Contact Header Matching

When sending SIP packets, the IP Phones observe the Contact header by matching the username,

domain name, port, and transport per SIP RFC 3261.This is called “strict SIP Contact header

matching.” However, in specific networks (such as behind some SOHO routers), the phone

registers with its private address in the Contact, but when the response is sent back, the router

maintains the public side IP address in the Contact header. This causes a non-matching Contact

header and the phone does not accept the new registration expiry timer.

You can set the parameter, “sip contact matching”, which allows the Administrator to specify

the method used by the phone to match the Contact Header. Previously by default, when sending

SIP packets, the IP phones observed the contact header by doing a full URI matching of

username, domain, phone IP and port name, and transport (value=’0’). Now the default value for

the “sip contact matching” parameter is to match the username only (value=’2’). This

parameter is available via the configuration files only.
