Hello,
t_precheck_trans() is returning true if a SIP worker process has
received the SIP request and it is handling it at that moment. However,
in case of a retransmission, that can be at the moment when the
transaction was already created for the previous same requests (e.g.,
via t_newtran() or the execution is in a branch_route block). The specs
require that a stateful proxy re-sends the last response in case of a
re-transmission. t_check_trans() is used for that purpose, to see if the
transaction was already created and to what specs require.
If still not clear, I will try to add more details.
Cheers,
Daniel

Probably an elementary question, but we're
relatively new at digging
into the details. We are trying to understand the following block of
config code and have a question or two. Our assumption is the
t_precheck_trans() function tells us whether another packet has
arrived already as a retransmission. However, we're not clear on what
the t_check_trans() is doing assuming the condition is true. Any
direction on this?
Thanks.
route[CHECK_RETRANS]
{
# handle retransmissions
if(t_precheck_trans()) {
t_check_trans();
exit;
}
