Hi, A minor old school SIP question to think about when getting prepared for the holidays: Fact: A stateful proxy forks an INVITE. Fact: Some early dialogs are created. Fact: The proxy receives a 4xx response on early dialog ED1. Fact: The proxy does not forward the 4xx response, as it waits for final responses on the other early dialogs. Fact: The UAC sends an in-dialog request on ED1 (since it is not aware that ED1 has been terminated). Question: Does the forking proxy send a 481 response to the request, or does it forward it towards the remote UAS previously associated with ED1? The reason I ask is because of a question whether there should always be a 2xx response to a PRACK, even if the associated dialog has been terminated. But, a proxy that does not know PRACK would of course send a 481. Regards, Christer
