The call-id is supposed to be unique across a complete session i.e.
INVITE/RINGING/OK/ACK/BYE. If it wasn't then there would be no way to
relate the messages as part of the same sequence/call.

Subject: [Serusers] From-Tag/Call-id not uniq?
Hi,
according to the RFC:
"When a tag is generated by a UA for insertion into a request or
response, it MUST be globally unique and cryptographically random
with at least 32 bits of randomness."
But when looking at a sip logfile:
egrep "^From:.*;tag=9d49295bb825210f" /var/log/term.log | wc -l
503
Question: Did i understood something wrong or is the recoccurance of
the same tag-id and callid in different sessions voilating the rfc?
Ive found loads of non-uniq call-ids as well as non uniq tags. How
is a man supposed to make accounting (besides accounting on the PSTN
GW/Voice Switch) when those to identifiers are not globally uniq?
So far ive seen non uniq callids from Grandstream Products
and non uniq
tags from sipura adapters.
