Hello,

The options_reply() function does not answer OPTIONS pings that contain a username in the request URI. To its credit, the documentation does say that, too:

   http://kamailio.org/docs/modules/4.0.x/modules/siputils.html#idp131056

The question is: why not? I do not see anything in RFC 3261 Section 11.1 ("Construction of an OPTIONS Request") that seems to rule out an OPTIONS request with a user part:

   http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3261#section-11.1

Quite a few UAs out there, including, notably, Metaswitch, do send user parts in the OPTIONS RURI. To deal with them, I am forced to simply

   sl_send_reply("200", "OK");

instead of using options_reply().

What is the underlying theory?

Thanks,

-- Alex
