Recent Changes• More general event name: perfrpt

– Parameters in event reflect voice quality metrics– Event can be extended for general performance reporting– Mime type also changed

• Syntax additions and clean up– More identification parameters, such as session 5-tuple, call identifier– Timestamps for start and end – allow for interval, mid-session, and end of session

reporting– More threshold types; extensions are also explicitly permitted– Enhanced readability with more descriptive parameters

• More call flows– SUBSCRIBE/NOTIFY and PUBLISH flows for both threshold and end of session

reports – Message formats for each flow

• Finalized details on use of PUBLISH and event state– Neither party maintains a soft or hard state– Intention, like other PUBLISH services, is to reduce messaging
