<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='intro'>
<p>The &xep0166; extensions to XMPP provide a technology for setup, management, and teardown of multimedia sessions between two entities, with an initial focus on voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). By design, Jingle has been kept relatively simple and it does not cover the kind of advanced features that are available on the public switched telephone network (PSTN) and traditional private branch exchange (PBX) systems. However, because Jingle and XMPP itself provide an extensible technology for the real-time exchange of XML data, more advanced use cases can be defined through additional extensions. This document specifies one such extension, for the transfer of a session from one entity to another entity; although this extension will likely be used mainly in the context of VoIP interactions, it could also be used for any Jingle application type, such as video chat or screen sharing.</p>

<p>The protocol flow is shown below, where the caller is "caller@world.sun", the attendant is "attendant@office.biz", and the callee is "boss@bigdesk.biz".</p>
<p>First the caller initiates a normal call to the attendant.</p>

<p>The attendant's phone then acknowledges the session request.</p>

<p>Now the attendant decides to transfer the call. It does this by sending a Jingle action of type session-info to the caller, specifying the address of the callee via an &lt;transfer/&gt; element qualified by the "urn:xmpp:jingle:transfer:0" namespace &VNOTE;.</p>

<p>If the caller understands the transfer request, it acknowledges the request (if not, it MUST return a &feature; error as specified in <cite>XEP-0166</cite>).</p>

<p>In order for an application to determine whether an entity supports this protocol, where possible it SHOULD use the dynamic, presence-based profile of service discovery defined in &xep0115;.
