Automated SIP OPTIONS requests used to validate reachable VoIP endpoints and enumerate service capabilities without initiating a call session. The client sends standalone OPTIONS probes with high-entropy or unusually long Call-ID values, a pattern commonly associated with scripted scanning frameworks or VoIP reconnaissance tooling.
