Hello,

usally there are not special requirements regarding the localhost. Is kamailio 
actually listening on the localhost? You could check e.g. with netstat or 
kamcmd/kamcli commands.

Cheers,

Henning

Subject: [SR-Users] ICMP Port Unreachable using loopback interface with 
ethernet IP

The scenario is Kamailio on Debian 11 talking to an external application server 
that returns a 302 with a Contact that contains Kamailio's own IP and a 
different port. Kamailio is listening on the correct port via at the given IP 
address. However, when Kamailio creates the packet to talk to itself, it it 
send over the loopback adapter "lo" and gets an ICMP port reply:

listen=udp:KAMAILIO_INTERNAL_FLOATING_IP:8888

    10.z.a.b.5000 > 10.z.x.y.5060: SIP, length: 849
        SIP/2.0 302 Moved Temporarily
        Contact: <sip:[email protected]:8888>

15:39:00.548722 lo    In  IP (tos 0x10, ttl 64, id 5431, offset 0, flags 
[none], proto UDP (17), length 949)
    10.z.x.y.5060 > 10.z.x.y.8888: SIP, length: 921
15:39:00.548732 lo    In  IP (tos 0xd0, ttl 64, id 19038, offset 0, flags 
[none], proto ICMP (1), length 576)
    10.z.x.y > 10.z.x.y: ICMP 10.44.7.136 udp port 8888 unreachable, length 556

Do I need to configure something in the OS or Kamailio to allow the ethernet IP 
to work via the loopback adapter? I haven't set up any special networking to 
cause this, it appears to be a Linux kernel behavior.
