RFC 9796: SIP Call-Info Parameters for Rich Call Data
Recent RFCs 2025-07-11
Summary:
This document specifies a usage of the SIP Call-Info header field
that incorporates Rich Call Data (RCD) associated with the identity
of the originating party in order to provide to the terminating party
a description of the caller (including details about the reason for
the session). RCD includes information about the caller beyond the
telephone number (such as a calling name, logo, photo, or jCard
object representing the caller), which can help the called party
decide how to handle the session request.
This document defines three new parameters 'call-reason', 'verified',
and 'integrity' for the SIP Call-Info header field and also a new
token ("jcard") for the 'purpose' parameter of the Call-Info header
field. It also provides guidance on the use of the Call-Info
'purpose' parameter token, "icon".
