[Asterisk-Users] Re: retrans_pkt: Maximum retries exceeded on call

[Clif Jones]

I noticed this too and it is a pain to look at.  I saw it because some 
of my SIP phones were turned off and
the NOTIFY's for "no voicemail" reached maximum re-transmissions. Duh! 
Nobody was there to answer it.
I didn't check to see what the log level was but if it only shows up on 
-vvv console option, I can live with it.
