Hi,

The parameter to mf_process_maxfwd_header will only be added to the message if the message did not initially contain a Max-Forwards header. If the header exists, the default behavior is to decrement the header value by one. Please check again the readme for the function.

Hi Vlad,

Okay I got the functionality of"!" symbol & also got different return codes while testing on a local server. But I am stuck with one thing that I am getting this in the wireshark logs either the max_valuefor the mf_process_maxfwd_headeris 1 or 10:

I know that 70 is the recommended Max Forwards initial value but will it be the same either we use max_value 1 or 10?

Hi,

The '!' symbol has the same meaning as in any other programming language, to negate the return code of the function.

So if you look at the return code of the mf_process_maxfwd_header at [1], you will see it returns a positive return code when the processing of the Max-Forward header succeeds, and a negative return code if the Max-Forward value is 0 or if there was another failure.

Hi Everybody,

I have a very tiny & crazy question but it is confusing me & I couldn't find its accurate answer over google that why we use "!"this before mf_process_maxfwd_header function in the main routing block. I have also seen this symbol with other functions like!is_method("REGISTER|MESSAGE") so what's its soul purpose?

How can I test the functionality of just the mf_process_maxfwd_headerfunction?

Regards,

Faisal Rehman
