Use Cases and Requirements for SIP-Based Media Recording

Overview

RFC 6341, “Use Cases and Requirements for SIP-Based Media Recording”, is an Informational document published in August 2011 by K. Rehor, L. Portman, A. Hutton, R. Jain. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

Session recording is a critical requirement in many business communications environments, such as call centers and financial trading floors. In some of these environments, all calls must be recorded for regulatory and compliance reasons. In others, calls may be recorded for quality control or business analytics.

Recording is typically performed by sending a copy of the session media to the recording devices. This document specifies requirements for extensions to SIP that will manage delivery of RTP media to a recording device. This is being referred to as SIP-based Media Recording. This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational purposes.
