Some proxies hide/suppress/obfuscate via headers, and then reverse the
process on responses. A proxy that does so breaks loop checking by any
of the proxies whose vias it hid. So I think a proxy that does this MUST
perform a loop check itself even if it does not fork.
Hmmm, if you have a loop consisting of two obfuscating non-forking
proxies and one non-obfuscating forking proxy, could any of the three
proxies detect the loop?
Yes, if the obfuscating proxy performs the loop checking based on its
own Via.
But if you have *two* obfuscating proxies in the loop then I think it
becomes impossible to detect the loop.
In a way, this is similar the a loop that includes both a sip leg and a
PSTN leg.
I don't have a good solution for either of these.
