Re: [reSIProcate] DNS graylist issue with non-INVITE transaction failures


Looks good to me.  I'm not really sure who is using this interface anyway.  If someone is using this interface today and cares, then please speak up.  ; )

Any objections to the following type of change? It would modify the signature of the current MarkListener::onMark callback to allow changing of the entries via pass-by-reference. I could always add a new callback onMarkCreated if breaking source compatibility is bad.

If one of the listeners doesn't want the mark to be added they would just set expiry to 0.

What do you think about modifying the MarkListener class to give the App Writer control over inserts to black/gray list?

This problem is discussed in the following RFC's:  http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4320http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4321

RFC Statements:  

Without a provisional, a late final response is the same as no response at all and will likely result in blacklisting the late- responding element ([3]). If an element is delaying its final response at all, sending a 100 Trying after Timer E reaches T2 prevents this blacklisting without damaging recovery from unreliable transport failure.

4. Normative Updates to RFC 3261

4.1. Action 1

An SIP element MUST NOT send any provisional response with a Status- Code other than 100 to a non-INVITE request. An SIP element MUST NOT respond to a non-INVITE request with a Status-Code of 100 over any unreliable transport, such as UDP, before the amount of time it takes a client transaction's Timer E to be reset to T2. An SIP element MAY respond to a non-INVITE request with a Status-Code of 100 over a reliable transport at any time. Without regard to transport, an SIP element MUST respond to a non- INVITE request with a Status-Code of 100 if it has not otherwise responded after the amount of time it takes a client transaction's Timer E to be reset to T2.



I believe the correct solution is for the proxy to send a 100 trying using the guidelines above.

I have the following topology setup.

Focus A  <--> Proxy A <--> Proxy B <--> User B

User B does a SUBSCRIBE and INVITE to Focus A

At some point, User B loses connectivity due to a WiFi dropout or other such network interface change that is transient.
If Focus A sends a NOTIFY to User B, the NOTIFY to User B will fail with a locally generated 408 before Proxy B sends back a 503 or 504 message. Also because this is a non-INVITE transaction, no 100 Trying is sent by Proxy A or Proxy B.

Now because this was a locally generated 408 error a DNS graylist entry is added for the IP Address of Proxy A since it was an in-dialog message that was sent based on a numerical IP Route header.

This then causes all of Focus A's other traffic which is Routed through Proxy A to temporarily fail including new transactions.

Another interesting side effect is that even though the original Route header did not include a transport= value (Route: x.x.x.x:port), resip will try to contact that IP:Port with TCP even though TCP was never part of the original DNS lookup (not in the SRV records).

I can see a few possible ways to fix this issue:

- Change Proxy A to send 100 Trying for non-INVITE transactions. This will change the TransactionState from "Trying" to "Connecting" which then won't trigger a graylist (requires Proxy changes)
- Change TransactionState class to only graylist entries for INVITE transactions based on "mMachine==ClientInvite" since those are the only ones which seem to send 100 Trying messages.
- Allow Application writer control over black/gray list.
   - If we don't want to break source compatibility, we could modify the MarkListener class to add a new virtual function "before" insertion which could return true/false or allow modifying the Mark or Expirery.
   - If we wanted to break source compatibility, we could modify the current onMark callback to have a new signature and be called before insertion allowing changing of the values.

If anybody is interested, I have a full resip debug log showing this issue from Focus A's perspective.
