Functional Description of Event Notification Filtering
RFC 4660, “Functional Description of Event Notification Filtering”, is a Proposed Standard document published in September 2006 by H. Khartabil, E. Leppanen, M. Lonnfors, J. Costa-Requena. It has since been updated by RFC 6665. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The SIP event notification framework describes the usage of the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for subscriptions and notifications of changes to the state of a resource. The document does not describe a mechanism whereby filtering of event notification information can be achieved.
This document describes the operations a subscriber performs in order to put filtering rules associated with a subscription to event notification information in place. The handling, by the subscriber, of responses to subscriptions carrying filtering rules and the handling of notifications with filtering rules applied to them are also described. Furthermore, the document conveys how the notifier behaves when receiving such filtering rules and how a notification is constructed. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
