Hi Klaus,
this is more than correct - I will replace the current description with
this both on CVS and web.
thanks and regards,

Corrections welcome.
1.5.1. loose_route()
The function performs routing of SIP requests which contain a route
set. The name is a little bit confusing, as this function also routes
requests which are in the "strict router" format.
This function is usually used to route in-dialog requests (like ACK,
BYE, reINVITE). Nevertheless also out-of-dialog requests can have a
"pre-loaded route set" and my be routed with loose_route. It also
takes care of translating between strict-routers and loose-router.
The loose_route function analyzes the Route: headers in the requests.
If there is no Route: header, the function returns 0 and routing
should be done with normal lookup functions. If a Route: header is
found, the function returns 1 and behaves as described in section
16.12 of RFC 3261. There is only one exception: If the request is
out-of-dialog (no to-tag) and there is only one Route: header
indicating the local proxy, then the Route: header is removed and the
function returns 0.
Make sure your loose_routing function can't be used by attackers to
bypass proxy authorization.
The loose_routing topic is very complex. See the RFC3261 for more
details (grep for "route set" is a good starting point in this
comprehensive RFC)
This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE

Hi!
I am wondering where I can find more information about the
loose_route() function. On Wiki, I can see that it is RFC 3261
compliant and understand what it's the difference between loose
routing and strict routing, but in my conf. file I have a test like:
if(loose_route()){...}
and I 'd like to know what kind of value this function can return or
when can it return something else than true?
To my knowledge, loose_route() returns a negative value in case of
invalid headers in the sip message or other "internal" errors. It
returns 1 (or TRUE) in case it finds a Route: header including the
proxy's domain. In this case, the function will also remove the
proxy's domain from the Route: header and sets the destination URI to
the next hop address found in the Route: header.
The function returns 0 (FALSE) if there is no Route: header present
in the message.
Also have a look at the source file /modules/rr/loose.c, in
particular functions loose_route() and after_loose().
Christian
Does someone have some information about that?
Thanks
Greg
