Hello,

I don't think it's related to the IP-phone because I notice my 
Asterisk-server also gets these messages from my SIP-provider.

The call goes : IPphone --> Asterisk --> SIP-provider

It does not occur always when calling from the same IP-phone. It can be 
any IP-phone and phone type. It can also occur at any time : when there 
are few calls and when there are many calls.

The negative side when this occurs is that there is no audio when the 
calls gets answered. These messages flood the CLI untill the call gets 
answered. Then it stops, but there is no-way-audio.

I have a second Asterisk-server (same version : 1.8.12.2) and there I 
see that this messages occurs just 1 time in a call.


Could it be an issue of Asterisk ? Timing issue ? Any idea which issue 
and how to tune it ?


Kind regards,
Jonas.
