 To explain this behavior of sipxbridge:

 If the endpoint that teliax were sending the options to were a SIP
Phone, then the SIP phone would answer with a 200 OK to the options
and with an sdp corresponding to the supported codecs.

However, sipxbridge is not a sip phone but rather a B2BUA. Hence it
does not make any assumptions about "supported codecs" these are
negotiated end to end by the sip phone and the ITSP when call setup
occurs.  Thus, SipXbridge returns the NOT ACCEPTABLE.

Teliax is not the only ITSP that sends OPTIONS.

As you note, that does not affect call setup behavior and can hence be
safely ignored.

Do  consider sharing your settings for teliax so it can be included in
the list of interoperable ITSPs. To do so, you can send the file
/etc/sipxpbx/sipxbridge.xml after editing out any sensitive
information such as password and user name. I will update the list of
interoperable ITSP on the wiki.
