Abstract
The number of SIP-based services provided by network service providers (NSPs) is increasing. SIP allows NSPs to control services and to collect the information relating to charging for the usage of their customer communications. Monitoring SIP messages (exchanged between SIP proxy servers and user terminals) is vital for providing the stable SIP-based services. Monitoring SIP messages enables NSPs to quickly discover a fault location where SIP messages are lost, and to determine the subsequent recovery solutions. This paper proposes a lightweight method for determining the location of SIP message loss through relationships based on the SIP's retransmission mechanism. Numerical analyses show that the proposed method can locate the lossy links of SIP messages with a low probability of detection failure.
