Abstract :
SIP-based instant messaging (IM) is currently a quite hot issue in the SIP world. Two approaches, pager-mode IM and session-mode IM, have been explored for implementation. This paper provides an in-depth analysis of the first method through an example, and makes improvement to the second by presenting specific signaling and media messages. Solutions to security problems are also discussed in detail for the two methods, respectively.
