Re: [SR-Users] Topoh hiding prefixes

Hi Alex, thanks for the answer. My customer is on the SIP side. So my customer sees a prefix of my PSTN gateway in the contact header. Sequential requests are being sent to <prefix><number>@<gateway_ip>. However I think when I remove the prefix from the contact, the gateway would have no problem in responding to this seq. request (Isn't the call defined by to_tag, from_tag, call_id?). So I want to hide the contact prefix from the UA.
