I think you do need to have credentials associated with the different routes 
you have and load those properly. From your description, however, I don’t 
understand why it is dependent on identifying the realm in the response. If 
multiple downstream servers are all using the same realm (but have different 
credentials?) then how are you differentiating based on the realm value?

The idea with uac_auth is that when you send, for example, to server 
broadworks1 you would load all the possible valid credentials for broadworks1, 
including the realm it will challenge with. When you then call uac_auth() from 
failure route, it will look through all the loaded credentials for one with a 
matching realm to the broadworks1 challenge and use that. If the call fails for 
any reason to broadworks1 and then you decide to route to server asterisk1, you 
would load all the possible credentials for that server into the auth AVPs the 
same way and failure route handling is the same.

You could very well have a use case for verifying the realm in failure_route; 
I’m not saying you don’t. I don’t see it from what you’ve described, but I may 
be missing something. I think the reason there is no variable for pulling the 
challenge realm value directly is because normally with this mechanism it 
shouldn’t be needed.

I would appreciate if someone could confirm that uac_auth() will match the 
realm as I’m asserting. I’m 95% sure this is how it worked in my testing, but 
that was a while ago and as I said the realm matching doesn’t appear to be 
documented. I’d hate to be steering you down a wrong path.

Johan,
  I will definitely try that.  Thank you!

Ben,
  The problem is I have multiple destinations with the same realm.  In my case, 
several different Broadworks app servers.  I haven't checked them exhaustively 
but I think they all reply with realm="BroadWorks" in their authentication 
headers.  I've got some Asterisk boxes in here, and I think they're all the 
domain of the SIP request URI in the case of an INVITE.  I think I'll have to 
choose ahead of time which credentials go with which route, no?  Unless I'm 
still not wrapping my head around how this is supposed to work.

Jeff,

My point was that the uac_auth() is supposed to handle the realm matching for 
you. If you simply load all of the auth data based on the call target as you 
already plan to do, uac_auth() should look through that data for you to find 
credentials with a matching realm. You don’t need to do that part yourself in 
the script.

Good catch on Proxy-Authorization vs Proxy-Authenticate.  I think I've been 
looking at this too long.  I checked the module and that's exactly what it is.

My hope was to load the uac_auth user/pass AVPs ahead of time from a DB based 
on where I knew I was sending the call, load the realm one in the failure route 
based on what comes back in the header, and then fire the uac_auth() function.  
It looks like I may have to manually extract the realm from whichever header 
comes in.  Not ideal, but probably workable.

the AVPs configured in the UAC_AUTH module and uses the first one whose realm 
matches the challenge realm. So in order to authenticate any challenge, you 
must load all of the possible credentials into those AVPs.

According to the docs, $ar provides the realm from the “Authorization” or 
“Proxy-Authorization” headers. Not from the ”Proxy-Authenticate” header, which 
is what you have.

Subject: [OpenSIPS-Users] learning the realm from authentication challenges
I'm trying to recover the realm of an auth challenge to OpenSIPS so I can 
respond to it with the uac_auth() function, and that requires knowing the 
realm.  The docs say that 
$ar<https://www.opensips.org/Documentation/Script-CoreVar-3-1#toc6> should 
provide that, perhaps written like $(<reply>ar) to get it in the right context. 
 I'm having some trouble getting the data.

failure_route[relay_failure] {
...
        if (t_check_status("407")) {
                xlog("L_NOTICE", "[1] Proxy-Authenticate: 
$(<reply>hdr(Proxy-Authenticate))\n");
                xlog("L_NOTICE", "[2] Auth Realm: $(<reply>ar)\n");
                xlog("L_NOTICE", "[3] Auth Realm: $ar\n");
        }
...
}

The logs show:

/usr/sbin/opensips[33044]: [1] Proxy-Authenticate: Digest realm="asterisk", 
nonce="5f6d42140000936ad820dbcd452e6bcd145777e458dd46dd", qop="auth"
/usr/sbin/opensips[33044]: [2] Auth Realm reply: <null>
/usr/sbin/opensips[33044]: [3] Auth Realm: <null>

Is it possible to get the realm?  Is it possible to build a response with 
uac_auth() for an arbitrary authentication challenge?

This is on 3.1.0~20200923~88f89e941.
