SIP 204 No Notification vs 606 Not Acceptable
SIP 204 (No Notification) is a 2xx Success response, while 606 (Not Acceptable) is a 6xx Global Failure response. 204 indicates that the request was successful but the server has decided not to send a NOTIFY for this SUBSCRIBE request. In contrast, 606 means that the user's agent was contacted successfully but some aspects of the session description (SDP) are not acceptable. Unlike 488, this is a global failure — no other server can satisfy this request.
