Hi Robert,
yes, that the correct approach.
On the other hand, medium / long term, the plan is to have directly in
opensips the capability of checking the health of ongoing dialogs
(without relying on the capabilities of the end points):
1) signalling level - like doing in-dialog pings or implement an SST
endpoint
2) media level - we have 95% working an integration with rtpproxy to
report media timeouts to opensips for cutting the call at signalling
level also.
Nevertheless, Asterisk provides good capabilities (like SST,media
timeout, etc) to detect the zombie calls, so you can rely on the
OpenSIPS - Asterisk symbiosis ;)
Best regards,
Bogdan

At this point the whole thing doesn't get any further. I can't imagine that this behaviour is in accordance to the standard as this is the only UA I have problems with. Whatever, the UA hasn't any problems in placing outgoing calls... really strange.
