A Session Initiation Protocol Load-Control Event Package
RFC 7200, “A Session Initiation Protocol Load-Control Event Package”, is a Proposed Standard document published in April 2014 by C. Shen, H. Schulzrinne, A. Koike. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This specification defines a load-control event package for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). It allows SIP entities to distribute load-filtering policies to other SIP entities in the network. The load-filtering policies contain rules to throttle calls from a specific user or based on their source or destination domain, telephone number prefix. The mechanism helps to prevent signaling overload and complements feedback-based SIP overload control efforts.
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.
