The Status-Code is a 3-digit integer result code that indicates the outcome of the attempt to understand and satisfy the request. The Reason-Phrase is intended to give a short textual description of the Status-Code. The Status-Code is intended for use by automata, whereas the Reason-Phrase is intended for the human user. The client is not required to examine or display the Reason-Phrase.



Status-Code = Informational ;Fig. 5
| Success ;Fig. 5
| Redirection ;Fig. 6
| Client-Error ;Fig. 7
| Server-Error ;Fig. 8
| Global-Failure ;Fig. 9
| extension-code
extension-code = 3DIGIT
Reason-Phrase = *


We provide an overview of the Status-Code below, and provide full definitions in Section 7. The first digit of the Status-Code defines the class of response. The last two digits do not have any categorization role. SIP/2.0 allows 6 values for the first digit:

1xx: Informational -- request received, continuing to process the
request;

2xx: Success -- the action was successfully received, understood, and
accepted;

3xx: Redirection -- further action needs to be taken in order to
complete the request;

4xx: Client Error -- the request contains bad syntax or cannot be
fulfilled at this server;

5xx: Server Error -- the server failed to fulfill an apparently valid
request;

6xx: Global Failure -- the request cannot be fulfilled at any server.

Figures 5 through 9 present the individual values of the numeric response codes, and an example set of corresponding reason phrases for SIP/2.0. These reason phrases are only recommended; they may be replaced by local equivalents without affecting the protocol. Note that SIP adopts many HTTP/1.1 response codes. SIP/2.0 adds response codes in the range starting at x80 to avoid conflicts with newly defined HTTP response codes, and adds a new class, 6xx, of response codes.

SIP response codes are extensible. SIP applications are not required to understand the meaning of all registered response codes, though such understanding is obviously desirable. However, applications MUST understand the class of any response code, as indicated by the first digit, and treat any unrecognized response as being equivalent to the x00 response code of that class, with the exception that an unrecognized response MUST NOT be cached. For example, if a client receives an unrecognized response code of 431, it can safely assume that there was something wrong with its request and treat the response as if it had received a 400 (Bad Request) response code. In such cases, user agents SHOULD present to the user the message body returned with the response, since that message body is likely to include human-readable information which will explain the unusual status.

Informational = "100" ; Trying
| "180" ; Ringing
| "181" ; Call Is Being Forwarded
| "182" ; Queued
Success = "200" ; OK


Redirection = "300" ; Multiple Choices
| "301" ; Moved Permanently
| "302" ; Moved Temporarily
| "303" ; See Other
| "305" ; Use Proxy
| "380" ; Alternative Service


Client-Error = "400" ; Bad Request
| "401" ; Unauthorized
| "402" ; Payment Required
| "403" ; Forbidden
| "404" ; Not Found
| "405" ; Method Not Allowed
| "406" ; Not Acceptable
| "407" ; Proxy Authentication Required
| "408" ; Request Timeout
| "409" ; Conflict
| "410" ; Gone
| "411" ; Length Required
| "413" ; Request Entity Too Large
| "414" ; Request-URI Too Large
| "415" ; Unsupported Media Type
| "420" ; Bad Extension
| "480" ; Temporarily not available
| "481" ; Call Leg/Transaction Does Not Exist
| "482" ; Loop Detected
| "483" ; Too Many Hops
| "484" ; Address Incomplete
| "485" ; Ambiguous
| "486" ; Busy Here



Server-Error = "500" ; Internal Server Error
| "501" ; Not Implemented
| "502" ; Bad Gateway
| "503" ; Service Unavailable
| "504" ; Gateway Time-out
| "505" ; SIP Version not supported
