  • Uses the Vovida Software License v1.0 (Vovida) (BSD like)
  • UDP, TCP, TLS transports (DTLS almost complete)
  • Easy to plug in new transport protocols
  • A full implementation of the 3261 transaction state machine
  • A lazy parser - only parse headers when the application requests them
  • The parser is compliant with the current RFCs
  • A strongly typed interface
  • An Object-Oriented SDP parser and encoder
  • Support for SipFrag
  • Support for 'rport'
  • Object Oriented C++ interface to the messages
  • Asynchronous DNS library (ares from MIT)
  • Full asynchronous DNS support in Windows
  • Full NAPTR and SRV support (support RFCs: 3261, 3263, 2915, 2782)
  • Fast performance: > ~500 transactions per second on an Intelâ„¢ P4
  • Ability to add new header fields and parameters without rebuilding the stack
  • MIME and multipart-MIME contents
  • S/MIME
  • Single-threaded or multi-threaded (thread-safe stack)
  • One library with only two external dependencies
    • ares - DNS Resolver
    • openssl - Security (for TLS)
  • ENUM support
  • STUN Server Support
  • Multiple SIP stacks in the same application
  • Support for shutting down a SIP stack without exiting the application
  • IPv6 support in the parser and DNS
  • Support for multi-homed hosts
  • Builds and runs on Windows and most Unixes. ReSIProcate has been built and tested on:
    • GNU/Linux 2.4, 2.5
    • Mac OS/X 10.2 (Jaguar) and 10.3 (Panther)
    • Solaris 8 and 9
    • Windows XP and 2003 Server
    • (most things with modern C++ compilers)
  • Dialog Usage Manager (DUM) layer for UAs

Partially Supported RFCs

  • RFC 3264: An Offer/Answer Model with the Session Description Protocol (SDP) (This is only partially supported, since many of the responsibilities are up to the app)

  • RFC 3323: A Privacy Mechanism for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) (The Privacy header field is supported. Server logic is not provided, but endpoint logic is.)
  • RFC 3327: Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Extension Header Field for Registering Non-Adjacent Contacts (Only the Path header field is supported. No logic is provided. This will change when the outbound implementation is merged in.)
  • RFC 3329: Security Mechanism Agreement for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) (Only the Security-Client, Security-Server, and Security-Verify header fields are supported, the proxy mechanisms are not.)
  • RFC 3388: Grouping of Media Lines in the Session Description Protocol (SDP) (trivial support; apps have access to group attributes, but groups are not handled for the app)
