[OpenSIPS-Users] Is NAPTR query always necessary?

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Eason ,

the looping happens because your OpenSIPS does not recognize the domain 
from RURI as local domain (to be processed locally) and simply fwds it 
based on DNS.

In your script, do you use multi-domain support? Is it based on the 
default opensips cfg ?

Bogdan
