Hello,

I am converting a Kamailio WSS/TLS gateway to pure TCP, with an external 
HAProxy handling TLS termination and emitting the proxied connection as plain 
TCP. I am using the PROXYv2 protocol, with `tcp_accept_haproxy=yes`, to convey 
the upstream network and transport-layer reachability info into Kamailio.

I am trying to figure out best practices for mapping the contacts on those 
connections to the proxied connections themselves. 

For registrations, tcp_force_alias() (with `tcp_accept_aliases=yes`) works 
well, and inbound calls go to the right place. However, I'm not quite sure what 
to do with other flows, such as, for example, in-dialog requests on inbound 
calls going to the TLS endpoints. 

There are obviously a lot of possibilities, all or most of which I've tinkered 
with. These generally involve either {s.replace}-ing `;transport=tls` with 
`;transport=tcp` in the contacts received from the client, or using the 
traditional `nathelper` contact alias / RURI alias bag of tricks. However, I 
don't like the former solution because it leads to a non-compliant R-URI going 
to the endpoint (it's not the ;transport it sent in its contact), and I don't 
like the latter because it seems like there are too many moving parts. 

When tcp_force_alias() works so well for registrations, there must be some 
small linchpin I'm missing for normal request-reply flows. What is it?

Thanks in advance!
