asterisk users - Oct 2007 - Getting SIP Response Code from HANGUPCAUSE

I'd like to grab the SIP response code that comes back from an INVITE. The
HANGUPCAUSE gives the converted ISDN cause code. Anyone know of a way to get the
SIP response code instead?

Doug.

I think you can use the 'ngrep' command to see the sip packets coming in
using the sip listening port. I dont know the exact command though, you will
have to lookit up urself. you will see the sip packets coming into ur system
and in those packets you can see the response code.

Thanks. I am quite familiar with ngrep. I was asking how I could get the SIP
response code from the dial plan.

Doug.

Ah jeez. All I wanted to do was connect to a carrier and then perform fail over
logic based on their SIP response.
Not supposed to be difficult. This is what Asterisk is supposed to be good at.
We have a SIP module, why not have SIP responses available to the module.

Now, I have to look at the lossy HANGUPCAUSE variable and make a best guess.
Not an ideal situation.

We're trying to improve the ASR's we get from providers. They are low,
and often they fail calls for no particular reason. They all do it, even the big
ones like Verizon. Checking their responses for purpose of trying another
carrier on the fly, and reporting is pretty critical.

I'd agree that SIP response code should be accessible from the dial
 plan.
Knowing the exact SIP response code could be critical for making call
processing decisions. The conversion of SIP response codes to Q.931
 codes
(HANGUPCAUSE) is just too lossy. Building a truly protocol agnostic
 dial
plan API is a worthy goal. But, I think it is somewhat of an unsolvable
problem. The signaling protocols are very different and for various
 reasons
people have always wanted access to native information elements carried
 in
the protocol.

Perhaps, a very simple solution for this problem could be to support a
keyword such as "TOPLINE" in the SIP_HEADER function to fetch the
 topmost
line in a SIP message. This will not only get the caller the response
 code
for SIP response messages, but will also have the nice byproduct of
 making
the Request-URI available if the message in question is a SIP request.
