SIP 204 (No Notification) is a 2xx Success response, while 408 (Request Timeout) is a 4xx Client 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, 408 means that the server could not produce a response within a suitable time. The client may repeat the request without modifications at any later time.
