Re: [SR-Users] Dialog module's keep-alive feature uses wrong CSeq?

Hi all. I'm trying to use the dialog module's keep alive feature (ka_interval() and dlg_set_property()), and the documentation (under dlg_set_property) says this: If keep alive is enabled for a dialog, the module will send SIP OPTIONS requests with CSeq lower or equal than last request within dialog This is seems really weird to me, but the problem is worse than that - when setting dlg_set_property("ka-src"), the OPTIONS messages sent to the caller always have CSeq set to "0", regardless of what CSeq the UA sent on its invite. The problem is that while some UAs respond to these purposefully broken messages with some kind of a 5xx reply (for example, Linphone funnily sends "500 Internal Server Error"), several UAs don't respond at all. Worse than that - some of the UAs that send back 5xx replies to OPTIONS with a non-zero but invalid CSeq will completely ignore the OPTIONS keep-alive message that is sent to the caller with a CSeq 0 - for example, PJSIP responds with "503 Invalid CSeq" to a "ka-dst" OPTIONS message but will ignore a "ka-src" OPTIONS message with CSeq 0. My questions: 1. Why are keep-alive messages sent with a wrong CSeq? 2. If we're keeping the "wrong CSeq" approach, can we at least not send CSeq "0"? 3. Is there a way to change any of the above behaviors with a configuration (i.e. without patching the sources)?
