A subscription in the SIP protocol is saying "Hey, I'd like to be
notified when something happens."  This is most often used when a phone
wants to subscribe to the state of another extension, or to the status
of a voicemail box.

A registration is where one SIP device tells another "Hey, I'm over
here.  If you get any calls for me, send them to me at this IP address
and port."
