RFC 4412: Communications Resource Priority for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)

Still current, but amended. Parts of this document are changed or extended by RFC 7134. Read both.

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

This document defines two new Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) header fields for communicating resource priority, namely, "Resource-Priority" and "Accept-Resource-Priority". The "Resource-Priority" header field can influence the behavior of SIP user agents (such as telephone gateways and IP telephones) and SIP proxies. It does not directly influence the forwarding behavior of IP routers. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
