> In this particular case, the REFER request is attempt to replace a remote dialog with a new URI. Our handling of this is a bit interesting:
> # If the {{TRANSFER_CONTEXT}} is present, use that
> # Otherwise, use the endpoint's context
> # Then attempt to send the channel to the {{external_replaces}} extension in that context
> There are a few problems with this:
> # The {{external_replaces}} extension is unlikely to exist (it's not exactly well known)
> # Even if you create that extension in the appropriate context, it's generally useless. We don't set the destination of the REFER, which should be the URI in the {{Referred-To}} header (in this case, {{sip:callxml at 132.177.253.60:5060}}). This means that {{external_replaces}} can't know where it was supposed to send the channel.
> Plus, the ERROR message is wrong:
> {noformat}
> [Sep 30 04:30:46] ERROR[18918]: res_pjsip_refer.c:663 refer_incoming_attended_request: Received REFER for remote session on channel 'PJSIP/unknown-0000000a' from endpoint 'unknown' but 'external_replaces' context does not exist for handling
> {noformat}
> (It's the extension that's missing, not the context)
> Generally, I think it should be:
> # Use the {{TRANSFER_CONTEXT}} if available
> # Use the endpoint context next
> # See if we have an extension matching the user portion of the {{Referred-To}} header.
> # If so, go there.
> Ideally, we would also have the ability to bypass the dialplan and simply create a new outbound dialog to the SIP URI provided.
