Hello all,

We are currently performing a number of interoperability tests between OpenSER and SIP Communicator over IPv6.

The good news is that we have successfully established IPv6 calls between two SIP Communicator instances registered on our local OpenSER installation (version 1.1.0-7 on Debian testing).

There is however something weird we'd appreciate any ideas on what might be causing it:

When running OpenSER with a default configuration, any ACKs that the caller tries to proxy through OpenSER don't get forwarded to the callee. Changing syn_branch to "no" (we saw somewhere that this might be related) didn't have any effect. I am attaching a log snippet that seems to be corresponding to the ACK processing.

In a desperate attempt to resolve the issue we added the following to our route{} clause:

if (method == "ACK") { forward("[2001:660:4701:f009:213:ceff:fea7:a88c]:5060"); exit; }

where [2001:660:4701:f009:213:ceff:fea7:a88c] is the IPv6 address of the callee.

This worked but it is obviously not (even close to) a "viable" solution.

So our question is, what would be the best way to make OpenSER forward ACKs that a caller is trying to send to a callee?

Thanks Emil
