Not responding to ICE initial offer

Using Asterisk 18.2.2, a client trying to negotiate ICE doesn’t get any ICE offer back from Asterisk when it sends it’s initial offer. The client is sending in it’s SDP:

and Asterisk responds with:

s=Asterisk
c=IN IP4 7.3.7.1
t=0 0

a=rtpmap:104 telephone-event/8000
a=fmtp:104 0-16
a=ptime:20
a=maxptime:20
a=sendrecv

which seems to be lacking any response to the client’s initial ICE offer.

A core set debug 5 log for the call.

Any ideas why Asterisk is not responding to the ICE initial offer?

There’s no ICE candidates in the INVITE, so it doesn’t respond with ICE[1].

OK. So I have the client now sending candidates:

So why the SIP/2.0 488 Not Acceptable Here to the first SDP?

The media stream became “RTP/AVPF” instead of “RTP/AVP”. To support “RTP/AVPF” the “use_avpf” option has to be set to “yes”.

:dizzy_face: One very significant letter in that m= line. I even side-by-side diffed the two SDP packets but didn’t see the AVP vs AVPF due to the port being different also and looking like the difference on that line.

It’s working now. Thanks!

As an aside, any advise on whether I want AVPF or not? It seems like it’s something good. Why would I not want it?

It doesn’t really matter either way.
