SIP Authentication is a stateless challenge-based mechanism which ensures user's identity. Authentication challenge can be asked commonly for Invite and Bye methods. This means that anyone receiving an INVITE message can force the sender to prove his or her identity before the message is processed. In fact, SIP authentication is not limited to these two messages type. Any SIP method (the proper name for a SIP message) can be challenged by the recipient.
