The system and method allow enhanced capabilities for Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) dialogs (communication sessions) between SIP devices. The SIP dialogs have applications that are inserted into the SIP dialog such as a Back-to-Back User Agent (B2BUA) or a proxy application. After the initial dialog is established and these applications fail or become unavailable, the system and method allow the applications to be bypassed or have the SIP dialog redirected to an alternative application. This provides a better user experience because the SIP dialog (e.g., a SIP telephone call) will not be dropped if the application fails mid-dialog. |
