`
`This is right, although it does not mean that each call attempt must use a
`new call-id.You wrote that "We have customer UAs that are reusing the same
`Sip Call-Id for multiple call attempts into our network.", if by attempt,
`you mean trying to make a call that fails with a error that can be retried
`(as 407, 422) then in that case, it is acceptable to use the same call-id (
`with an incremented C-Seq and empty to-tag)

` SIP call-id should be unique for each call, it cannot be re-used

` 8.1.1.4 Call-ID
` The Call-ID header field acts as a unique identifier to group
` together a series of messages. It MUST be the same for all requests
` and responses sent by either UA in a dialog. It SHOULD be the same
` in each registration from a UA.
` In a new request created by a UAC outside of any dialog, the Call-ID
` header field MUST be selected by the UAC as a globally unique
` identifier over space and time unless overridden by method-specific
` behavior. All SIP UAs must have a means to guarantee that the Call-
` ID header fields they produce will not be inadvertently generated by
` any other UA. Note that when requests are retried after certain
