JAIN SLEE with JAIN SIP Resource | JavaOne 2003 | Session # JAIN SLEE with JAIN SIP Resource JAIN SLEE represents network resources as resource adaptors and each resource adaptor has a type Resource adaptor type for JAIN SIP is ‘javax.sip’ JAIN SLEE identifies Event by Event types JAIN SIP Events are classified RequestEvents, ResponseEvents and TimeoutEvents, each of these classifications contains numerous types For example the event type of a Request message of type ‘INVITE’ is ‘javax.sip.RequestEvent.Request.INVITE’ JAIN SLEE represents the flow of events as activities Activity Objects in JAIN SIP are ClientTransactions (locally initiated) and ServerTransactions (remotely initiated) | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
| JavaOne 2003 | Session # SIP Servlet SIP servlets typically reside on network servers where they will be responsible for making routing decisions. Supports RFC3261, RFC3262, RFC3265, RFC3428, and RFC2976 Utilizes http servlet model as foundation, builds on http generic part for essential SIP request and response functionality Allow applications to perform a fairly complete set of SIP signaling actions User agent client (UAC) User agent server (UAS) Proxy server | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
SIP Servlet Goals Simplicity for the application developer | JavaOne 2003 | Session # SIP Servlet Goals Simplicity for the application developer Containers handle “non-essential” complexity such as managing network listening points, CSeq, Call-ID and Via headers, routes, etc. Containers support converged applications Applications that span multiple protocols and media types, for example, Web, telephony, and presence. Third party application development: An XML DD is used to communicate application information from the application developer to deployers. Application composition: Several applications can execute on the same incoming or outgoing request or response. Each application has its own set of rules and executes independently. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
Extension to HTTP Servlet Model | JavaOne 2003 | Session # Extension to HTTP Servlet Model HTTP is not a peer-to-peer protocol like SIP therefore SIP Servlet extensions include: Initiate requests Receive responses as well as requests Generate multiple Responses one or more 1xx followed by a final response Proxying requests, possibly to multiple destinations | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
Protocol and Application Sessions Sipservlet defines two types of sessions: SipSession (Protocol Session) Equivalent to HTTP Session and represents a Dialog in SIP SipApplicationSession Provides storage for application data Enable different protocol sessions to share state i.e. HTTP and SIP Defined by SIPServlet but is expected to be adopted by the Servlet specification in a future release. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024

| JavaOne 2003 | Session # Overview: SIP for J2ME SIP for J2ME is the standardised SIP interface for mobile handsets to communicate with core network functionality. SIP for J2ME is an optional package for the J2ME platform that enable resource limited devices to send and receive SIP messages The specific is designed for the CLDC profile, however it can also be used on to the CDC profile also. The specification gives the developer transactional control over the SIP protocol Client devices must support SIP for Rel5.0 of the UMTS architecture. SIP for J2ME is the perfect platform for these client devices. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
SIP for J2ME Goals Enables terminals supporting CLDC to run SIP enabled MIDlets Builds upon CLDC Generic Connection framework Specifically targeted at mobile phone handsets Keep the “look and feel” of the HTTP API Keep the API size small - keep the number of created objects low Provide developers with helper functions RefreshHelper for Register and Subscribe | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024

Overview: JAIN SIP Java-standard interface to a SIP signaling stack. Standardized the interface to the stack. Standardized the events and event semantics. Application portability - verified via the TCK. Designed for the developer who requires powerful access to the SIP protocol. JAIN SIP can be utilized in a user agent, proxy, or imbedded into a service container. Supported RFCs: RFC 3261, 2976, 3262, RFC 3265, 3311, 3428 | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
JAIN SIP Architecture Listener Listener SIP Messages SIP Events Application Listener Listener SIP Messages SIP Events SIP Messages SIP Events Provider Provider Listening Point Listening Point Stack Stack Network | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
Responsibilities of the Application Application registers an implementation of the SipListener interface to interact with the SIP Stack Application MUST go via the SipProvider for all messaging with the stack Application Sends messages and access stack objects via the SipProvider. Application receives messages from the stack as Events via the SipListener interface. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
Services provided by JAIN SIP Provide methods to format and send SIP messages Parse incoming messages and enable application to access to fields via a standardized JAVA interface. Invoke appropriate application handlers when protocol significant (message arrivals, Transaction time-outs) Provide Transaction support and manage Transaction state and lifetime on behalf of a user application. Provide Dialog support and manage Dialog state and lifetime on behalf on a user application. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
SIP Transactions UAC Stateful proxy UAS SIP transaction consists of a single request and any responses to that request. Server transaction Client transaction Server transaction Client transaction UAC Stateful proxy UAS | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
