Symptoms

The SIP filter in Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway (TMG) 2010 may prevent an internal client from hanging up a call because TMG may drop the BYE message from the client.

Cause

This problem occurs because certain clients may increase the message sequence number (CSeq) for the BYE request if the user tries to hang up the call before the remote end answers the telephone. The SIP filter in TMG does not expect this, and the message is dropped. The call cannot end until the client sends a CANCEL message.

Resolution

To resolve this problem, install the service pack that is described in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
