Abstract
A method and apparatus for providing a communication history of a terminal in a Session Initiation Protocol/Internet Protocol (SIP/IP) core network. When a user having a plurality of terminals sends a subscribe request for a communication history of the terminals to a server, the server transmits all communication history information associated with the plurality of terminals to any one of the terminals each time the communication histories associated with the terminals are newly registered. The terminal, which has received the communication history information, can request and receive presence information of a corresponding terminal, which is included in the communication history information, if needed.
