Thanks, Daniel. I’ll update the docs to clarify this, if I get a moment.

Cheers

Phil

Hello,

Hi there,

The example config that Kamailio ships with contains this block of code in request_route:

# handle retransmissions

if(t_precheck_trans()) {

     t_check_trans();

     exit;

}

t_check_trans();

I am not fully understanding the requirement for either of the t_check_trans() here. As far as I can see from the documentation, t_check_trans() returns a boolean value and does not modify any data internally.

Can anyone help me find out what the relevance of the t_check_trans() calls is?

t_check_trans() is used to detect retransmissions. If a retransmission is received, then the last reply (if any) needs to be sent back, then t_check_trans() does an 'exit' internally.

Cheers,
Daniel
