checking docs, it seems like that. I will have to look at the code and eventually make an option without parameter. Otherwise, like it is not, the parameter forces an outbound proxy to be used for forwarding.

I guess that makes sense for setting $ds to replicate the message and explains the behaviour I was seeing both branches going to $ds which was set in t_replicate uri param.


You sent me the sip trace and you can see there that two register requests are sent out, both to the address in the parameter of the t_replicate(), but one has the address from append_branch() in r-uri. So the forking was done.

Maybe you can try with a look via kamailio itself:

$ru = uri1;
append_branch("uri2");
t_replicate("sip:kamailioip:kamailioport");

Then you see that is coming with src_ip==myself and simply do t_relay() and the r-uri should point to where it needs to be forwarded.

Can you forsee any issues with using 2 forward requests instead of t_replicate. the only difference i can see in the message is that the second forward adds a duplicate (expected behaviour) via address (i presume because the message already had a via added in the previous forward. So what I was thinking was, something like this:

on registrar 1:

    save("location")
    forward(BACKUP_REGISTRAR_2);
    forward(BACKUP_REGISTRAR_3);

then on the 2nd registrar something like this:

    if ( src_ip == BACKUP_REGISTRAR_1 || src_ip == BACKUP_REGISTRAR_3 ) {
            save("location","0x02");
            exit;
    };

I use 0x02 flag so that save does not send reply because forward above is stateless.

A 'kamctl ul show <contact>' seems to look the same accross the 3 registrars when testing.

The only thing I can think of is if kamailio is really busy and does not get to process the message, because forward is stateless, it wont re-transmit a couple times to relay the message.

I guess, it would be nice if t_replicate accepted a couple of uri to replicate to then for each uri set $ds to uri an send message, however, I'm not sure if that is even feasable :)
