APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Container does not
  construct the Contact header field correctly when the
  application running on listening point 5066 sends an INVITE
  request. The Contact header field contains port 5060 instead
  of 5066.

  *                  Server V8.5.5 Session Initiation Protocol   *
  *                  (SIP) container                             *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The SIP Container constructs the        *
  *                      Contact header incorrectly when the     *
  *                      application is running on a             *
  *                      non-default listening point.            *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  When an application is running on a non-default listening
  point, the SIP Container uses a default listening point
  instead of the application listening point to construct the
  Contact header.
  

Problem conclusion

• The SIP Container now uses the correct listening point to
  construct the Contact header.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 8.5.5.1.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
