SIP uses six request methods: 
  INVITE—Indicates a user is being invited to participate in a call session. 
  ACK—Confirms that the client has received a final response to an INVITE request. 
  BYE—Terminates a call and can be sent by either the caller or the callee. 
  CANCEL—Cancels any pending searches but does not terminate a call that has 
already been accepted. 
  OPTIONS—Queries the capabilities of servers. 
  REGISTER—Registers the address listed in the To header field with a SIP server. 
The following types of responses are used by SIP and generated by the IP phone or the 
SIP server: 
  SIP 1xx—Informational Responses 
  SIP 2xx—Successful Responses 
  SIP 3xx—Redirection Responses 
  SIP 4xx—Client Failure Responses 
  SIP 5xx—Server Failure Responses 
  SIP 6xx—Global Failure Responses
