<div dir="auto">What happens is rhis: everybody uses the topplogy hiding module with the default encryption password. If found that 2 opensips boxes where the source does topology hiding, cannot talk to the second box if both boxes have the same encryption password. The second box will decode the call ID and respond using the first box client-side call ID. The whole SIP protocol breaks down. I took down the largest hosted switch provider in the US. <div dir="auto">Please let me know if you have any other questions, via private email.</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote gmail_quote_container"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Jul 17, 2025, 5:53 PM Bogdan-Andrei Iancu <<a href="mailto:bogdan@opensips.org">bogdan@opensips.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hi,<br>

The only thing you can do is (1) ask the carrier for an example of such <br>
bogus dialog and (2) investigate the SIP traffic to be sure that the BYE <br>
exchange with the carrier was correctly done...<br>
