The OC-Access-Transfer-Procedure Header header is a custom SIP header used by Sentinel VoLTE SCC-AS to coordinate access transfer procedures across multiple nodes. This header is inserted into handover INVITE requests and special internal MESSAGE requests when they are forwarded between Sentinel VoLTE SCC-AS nodes. It is also inserted into handover INVITE requests when they are forwarded into an existing session on the same node. The header indicates to the receiving session which access transfer procedures it should execute.

Header Format

The header name is OC-Access-Transfer-Procedure and its value is a simple string with no special formatting. The header does not have any special parameters. Possible values are described below.

Example:

OC-Access-Transfer-Procedure: Remove-Superfluous

Header Usage

The header is used extensively by the Packet Switched to Circuit Switched Access Transfer Features. See the individual feature pages for specifics on where it is set and used.

It is also used by the SCCDetermineSessionType feature.

A call flow diagram showing its use is available on the Shared ATU-STI page.
