SIP 199 Early Dialog Terminated vs 433 Anonymity Disallowed

SIP 199 (Early Dialog Terminated) is a 1xx Provisional response, while 433 (Anonymity Disallowed) is a 4xx Client Failure response. 199 indicates that a UAS can send this to indicate that an early dialog has been terminated. Used when forking results in multiple early dialogs. In contrast, 433 means that the request has been rejected because the server policy requires caller identification and the request was anonymous.
