[OpenSIPS-Users] "received=" parameter in Via

[Alex Massover]

Hi Bogdan!

You wrote: "So, received is mandatory only if rport is present."

The issue is when rport is present and IP address is identical to the IP in Via, OpenSIPS doesn't add "received".

Hi Alex,

My understanding of the text
"In fact, the server MUST insert a "received" parameter
 containing the source IP address that the request came from, even if
it is identical to the value of the "sent-by" component. "

is related to

"If this Via header field value contains an "rport" parameter"

So, received is mandatory only if rport is present .

Regards,
Bogdan
