I have my SER server running on a Linux machine and I am attempting to forward some requests to a Cisco SIP server.  I have been running X-lite clients on windows and the same Linux box that the SER server is running on.  I have no problem completing calls between the X-lite clients OR with either X-lite client calling the Cisco SIP server directly. However, when I try to make a call from either X-lite client through the SER server I eventually get timeout methods.  I am trapping those calls and wrote the following route block:

 

route [5] {

     record_route();

     forward(uri:host, uri:port);

}

 

I have tried replacing the forward with send() and t_relay() method calls, but nothing seems to work.

 

The header from the X-lite client directly to the Cisco SIP server, which works is:

 

INVITE sip:2158200@65.221.7.xxx SIP/2.0

Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 166.34.149.xxx:5061;rport;branch=z9hG4bK5963AD09C90F6F3A16F55A271C98F573

The header from SER to the Cisco server, which does not work is:

 

INVITE sip:2158200@65.221.7.xxx SIP/2.0

The only thing that I can see different is the record_route record and an additional Via record.

 

Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong?

 

 

Thanks
