The issue is with our PSTN switch and the fact that it is not staying in the SIP signalling path, so when the call ultimately between our MVNO carrier and outbound Carrier is established (200 OK) the MVNO carrier and PSTN carrier begin talking to each other.
When the MVNO carrier issues a BYE to the outbound carrier, the outbound carrier does not then receive this packet as they are firewalled (and always will be).
What is the correct method of relaying calls through Kamailio but not passing on the Contact: header info? I have read that forcing a change of Contact is not the right way.
Hello,
if you want to ensure that your kamailio stays on the path of the dialog for following requests you probably want to use record-route headers for this. This is usally done with the rr module, record_route() function.
To quote from iptel.org:
"[A] Mechanism by which a proxy can inform user agents that it wishes to stay on the path of all further messages is called record routing. Such a proxy would insert Record-Route header field into SIP messages which contain address of the proxy. Messages sent within a dialog will then traverse all SIP proxies that put a Record-Route header field into the message.
The recipient of the request receives a set of Record-Route header fields in the message. It must mirror all the Record-Route header fields into responses because the originator of the request also needs to know the set of proxies."
