[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk not working with session border controller

[Venkat Venkataraju]

I finally got what the problem is about from the guys @ middle (i still 
dont have the documentation of the system). The asterisk seems to 
replace the contact address in the registration request.

What the middle sends is
Contact: <sip:2001*68.252.134.123=68.53.80.66+63437 at 68.22.23.84:7062>

and what Middle get back from Asterisk is
Contact: <sip:2001 at 68.252.134.123>

the SIP DEBUG trace is

So is there a way to fix it? or work around it?

Thanks
