This was a SIP trace of a successful u-law call.  In an earlier post Kamlesh
provided a trace of a failed G.729 call which did not include the dialog between
the Asterisk server and the ITSP.  I asked for this trace so that I could see
the codecs offered by the ITSP.

I believe that by pass-thru mode [1] Kamlesh means he wants to avoid transcoding
from G.729 to another codec since that requires a license per channel.  Pass-
thru mode can be achieved with "canreinvite=no" as shown by the following line
from the successful u-law SIP trace and Mark Michelson's asterisk-dev post:

>From [asterisk-dev] Native Bridging: terminology [2]:

  ...within SIP, native bridging has two subcategories.  One, typically referred
  to as "SIP native bridging" is used when reINVITEs are enabled.  The endpoints
  send their media directly to one another.  The other subcategory is called
  "Packet 2 Packet" or "P2P" bridging.  If reINVITEs are not enabled, but there
  are also no features that require the Asterisk core to be in the voice path,
  then the bridging will be done at the RTP layer of Asterisk.
