I did say exactly what I did to make it work in an earlier
post. The problem was that the SipX provisioning software
was not carrying the port = 0 variable in the device group
server settings for registrar and proxy. Even though the
device group profile has 0, the device profile still puts in
5060 as a default. You have to go to each device
individually and override the setting with 0. This then
causes the handset to use the default port of 5060, but not
to specify it in the URI. This then made the MWI server
happy to auth it.

And I can tell you with all certainty that Zultys does not
use a special firmware. I have been a Zultys beta tester for
5 years working with the dev guys. Aastra has a provisioning
system where it goes to the Internet on first boot (after
factory default) and looks up the mac address a database
maintained by Aastra. Aastra then sends back certain
identity information, such as the correct splash screen
bitmap and agent string, etc. 

The actual firmware is direct from Aastra and is unmodified
(in the Zultys case).

What got my back up was that in my first post I asked what
information to gather to send to the SipX forum and instead
I was told to send a SIP log to Aastra. Believe me they
would have absolutely no interest in even replying.

I am new to SipX, but not to IP tel. I am not sure which
logs give me what sort of information (apart from
sipXproxy.log). I have been using sipx-trace and sipviewer
(when necessary) to do my investigations to date. Where I
came unstuck with this was that I did not know why I was
getting an auth error.

As it turned out, it was because the phone was subscribing
with the port in the URI. From Joegen's post (the RFC
excerpt), I could see that the port designator is a key part
of a URI match and this is what SipX didn't like. However,
if SipX was being strict, it should not have allowed the
REGISTER, or INVITE methods either as these too were
appending the port to the URI.

One has to be pragmatic with SIP. There are so many
"viewpoints" on what is legal. When it comes to Aastra, a
large, isolationist company, or SipX, an open community, it
is going to be the latter that is more likely to accomodate
change than the former. Just the way of the world.
