Abstract
This document describes how to create subscriptions to
request-contained resource lists in SIP. This is done by having the
SUBSCRIBE request that requests the creation of the subscription
carry a URI list.

Internet-Draft SUBSCRIBE-Contained Lists June 2004
1. Introduction
Subscriptions to homogeneous resource lists in SIP [2] are described
in [3], which assumes that a resource list (i.e., a list of URIs) is
represented by a URI (generally a SIP URI). Once a UA obtains the URI
that represents a resource list, it can use the mechanisms described
in [3] to subscribe to it.
For example, let us assume that the resource list identified by the
SIP URI sip:my-friends@example.com contains the following URIs:
sip:bill@example.com
sip:joe@example.org
sip:ted@example.net
If a UA subscribes to the presece information of
sip:my-friends@example.com, it will obtain the presence information
of all the resources in the list.
List creation is outside the scope of [3]. This document describes a
way to create a list with a set of resources, and subscribe to it,
using a single SIP request. We use the mechanism to carry URI lists
in SIP messages described in [4].
2. Terminology
In this document, the key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED",
"SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT
RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" are to be interpreted as
described in BCP 14, RFC 2119 [1] and indicate requirement levels for
compliant implementations.
3. Providing a Resource List Server with a URI List
A client that wants to create a resource list and subscribe to it
using the mechanism described in this document generates a SUBSCRIBE
with a body whose disposition type is uri-list as defined in [4].
This body contains the URIs that belong to the resource list. The
client MUST build the remaining of the SUBSCRIBE request following
the rules in [3].
4. URI List Format
As described in [4], the default format for URI lists in SIP is the
XCAP resource list format [6]. Still, specific services need to
describe which information clients should include in their URI lists,
as described in [4].
Camarillo & Roach Expires November 30, 2004 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft SUBSCRIBE-Contained Lists June 2004
UAs subscribing to a request-contained resource list SHOULD use flat
lists (i.e., no hierarchical lists), SHOULD NOT use any entry's
attributes but "uri", and SHOULD NOT include any elements inside
entries but "display-name" elements.
Resource list servers receiving a URI list with more information than
what we have just described SHOULD discard all the extra information.
5. Resource List Server Behavior
On reception of a SUBSCRIBE with a URI list as described in Section
3, a resource list server MUST follow the rules described in [3] to
create the subscription, using the URI list just received as the
resource list for the subscription.
Once the resource list server has created the subscription, it
behaves as a regular resource list server and MUST follow the rules
in [3].
Note that the status code in the response to the SUBSCRIBE does not
provide any information about whether or not the resource list server
was able to succesfully subscribe to the URIs in the URI list. The
client obtains this information in the NOTIFIES sent by the server.
6. Resource List Life-Time
The life-time of a resource list created as described in Section 5 is
blundled to the life-time of the subscription. That is, the resource
list SHOULD be destroyed when the subscription expires or is
otherwise terminated.
7. Providing a URI to Manipulate a Resource List
A client may need to manipulate a resource list at a resource list
server. The resource list server MAY provide a URI to manipulate the
resource list associated with a subscription using the Call-Info
header field in the NOTIFY that establishes the subscription. The
"purpose" parameter of the Call-Info header field MUST have a value
of "list-management", which we register with the IANA in Section 10.
The following is an example of such a header field.
Call-Info: <http://xcap.example.com/your-list.xml>
;purpose=list-management

8. Example
The following is an example of a SUBSCRIBE request, which carries a
URI list in its body, sent by a UA to a resource list server.
SUBSCRIBE sip:rls@example.com SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/TCP terminal.example.com;branch=z9hG4bKwYb6QREiCL
Max-Forwards: 70
To: RLS <sip:rls@example.com>

CSeq: 1 SUBSCRIBE

</list>
</resource-lists>

9. Security Considerations
The Security Considerations Section of [3] discusses security issues
related to resource list servers. Resource list servers accepting
request-contained URI-lists MUST also follow the security guidelines
given in [3].
The Security Considerations Section of the Requirements and Framework
for SIP URI-List Services [5] discusses issues related to SIP
URI-list services. Given that a resource list server sending
Camarillo & Roach Expires November 30, 2004 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft SUBSCRIBE-Contained Lists June 2004
SUBSCRIBEs to a set of users acts as a URI-list service,
implementations of resource list servers that handle
request-contained URI-lists MUST follow the security-related rules in
[5]. These rules include mandatory authentication and authorization
of clients, and opt-in lists.
10. IANA Considerations
The document defines the "list-management" value for the purpose
parameter of the Call-Info header field. A reference to this RFC
should be added to the purpose Call-Info parameter entry in the SIP
header field parameter registry on:
http://www.iana.org/assignments/sip-parameters
