    Home appliances have evolved from being single task devices to integrating several tasks in a particular device. The next step for home appliances is to transform into networked appliances and accelerate the development of home automation. This research had the objective of adding a new method, called DO, to the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) in order to control these networked appliances. Considering that SIP methods are self explanatory, the name of this new method does not deviate from this convention. DO is a verb that means to carry out or perform an action and this is exactly what the method represents. Once the method was added to a SIP stack, it was tested by sending a DO request to a SIP User Agent representing a networked appliance. The results for these tests were the same as the expected; the SIP User Agent executed the action that was requested from it in the DO message, thus fulfilling the research objective.
