RE: [Serusers] Re: [Serdev] Problem with Via Branch/Strange Looping Problem with ACK's

The issue is that the ACK does NOT match the loose_route() statement in the SER config and eventually hits a t_relay, however the RURI is that of the SER proxy itself so it routes to itself over and over again. What i expect is that it should hit loose_route() (or perhaps strict_route() ), which should replace the RURI with the information in the "Route:" header which would allow it to be properly routed to its destination. This same problem seems to happen with BYE messages as well (same situation and results) ----------------------- Reference #1: Section 12.1.2 of RFC3261 states: -- The route set MUST be set to the list of URIs in the Record-Route header field from the response, taken in reverse order and preserving all URI parameters. If no Record-Route header field is present in the response, the route set MUST be set to the empty set. This route set, even if empty, overrides any pre-existing route set for future requests in this dialog. The remote target MUST be set to the URI from the Contact header field of the response. --
