Kamailio & Asterisk SIP Registration Forwarding - Asterisk replies 401 Unauthorized
by Ben Fitzgerald 17 Apr '26

17 Apr '26

Hi, I've been following this integration tutorial http://kb.asipto.com/asterisk:realtime:kamailio-4.0.x-asterisk-11.3.0-astdb and have a successful registration and I can even make calls through my asterisk box. However what is unusual to me is that every time a phone registers with Kamailio, that is forwarded to Asterisk (as expected), yet Asterisk replies with 401 Unauthorized. Oddly enough the phone registers and can still make calls. What worries me is that as we scale to 100's of cps, this seemingly erroneous message may slow down Asterisk because it's trying to handle authentication for users which have already been authenticated by Kamailio. If this behavior is expected, then that would be good to know as well. This is the sip debug from ASTERISK (I have replaced IP's with the names of the servers): <--- SIP read from TCP:kamailio:41205 ---> REGISTER sip:asteriskIP:5060;transport=tcp SIP/2.0 Via: SIP/2.0/TCP kamailio;branch=z9hG4bK998f.2846e405000000000000000000000000.0 To: <sip:40081@asteriskIP> From: <sip:40081@asteriskIP>;tag=32fda68bf54efeeb04e3edc67b53c63d-cfb0 CSeq: 10 REGISTER Call-ID: 0005ce130bcee5c4-26538@kamailio Max-Forwards: 70 Content-Length: 0 User-Agent: kamailio (4.3.0 (x86_64/linux)) Contact: <sip:40081@kamailio:5060> Expires: 3600 <-------------> --- (11 headers 0 lines) --- Sending to kamailio:5060 (no NAT) Sending to kamailio:5060 (no NAT) <--- Transmitting (no NAT) to kamailio:5060 ---> SIP/2.0 401 Unauthorized Via: SIP/2.0/TCP kamailio;branch=z9hG4bK998f.2846e405000000000000000000000000.0;received= kamailio From: <sip:40081@asteriskIP>;tag=32fda68bf54efeeb04e3edc67b53c63d-cfb0 To: <sip:40081@asteriskIP>;tag=as404bac9a Call-ID: 0005ce130bcee5c4-26538@ kamailio CSeq: 10 REGISTER Server: Asterisk PBX 11.6-cert2 Allow: INVITE, ACK, CANCEL, OPTIONS, BYE, REFER, SUBSCRIBE, NOTIFY, INFO, PUBLISH Supported: replaces, timer WWW-Authenticate: Digest algorithm=MD5, realm="asterisk", nonce="262b338e" Content-Length: 0 <------------> Scheduling destruction of SIP dialog '0005ce130bcee5c4-26538@ kamailio' in 32000 ms (Method: REGISTER) Scheduling destruction of SIP dialog '0005ce130bcee5c4-26538@ kamailio' in 32000 ms (Method: REGISTER) Really destroying SIP dialog '0005ce130bcee5c1-26536@ kamailio' Method: REGISTER ========================= sip.conf for kamailio trunk: [kamailio-inbound] type=friend dtmfmode=auto host=kamailioIP allow=all context=sipout insecure=port,invite canreinvite=no ======================== Asterisk version: 11.6-cert2 Kamailio version: 4.3 Benjamin Fitzgerald LETS Corporation (925) 235-1154 ben(a)letscorp.us *******Confidential Notice: This message is intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged, confidential and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.

Support for TLS server_name extension (aka SNI=server name indication)
by Barry Flanagan 04 Sep '25

04 Sep '25

Hi, Back in Kamailio 1.5, the release notes state: "support for TLS server_name extension (aka SNI=server name indication)" However, I cannot find any indication of this in the current TLS docs, and trying to set tls_server_name or server_name in tls.cfg fails with "unsupported option". Is this actually supported? Thanks. -Barry Flanagan

[4.2] how to send out BYE successfully to close a TCP/TLS connection which misses the connection ID?
by Jack Wang 02 Sep '25

02 Sep '25

For some reasons, My settings will cause kamailio to be restarted even if there were connections connected to it. And when one SIP client in a connection wanted to hangup the call with a WebRTC Client (SIP over websocket) after the proxy-restarting, local client was closed, however , the other side was not. >From the log below it seems that the connection missed. Jan 30 18:19:31 ./kamailio[27857]: WARNING: <core> [msg_translator.c:2777]: via_builder(): TCP/TLS connection (id: 0) for WebSocket could not be found Jan 30 18:19:31 ./kamailio[27857]: ERROR: tm [t_msgbuilder.c:1365]: assemble_via(): assemble_via: via building failed Jan 30 18:19:31 ./kamailio[27857]: ERROR: tm [t_msgbuilder.c:1545]: build_uac_req(): build_uac_req(): Error while assembling Via Jan 30 18:19:31 ./kamailio[27857]: ERROR: tm [uac.c:379]: t_uac_prepare(): t_uac: Error while building message So, Is it equivalent to connection ID missing? And is there any way to make Websocket found the connection? Btw, after proxy-restarting for seconds , I typed `sh kamctl stats` : websocket:ws_current_connections = 1 It showed that the WebRTC Client will re-connect automatically, So I think this connection could be found by proxy, Any suggestion? Thanks :)

$http_rs shows 401 even when final response is 201 (http_async_query + Basic Auth)
by Joel Serrano 13 Aug '25

13 Aug '25

Hi all, I'm seeing some unexpected behavior from $http_rs when using http_async_query() to send a POST request to an endpoint that requires Basic (username/password) authentication. When I use: ``` $http_req(username) = "someuser"; $http_req(password) = "somepass"; ``` the request goes through and the server responds with a *201 Created*, as expected. The response body ($http_rb) contains the correct result. However, $http_rs still shows *401 Unauthorized*. I believe this happens because curl receives a 401 challenge first, then retries with the provided credentials and gets the correct 201. It seems $http_rs is reflecting the status from the initial challenge rather than the final response. This is on Kamailio v6.0.1. As a workaround, I tried manually setting the *Authorization* header like this: ``` $var(credentials) = "someuser:somepass"; $http_req(hdr) = "Authorization: Basic " + $(var(credentials){s.encode.base64}); ``` In that case, $http_rs correctly shows 201. Is it expected for $http_rs to stay at 401 in the first scenario? Or should it reflect the final status code after curl completes the full request cycle? Thanks, Joel.

We are fixing the FreeSwitch issue with Contact headers containing ";" character in the user param. https://github.com/signalwire/freeswitch/issues/2824 Now required to test other use cases where the user part contains "&" / "$" / "," / "?" / "/" Could you provide some examples of SIP messages with these characters in the user part?
