[asterisk-bugs] [JIRA] (ASTERISK-13145) [patch] Presence subscription on Cisco SIP phone needs special Cisco-styled XML

[Marcello Ceschia (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-13145?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=217452#comment-217452 ] 

Marcello Ceschia commented on ASTERISK-13145:
---------------------------------------------

The question is not does the phone have proprietary code or not. Many other manufactures do also have closed source firmware, e.g. Digium Phones.
Asterisk do also support the skinny protocol, that is totally proprietary and not an open standard and nearly all extension for the cisco sip protocol you can find on the cisco page. 
So it is not a question of proprietary code, its a political question.

> Who should test all those features?
The same community that tests the new chan_pjsip or all other changes.

> Cisco phones appear to be unable to parse the existing PIDF XML being generated by Asterisk for presence notification.  I've attached a patch which produces well-formed (but incomplete) XML which will satisfy a Cisco phone.  The patch as supplied will successfully render a "busy" subscription, but does not send a subsequent "available" notification, so presence detection only half works currently.
> I suspect the next step might be to watch some CallManager SIP traffic to identify precisely what XML tags the phone is expecting in order to properly parse an available subscription, but I'm not in a position to do that.  I'll continue to work with this, though, and perhaps may be able to stumble upon the precise data the Cisco phone is looking for.
> {{****** ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ******}}
> I believe that this requires the Cisco phones be configured to use SIP TCP when connecting to Asterisk.
