SIP

183 Session Progress

Used to convey information about the progress of the call that is not otherwise classified. Often carries early media (ringback tones, announcements) via SDP.

When You See This Code

During call setup, especially in PSTN interworking scenarios. The response may contain SDP for early media like custom ringback tones or IVR prompts.

How to Fix

No fix needed — this is informational. If early media is not playing, check codec negotiation and SDP handling in your UA.
