Hi Denis, The Contact always contains the UA's URI (address/FQDN). A proxy wishing to remain on the path adds a Record-Route header with its URI to the request. These Record-Route headers are reflected in the response. The set of URIs in the Record-Route headers establishes the route-set in the two UAs for the dialog, assuming the request is one that establishes a dialog (like INVITE). The Contact header establishes the Remote-Target for the dialog. When one of the UAs wants to send a request for that dialog (e.g. BYE), it includes Route headers with the route-set, and uses the Remote-Target as the Request-URI.
