Asked by:
Anonymous/private PSTN calls to a Lync Response Group do not work always

Question
-
When a caller with a blocked id calls to the lync response group, most of the time lync response saying :
SIP/2.0 488 Not Acceptable Here
FROM: "Anonymous"<sip:anonymous@anonymous. invalid>;t ag=SWxoMO6 aX6.
TO: <sip:3211211212@trunk1.speakup.be:50 60>;epid=1 AA4D5B2E4; tag=3677a7 715 When I call using a normal pstn number it works fine and it uses TRUNK1 eg:
SIP/2.0 100 Trying
FROM: "3211363636"<sip:+3211362362@sip.spe akup.nl>;t ag=mS38EZ5 SgwC
TO: <sip:3211211212@trunk1.speakup.be:50 60>
If I then call using a blocked number it works WHEN it is using TRUNK1 :
FROM: "Anonymous"<sip:anonymous@anonymous. invalid>;t ag=cHz4HWa X7cV
TO: <sip:3211211212@trunk1.speakup.be:50 60>
IF it is using TRUNK2 it will not work :
SIP/2.0 488 Not Acceptable Here
FROM: "Anonymous"<sip:anonymous@anonymous. invalid>;t ag=cHz4HWa X7cV
TO: <sip:3211211212@trunk2.speakup.be:50 60
Problem is if I would not call for eg 5 minutes and then call again using the blocked number it will fail.
If I then call using a normal number it works and afterwards it works as long as it is using the same trunk (so either 1 or 2, depending on which one the normal number used just before)
What the hell is this ?? Or better how can I solve it.I send this to my provider :

But they told me it is a LYNC problem ??

Hi Toon,
I'm assuming you are not using a provider listed on the Lync IOP page.
What they are sending "@anynymous.invalid" is not a valid FQDN/IP so that's the problem (as you can see on that blog).
The way to fix it is to ask your provider to fix it (unlikely), change your provider to a Lync supported one or get a SBC to fix that on your side.

Hugo

Problem is they are (SPEAKUP)
http://technet.microsoft.com/nl-be/lync/fp179863.aspx#SIPfor2010
I told them this, but they said they are following RFC 3261 , which is used by LYNC according to them.
I cannot find another official page where it says one needs to add user=Phone or something like that to the header so I can push them.
What does SBC stand for ?
PS : I don't use a gateway. My lync server is directly connected to a firewall and that to the internetmodem.

Yeah, i actually know another SIP provider on that list that has the same exact issue... shame this is not one of the tests for qualification :)
It's not about "user=phone", it's about Lync 2010 and 2013, by design, need to trust the FQDN/IP of where the call is coming from. If the sip provider sends an invite saying he's coming from "anonymous.invalid" that will always fail.
SBC = Session Border Controler
I would advise you to get one and that will make this, and maybe other problems in the future, to go away.
Check for Sonus, AudioCodes...

So I read wrong then.
Then what should the SIP Provider change in his header ?

Should be:
FROM: "Anonymous"<sip:anonymous@providerIP>
as for example
FROM: "Anonymous"<sip:anonymous@1.2.3.4>
or a FQDN instead of a IP, as long as you added that in as your PSTN Gateway in the topology.

The provider just sent me an email with the two images and asking me to change it like that.
The trunk one does not look like mine so I cannot change a lot , is this 2013 maybe ?
And what about the mediationserversvc.exe config file. Would that help ?
file in c:\program files\microsoft lync server 2010\mediation server :

so, how'd this one end up? Curiously.
