What should be the SIP Gateway response to the SIP network for early ACM ?

Early ACM received:

This message is sent in certain situations for resetting the timers.In these cases this message indicates that the call is in progress
but callee is not being alerted. This occurs for example in mobile networks, where roaming can take a long time. The early ACM is sent before the user is alerted to reset T7 and start T9.

An ACM is considered an `early ACM' if the Called Party's Status Indicator is set to 00 (no indication).

After receiving an early ACM the progress of the call is indicated by the network sending CPGs. When there is interworking with some old systems, it is possible to receive an ANM immediately after an early ACM (without CPG). In this situation the SIP user will not hear any kind of ringback tone before the callee answers. In ISDN [11] this is solved by connecting the
voice path backwards before sending the IAM.

The MGC sends a 183 Session Progress to the SIP network with media description inside. In SIP bridging situations the early ACM is included in the response body. Thus, the problem of missing the ring back tone is solved and the early ACM is transported transparently through the SIP network.

When an early ACM is received the gateway SHOULD send a 183 Session. Progress response to the SIP network. In SIP bridging situations (where encapsulated ISUP was contained in the INVITE that initiated this call) the early ACM SHOULD also is included in the response body.
Note that sending 183 before a gateway has confirmation that the address is complete (ACM) creates known problems in SIP bridging cases, and it SHOULD NOT therefore be sent.
