[SR-Users] SIP contact header question

[Jack Davis]

Thank you for the replies, this has been helpful.


So if I do want to go down this road and want to practically implement a
solution, what is the best method of appending additional record route
headers to a 200 OK response?
I guess, specifically, adding them to the 200 OK response that is given by
kamailio to a re-invite.

Thank you,
Jack Davis
