Sip monitoring and control anchor points

摘要

The concept of anchor points is introduced. Anchor points, and specifically Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) anchor points, serve as a media and call control point that is established on a per-user basis which can then be shared by any application. The use of an anchor point allows for applications to become aware of and control a communication late or cease monitoring and controlling a communication session early without disrupting the session or introducing a significant amount of control or media delay.
