[OpenSIPS-Users] Unexpected loose_route() behavior

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Matthew,

you have a logical bug in your routing - all sequential requests are 
routed in SIP based only on Route hdrs (via loose_route), so there is no 
need to do manual routing for them. Manual routing is done only for 
initial requests.

Better see http://www.opensips.org/Resources/Webinars#toc11

When the sequential request comes from the provider, it will have a 
Route hdr pointing to your opensips and in RURI will be the IP of the 
final Asterisk box (contact from 200 OK) -> after loose_route, opensips 
will remove the Route hdr with its IP and the request will be routed 
(RURI based) to proper Asterisk.

Regards,
Bogdan
