[SR-Users] reply cannot be forwarded - no 2nd via

[Henning Westerholt]

Hello Ryan,

the replies are forwared with the Via header. So if there is no second Via header in the reply from the MRCP server, Kamailio can't properly route this. So this looks like an issue with the MRCP.

Have a look to this example for a somewhat similar setup that describe it in detail: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3665#section-3.2

Cheers,

Henning

Hello,

I have been having an issue using kamailio to load balance to a SIP/MRCP server. I believe that the issue actually lies with the reply being sent from the final recipient, but I wanted to be sure that I understood the problem and to see if there were any possible solutions within Kamailio.

I am using the dispatcher module to dispatch SIP INVITES to media resources, in this case I am just using a single host in a single dispatcher group. The configuration that I have has worked just fine for other SIP/MRCP servers, which is why I think the issue is with this target in particular.

The INVITE is routed correctly and contains the headers that it should. The invite comes originally from a Freeswitch, arrives at Kamailio, who should then dispatch to a host in the group.

x.x.x.x:4901 is Kamailio
x.x.x.x:8090 is Freeswitch
y.y.y.y:8000 is the final target

This is the invite, as received by the final target after dispatched via Kamailio

The reply that the server sends back appears to be missing a second Via header, which is preventing Kamailio for routing it correctly (based on the error message from core/forward.c)

This is the reply sent by the target destination

It is correct that there should still be a 2nd Via header in the 200 OK reply from the target host, right?

If so, is there anything else that can be done in Kamailio to handle this, or is this mrcp server simply not complying properly with SIP?

There’s no funky natting between these hosts or anything like that.

Thanks in advance!
