SIP 200 OK vs 604 Does Not Exist Anywhere
SIP 200 (OK) is a 2xx Success response, while 604 (Does Not Exist Anywhere) is a 6xx Global Failure response. 200 indicates that the request has succeeded. For INVITE, the call has been answered. For other methods, the action has been completed successfully. In contrast, 604 means that the server has authoritative information that the user indicated in the Request-URI does not exist anywhere. Unlike 404, this is a definitive, global statement.
