[SIPForum-discussion] via header

[Nitin Kapoor]

Anthony,

Not sure that we can use the port "0" in VIA header field or not. As far as
i know Port 0 is reserved, but is a permissible source port value if the
sending process does not expect messages in response.

But yes i also had the same problem just few days ago when my cisco 7960 was
able to make the calls but was not able to receive the calls through
ASTERISK. After analyzing the logs and traces i got to know that my UA was
not sending any port into the VIA header field, which is as below.

<INVITE sip:5126749296 at 58.152.219.220 <sip%3A5126749296 at 58.152.219.220>SIP/2.0

sippmh_parse_via: Invalid port number in Via[12:07:52] Sendresponse: Error:
No Via Header present in Message! returned error.

At that time asterisk wasn't initializing the port to 5060.Then I had add
"port = 5060" to the top of my sip.conf file.

Thanks,
Nitin Kapoor
