All,

Pretty simple question here. When you do a verify request are you filling in 
the iat with your sbc's current date/time or using the DATE information from 
the invite?

With Neustar the iat is currently optional. IQNT is basically removing the DATE 
header in a test we are doing by sending them a call and getting it back in a 
different region.

It really does not make sense to me to use the DATE header because it could be 
messed with by anyone in the path. It is untrusted. The iat is trusted so when 
you verify it makes more sense to use the current date/time of your SBC because 
the limitation is 60 seconds from AS to VS.

I imagine Neustar made it optional because their own system has some 
intelligence when it comes to this expiration of the AS.

On top of that Metaswitch is not prepared for this situation. They are 
basically counting on that DATE header to be there in their recommended 
perimeta SBC config. They plan to fix it by using the current date/time.

Just looking for how others are handling this. Just leaving it blank for now?

Matt
