Abstract
Processing mid-dialog SIP messages by receiving a mid-dialog SIP message from a SIP user agent client, creating a new SIP session, associating the new SIP session with the mid-dialog SIP message, identifying an application that is associated with the mid-dialog SIP message, providing to the application the mid-dialog SIP message in the context of the new SIP session, receiving an acknowledgement from the application that the application will accept the mid-dialog SIP message, and responsive to receiving the acknowledgement, providing to the application the mid-dialog SIP message in the context of the new SIP session.

A method for processing mid-dialog SIP messages, comprising:
- receiving, from a SIP user agent client, a mid-dialog SIP message;
- creating, based upon the mid-dialog SIP message, a new SIP session, and
- associating the new SIP session with the mid-dialog SIP message.
A computer hardware system configured to process mid-dialog SIP messages, comprising:
- at least one hardware processor, wherein the at least on hardware processor is configured to initiate and/or perform:
- receiving, from a SIP user agent client, a mid-dialog SIP message;
- creating, based upon the mid-dialog SIP message, a new SIP session, and
- associating the new SIP session with the mid-dialog SIP message.
A computer program product, comprising:
- a computer readable storage medium having stored therein computer readable program code configured to process mid-dialog SIP messages,
- the computer readable program code, which when executed by a computer hardware system, causes the computer hardware system to perform:
- receiving, from a SIP user agent client, a mid-dialog SIP message;
- creating, based upon the mid-dialog SIP message, a new SIP session, and
- associating the new SIP session with the mid-dialog SIP message.
