Hello,

using UDP for forwarding is a configuration file action. Kamailio doesn't do any sip message forwarding unless there is such action in configuration file. If you want to use only tcp for sending out, be sure that request uri ($ru) or destination uri ($du) are SIP addresses with TCP transport.

Cheers,
Daniel

Hello Daniel 

Thanks for your help, actually that is my question from the beginning, is it mandatory to have sockets for UDP ?
Can I enable only TCP protocol between instances ?

Actually the error is because you try to forward via UDP (proto 1). Be sure you have listen parameter for UDP and TCP sockets.

Cheers,
Daniel

TCP alone errors were strange : on the proxy node i couldn't register and got the following errors :

=====================================================================================

These errors appearing when using two TCP and UDP, i could be able to register and make calls but still get errors
Feb 25 11:37:15 server1 [Proxy-CSCF][28999]: ERROR: ims_usrloc_pcscf [udomain.c:409]: update_pcontact(): Error updating record in DB

In addition i cleaned all UDP SRV related records from DNS zone and tried to forced all instances in the TCP mode configuration

**Also, in the TCP mode all the  ip addresses that the registrations comes from are not the real ip's of the users, and also this is very strange
i got some random  IP's

Hello,

have you look at syslog messages? Are there any errors? Between Kamailio instances, tcp for sip should work. Check also configs to be sure UDP is not enforced there.

Cheers,
Daniel

Hello list 

For some reason i couldn't register on kamailio ims when i use only TCP protocols between nodes, the error was solved when i enabled UDP between I-CSCF and S-CSCF


is it mandatory for those two nodes to talk over UDP only ? or i'm missing something ? 
and in general for sip protocol which is better ? UDP or TCP ?


Regards,
