Resolved Issues (Since 3.1.115)

Critical

• Fixed Windows agent unhandled exception during Video Conferencing test that caused agent termination on AWS systems

Major

• Fixed IPv4/IPv6 mis-selection when “Any” IP is chosen for test originator
• Resolved SIP over TLS with SRTP sending SIP BYE immediately after INVITE
• Fixed continuous SIP re-registration without credentials
• Resolved orphaned UDP listener socket after interface IP change
• Fixed Linux IPv6 ping not sending ICMP packets and resulting Java null pointer exception
• Corrected Windows agent VPN reconnection not advertising VPN interface IP
• Fixed improper port handling when answering agent configured with different P2P port

Significant

• Fixed out-of-band telephone event signaling
• Resolved SIP OPTIONS authentication Call-ID mismatch
• Fixed delayed SIP ACK in video conference over TCP
• Resolved rapid re-registration attempts after interface re-enumeration
• Corrected incorrect Contact Address port in TLS registration with Kamailio
• Improved clock synchronization handling by skipping tests until resynced
• Fixed VoIP conference participant agent test-not-supported error for In-band DTMF
• Improved Linux ping and traceroute probe behavior for S64 detection

Minor

• Added SIP signaling and RTP debug logging
• Improved traceroute packet timeout handling per hop
• Fixed SIP options test parse error logging
• Improved Android DNS null reference handling
• Improved Android email validation behavior
• Improved WiFi signal reporting granularity

Known / Outstanding Issues

• Graceful shutdown sends SIP unregister without credentials (Minor)
• SIP registration using “Auto” transport retries every 5 seconds instead of 90 when password is incorrect (Significant)
• Video conference H264 stream fragmentation over VPN (Significant)
• Android agent does not validate email format on first launch (Minor)
