What is on the network side? I don't believe BroadSoft allows for multiple 18X responses, and in my opinion no system should. Once you have sent an offer, the only way to modify it should be a RE-INVITE. I believe the RFC's do technically allow for this though, and in that case the newer 18X message will override/replace the previous. Another issue may be that 183 messages usually are accompanied with SDP, where 180 message are used when no early media (and therefore no SDP) is to be used. So a second 183 with no SDP is all kinds of wrong to me. Hope that helps, -Scott From: voiceops-bounces at voiceops.org [mailto:voiceops-bounces at voiceops.org] On Behalf Of John Myhre Sent: Monday, April 23, 2012 4:19 PM To: voiceops at voiceops.org Subject: [VoiceOps] Broadworks media server not playing well with early media I seem to be having a problem with Broadworks thinking an early media stream has ended. I'm sending a call out to the PSTN and receiving back a 183 with SDP (presumably early media). Broadworks is dutifully passing everything down to the device. I'm then receiving a second 183, this time with no SDP (presumably because someone's gateway received a CPG). In this case, Broadworks appears to interpret the lack of SDP as meaning the early media has ended (not the case) and plumbs the media server into the bearer path to play ringing. Anyone run into this problem? Any ideas for a way around it? I've found a reference for dealing with this problem from the access side, but not when the 183s are coming from the network side. I'm running Broadworks Rel14sp4. Many thanks for any ideas! /John
