PM59844: SIP CONTACT HEADER TRANSPORT CHANGED ON RE-INVITE

Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

A Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Contact header transport
type was changed.
On first INVITE we saw:

Contact: <sip:myhost.company.com:5061;transport=tls>

Then on re-INVITE we saw:

Contact: <sip:myhost.company.com:5061;transport=tcp>

The contact header should be the same in all subsequent requests
within a dialog.

*                  Server V8.0 and V8.5                        *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The SIP Container changes the           *
*                      transport in the Contact Header in a    *
*                      reINVITE and does not use the Contact   *
*                      header from the initial INVITE.         *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
SIP Container did not use the whole Contact header received in
the initial INIVITE as the Contact Header for the subsequent
reqeusts as it should.

Problem conclusion

The Sip Container is using now the transport received in
the Contact header of the initial INVITE request for all
the subsequest requests.
The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix packs 8.0.0.4 and 8.5.0.1.  Please refer to the Recommended
