Hello Alex!
1. First of all I'd like to apologize about my yesterday unwise notice. :-)
2. Regarding your paragraph 2 -> "Via ..." & "Supported: path"?
And how to make Kamailio to "proxy" REIGISTER to upstream registrar
(Asterisk - do you know it supports "path"? For a what degree does
Asterisk follow "the letter of RFCs"?)?
3. Regarding "topoh" I will read, ok. As I remember MY config has something
modparam("topoh", "mask_ip", "1.1.1.2")
modparam("topoh", "mask_callid", 0)
I think I will cope this by myself.. :-)
4. Yes, I know about "htable", I can complete it by myself. I familiar
with this.
Thank you for your asnwers Alex.
Kind regards,
Ellad
