to an e-mail address (user@host , where user is the telephone number
and host is either a domain name or a numeric network address). For
example, the Request-URI field in the INVITE request to User B appears as
“INVITE sip:555-0002@companyb.com; user=phone.” The “user=phone”
parameter distinquishes that the Request-URI address is a telephone number
rather than a username.
• Cisco SIP IP phone A is identified as the call session initiator in the From
field.

Call-ID field.

field.
