Hi,
This question may belong in a general SIP forum - but I'll drop it here anyway, - hope I stir no big anger ;-)
I'm running Kamailio 1.5, - use it for wholesale, and my customers typically send me calls from their Asterisk platform. I'm experiencing a very share of calls ending up in 487. This should be the client terminating the call - but is it my client (the provider with the Asterisk platform) or is it the final client - my client's client? Could Asterisk send a 487 for some reason?
I've researched this (maybe not good enough!), but cannot find the answer: Does a 487 always mean that the client gave up and hung up? If this is the case, could high PDD be my problem - it's taking too long and the client gives up?
487 is sent as response to an INVITE after caller sending a CANCEL. This is sent by Asterisk and all other UA's.
This only happens before the call is in UP state, so normally in ringing state or early media.
Why - it could be a timeout when no one answers in a system somewhere or the caller simply giving up since no one answers the call.
