             Summary: SIP OPTIONS ping response is tied to ast_shutting_down()
                 Key: ASTERISK-21208
                 URL: https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-21208
             Project: Asterisk
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: None
          Components: Channels/chan_sip/General
    Affects Versions: 11.2.1
         Environment: CentOS 6.3 x86_64
            Reporter: Ashley Winters
            Severity: Minor


I want asterisk to be able to inform a call distribution proxy which is performing OPTIONS pings that it doesn't want to receive any calls -- without setting the ast_shutting_down() flag. The ast_shutting_down() flag causes channel creation to fail in ast_channel_alloc(), but I want calls in-progress to be able to proceed with their IVR dialplans which often result in an outbound Dial.

'core stop gracefully' is actually not sufficiently "graceful" since it blocks new outbound calls, and 'core stop when convenient' makes asterisk continue to respond to OPTIONS with 200 OK.
