[asterisk-users] Dropping Conference calls

The key item in my logs, which would preface the call dropping, was: 
[2011-06-28 09:43:49] DEBUG[25563] chan_sip.c: ** SIP TIMER: Cancelling
retransmit of packet (reply received) Retransid #858

For instance - a call would be connected.  SIP debug/core debug on.  At the
14:30 mark I would begin tailing the full log.  Once I saw the SIP TIMER
notice, it would be followed by a new INVITE (re-invite) SIP transmission
that would be sent to the phone currently on call.  This re-invite was odd
in that it would be on a different port to the phone than was already
established (for example the NAT outgoing SIP OPTIONS would be sent to the
phone on port 27608 - and this re-invite might go out on port 35780).  The
behavior following would be: Asterisk would hang up as though the parties
disconnected - however the phone would show the call was still going and
would continue sending SIP responses to asterisk indicating as such.  When
the phone was manually hung up it would send a SIP BYE (as normal) to
asterisk - indicating it had no notice that Asterisk dropped the call.

Adding to sip.conf
	session-timers=refuse
Resolved the issue by stopping Asterisk from sending these re-invites during
a live call.

Hope that helps!  I have more SIP debugs/logs if they're useful to ya.

What would I be looking for in the logs to indicate that time? 

I'm looking into the sip session timers. I believe the issue lies there, but
haven't confirmed that just yet.
