[Asterisk-Dev] why chan_sip:regcontext registers Noop ?

[Chris A. Icide]

Luigi,

Take a look at the SIP Registration section of the following patch:

<http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=4371>

It allows you to do execute any dialplan function when a SIP or IAX device registers or the register expires.  This adds the functionality that the regcontext doesn't have.
