[sr-dev] How to uniquely identify SIP WS / WSS endpoint

[Muhammad Shahzad]

Sorry for putting this question on both dev and user mailing lists, as it
is a rather theoretical question and i hope some SIP guru on either mail
list will answer.

For non-WS endpoints which use TCP or UDP for SIP transport, each upstream
request has top most VIA header pointing to the previous hop which
forwarded the request to current hop while each downstream request has top
most VIA header pointing to next hop to which it will be forwarded from
current hop.

But for WS endpoints, the top most VIA has dummy static value, so there is
no way to identify who sent this request or to whom the reply is going to.

Please note that i am not specifically interested in network address of
remote endpoint (though VIA header is suppose to provide it), i only need
to match requests and responses from / to a specific device using SIP v2.0
standard.

Any help is highly appreciated.

Thank you.
