Hi Vivek,

Yes, that *can be* a function of a B2BUA. Whether or not it is a requirement 
here is unclear, Umesh did not share those details. Since his call flow was 
showing forwarded 180s from multiple callee's, I assumed that forking 
transparency was not required.

It is also still unclear what requirement makes it a B2BUA instead of a 
proxy

Regards,
Jeroen
