SIP 100 Trying vs 501 Not Implemented
SIP 100 (Trying) is a 1xx Provisional response, while 501 (Not Implemented) is a 5xx Server Failure response. 100 indicates that the request has been received by the next-hop server and an unspecified action is being taken to process it. The UAC should expect additional responses. In contrast, 501 means that the server does not support the functionality required to fulfill the request. The method is recognized but not implemented.
