lets sat your proxy gets an initial request with pre-loaded route header Route: sip:proxy.foo.bar assuming that proxy.foo.bar is hostname of the proxy and not any of the domains that the proxy is responsible for
Under what conditions would that happen?
it is very common that hostname of proxy is different than users's domains.
And, do you think this is a Best Common Practice (BCP)? Namely, a clear separation between the domains the proxy is responsible for and the hostname[s] of the server itself?
yes, i think that this separation is very useful.
As I think about this, anyone who controls a domain can set up an A record that points to my openser box. So, as an openser.cfg "programmer", I don't want to process just any message that might end up on my box, I want to process only messages targeted at domains that I explicitly configure for, recognizing that I also have to handle numeric IP addresses.
sure.
