Hi Anil, If I understand you correctly then I think you want to know the sender's IP and port number. This information can be obtaine from the SDP. Via header gives information of Proxy not of sender's.

It does not specify from where the request has been come, as the ports for sending request and receiving responses can be different. I think the only way we can tell is by seeing the sending ip and port in IP header of the packet. Please correct if I am wrong. Thanks, Anil This email contains material that is confidential.
