Event-Type AVP

The Event-Type AVP (AVP code 823) is a Grouped AVP and contains information about the type of chargeable telecommunication service/event for which the accounting-request and/or credit control request message(s) is generated.

It is used in an AAR Event record. In this context, refer to the following:

AVP Number Acme # Definition
[ SIP-Method ] 824 173 Contains the name of the SIP Method. Values include REGISTER or MESSAGE (for SMS).

These generate an accounting request to the CCF.

[ Event ] 825 245 Holds the content of the "Event:" header.

This is not present in a REGISTER or re-REGISTER message

[ Expires ] 888 246 Holds the content of the "Expires" header.

Upon a re-REGISTER this value is the time remaining until the endpoint’s registration expires.

The SBC generates additional information for SMS and distributes the information within the SIP-Method grouped AVP.