Transaction Support Transaction is created on incoming Request or may be created to send outgoing request. When a Request is sent out statefully, application must request a ClientTransaction for the outgoing Request. When a new Request arrives, Stack associates a ServerTransaction with Request and passes up to application. When a response arrives, the Stack possibly associates a previously created ClientTransaction with the response and passes up to the Application. The JAIN SIP implementation manages the association between Transactions and Dialogs. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
Support for Dialogs A Dialog is a peer to peer association between communicating SIP endpoints. Maintains Route Sets and Sequence Numbers. Dialogs are never directly created by the Application.. Dialogs are established by Dialog creating Transactions (INVITE, MESSAGE, SUBSCRIBE…), however are managed by the stack. Dialog deletion may be under application control. Transactions may belong to a Dialog Dialog state changes as a result of changes in Transaction State | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
Addresses, Messaging and Headers Defines support for Address/Header/Message Factories. Address package contains a URI wrapper and defines URIs for SIP and Tel URIs. Header package defines interfaces for all the supported headers. Accessor (set/get) methods for SIP Header parameters. Deep copy requirement for cloning Addresses, Headers and Messages for the benefit of proxies. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
SipStack Interface Manages Listening Points and Providers. SipStack associated with an IP address. Can Have multiple Listening points. Application can have multiple SipStacks. Cannot be deleted once created. Instantiated by the SipFactory and initialized with a Property set. javax.sip.* properties are reserved and names defined for stack configuration properties. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
SipProvider Interface Send Request's either statefully via client transactions or statelessly. Send Response's to a recently received Requests either statefully via server transactions or statelessly. Register a SipListener to the SipProvider. Notifies Registered Listener of Events (Request/Response/Timeout). De-register a SipListener from the SipProvider. Once de-registered, no longer receive Events from SipProvider. New Client and Server Transaction methods. Listening Point manipulation methods. Only one provider per listening point. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
SipListener Interface A single SipListener per SipStack which implies a single Listener in the architecture all SipProviders associated to a Sipstack have the same SipListener. Process Request's either statefully or statelessly dependent on application. Process Response's to a recently sent Requests statefully. Process Transaction timeouts and retransmits Timer events. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
Application - Stack Creation Initialize Stack using SipFactory: try { Properties properties = new Properties(); properties.setProperty("javax.sip.IP_ADDRESS", "129.6.55.181"); properties.setProperty("javax.sip.OUTBOUND_PROXY", "129.6.55.182:5070/UDP"); ……// Other initialization properties. sipStack = sipFactory.createSipStack(properties); } catch(SipException e) { System.exit(-1); } | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
Application – Request Creation Initialize Request using Factories: try { SipURI requestURI = addressFactory.createSipURI (toUser, toSipAddress); // … Create other headers Request request = messageFactory.createRequest (requestURI, Request.INVITE, callIdHeader, cSeqHeader, fromHeader, toHeader, viaHeaders, maxForwards); } | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
Application - Sending Requests Send outgoing messages: try { // Create the client transaction ClientTransaction inviteTid = sipProvider.getNewClientTransaction(request); // send the request sipProvider.sendRequest(inviteTid,request); } | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
Application – Processing Requests Handle incoming messages as Events: try { public void processRequest(RequestEvent requestEvent) { Request request = requestReceivedEvent.getRequest(); ServerTransaction st = requestEvent.getTransaction(); // do request specific processing here } | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
JAIN SIP for Instant Messaging JAIN SIP can be used for building Instant Messaging and Presence Clients and Servers. API supports the required methods and Headers. JAIN creates and manages Dialogs for SUBSCRIBE and MESSAGE methods. NIST-SIP JAIN IM Client SipListener is about 1100 LOC. Interoperates with Microsoft IM and packaged with RI as example. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
JAIN-SIP in Proxy Servers JAIN SIP facilities construction of Proxy Servers: Stateless, Transaction-stateful, and Dialog-stateful operation. Application has access to Dialog/Transaction state and route tables. Support for extensibility and application- controlled Routing. Deep copy semantics for cloning. Example Proxy (including presence server) is about 3500 LOC and is included with RI. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
JAIN SIP Extensibility SIP Extensions Typically Define: New Methods New Headers New Dialog Creating Methods JAIN SIP Supports these by: Architected ExtensionHeader that can be created/accessed by name. New Dialog Creating methods specified at Stack configuration via configuration property. | JavaOne 2003 | Session #1024
JAIN SIP Updates JAIN SIP v1.0 JAIN SIP v1.1 RFC2543 Supported. J2SE 1.3 and above. Transactions referenced by long. Transaction state is not visible to application. No explicit Dialog Support. Stack Configuration not defined. RFC3261 Supported. J2SE 1.4 and above. Transaction interfaces defined. Transaction/Dialog state can be read by application.
