Hi,

2xx responses shall be retransmitted by the TU and not by transaction layer.
But yes, if  Invite client transaction has already been terminated in "Calling" 
state, then re-transmission of 2xx will continue until timeout.

But this behavior is dependent on TU.

transaction returns a
timeout, this is treated as a 408 (Request Timeout) response. "

If this situation happens in an INVITE Txn then according to 17.1.1.2 "If
the client transaction is still in the "calling" state when timer B
fires, the client transaction SHOULD inform the TU that a timeout has
occurred .  The client transaction MUST NOT generate an ACK."

And theTransaction transitions to Terminated.

What happens if now a 2xx response is received from the server.
This could easily happen if the transaction timers are different on
client and server. So would the server re-transmit 2xx till its
timeout? Is that the only solution today?
