Abstract

Multiple timers used by a device during setup of a communication session may include a first timer and a second timer, each configured to expire after different periods of time, and each configured to start in response to the device sending a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) request using a SIP INVITE method. The first timer is stopped on receipt of the first SIP response, which may include a 100. Trying SIP response, while the second timer is stopped on receipt of a non-100 Trying SIP response. If the first timer expires, the device may send an additional SIP request using the SIP INVITE method as a retry mechanism while the second timer continues to run. If the second timer expires, the device may halt the session setup and reattempt using a different type of access network.
