If I send an ACK with no body when I see a 200 OK coming back from the
iTSP  in response to the RE-INIVITE previously sent to it, with SDP
that does NOT include G711 ( which is what our park server wants ),
what does that signify?

sipXbridge re-INVITE ( no sdp ) ---> ITSP
sipXbridge                              <----  ITSP ( OK G729 )
sipXbridge                              ----> ACK (no SDP)

I ask because I have also come across another flavor of ITSP that sends me

sipXbridge re-INVITE ( no sdp ) ---> ITSP
sipXbridge                              <----  ITSP ( OK no SDP )

Which I assume is a protocol error (or is it?).

Thanks.
