[sr-dev] RFC 6141 & CANCEL transaction matching

Hello,


the cancel is matched based on via branch value or the other tokens in
the request (callid, cseq, ...). If you want to restrict on matching by
source ip/port, you have to do it in the configuration file.

I guess that gives you what you need by default.

Cheers,
Daniel
