[SR-Users] Source Port on TLS OPTIONS from Dispatcher

Thanks Daniel, I needed some certainty to get unstuck.  It appears that the problem is actually related to the TLS config.  I am using multiple TLS configs, so it looks like the problem may be that the server_name server_id are not being set, so the reply is returning to the default TLS config.  Not to mention that when I set the testing domains certs under the default config, it works...

This is observed in the logs:

tls_get_connect_server_name(): xavp with outbound server name not found
tls_get_connect_server_id(): xavp with outbound server id not found
tls_complete_init(): Using initial TLS domain TLSc<default> 

Is there a way to set this with xavp_cfg in the event_route?  I have read that section and tried may combinations, but since the OPTIONs packets from the dispatcher module do not seem to traverse the standard routes, I am not sure how to handle this.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

As I did several Kamailio-MSTeams interconnectivity deployments, I can tell that the source port was never a problem. The TLS connection is kept open and MSTeams sends back traffic on it.

Yes, I have read the article and I have tested and confirmed that I am correctly appending the contact header (I probably should have left that in the snippet for clarity).  Below is an example of Kamailio setting up the connection.  It is going out port 46245 this time, but it is random.

This is a problem because the servers I am sending the OPTIONS to (MS Teams) are enforcing rport so the responses are returned to a port that Kamailio is not listening on.  I have tried to force the socket in the event route (relevant parts of snippet below) but it does not appear to help.  I should also mention that I am not behind NAT and the TLS socket is specified in the dispatcher attrs.
