Opened: Jun 15, 2016

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

MRF SIP route table implementation does not add a persistence entry if the message was routed via an iRule.

Impact

Since MRF SIP persistence may be bidirectional, not having the persistence entry will keep message flowing in the opposite direction from being automatically routed via persistence.

Conditions

If the message is routed via an iRule, a SIP persistence entry will not be created.

Workaround

An iRule could be used to route messages directed towards the original client.

Fix Information

MRF SIP will add a persistence entry for message routed via an iRule.
