Hello all,

I have been toying with kamailio lately, and I thought I had gotten to the point where I had a mostly working (tm) prototype. I gave it a test drive with some real calls, however, and an issue manifested at least once, where homer received packets originating from the kamailio host, and whose destination was also the kamailio host.

The dialog this manifested in is a generally problematic one, with many retransmissions occurring because of slow database access (I haven't implemented htable caching yet). No packet capture over the network is actually taking place, I'm copying everything to homer with "trace_mode"set to 1.

Homer shows these messages like in the screenshot: https://imagebin.ca/v/3VGJAmovRBmo. Here's an example of a packet:

Can something like this be triggered by misconfiguration in the routing scripts? Should it worry me and should I dig into it more? Could it be a bug of the siptrace module and nothing bad actually took place? I'm not sure where to start with this, so any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
