[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk handling of SIP info

We encouter a situation where we need to use SIP info to convey infomation
for one end point to another endpoint. I use asterisk to do the test and
find asterisk does not forward the SIP info to another endpoint, but act as
UAS and returns a 4xx error message. I think asterisk is not right to handle
this SIP info message. 
 
In RFC 3261 Page 70 "This protocol is designed to be extended. Future
extensions may define new methods and header fields at any time. An element
MUST NOT refuse to proxy a request becasue it contains a method or header
field it does not know about". In this case, asterisk does not understand
this INFO message, so it acts as a UAS instead of proxy.
 
How to let asterisk just forward this request to the other endpoint and
instead processing it as a UAS?
 
Thank you,
 
Wei

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk handling of SIP info

The last time I looked Asterisk was not a proxy server. It has been
quite a while since I looked however so I may be mistaken as to it's
SIP capabilities.

Asterisk is not a SIP proxy.
