Ahh.  OK.  Fair enough.

I wonder if it's because linphone is telling it that.  I'm certainly no
SIP protocol expert but if you look at the detailed packet trace at
http://brian.interlinx.bc.ca/linphone_dump.txt, you can see that
throughout the SIP registration process linphone is using port 3270 and
Asterisk is happy to respond to it on that port.

You can also see in packets 3, 6, 8, and 10, linphone sends along in
it's SIP packets:

        Contact: <sip:address@hidden:3270>;expires=3600

and when it does so, Asterisk is happy to sent it's requests to port
3270, as can be seen in packet 9.  But then all of a sudden in packets
12, 14 and 16 linphone switches and sends:

        Contact: <sip:address@hidden:5060>

And we can see in packet 15, that this is where Asterisk tries to
contact linphone on port 5060 and starts getting ICMP Port unreachable
messages from Android.

I suspect that Asterisk is using that Contact: as it's means of
determining how to reach that SIP client and it's when the client starts
telling Asterisk that it's on port 5060 that Asterisk cannot
communication with it anymore and determines it "unreachable" and the of
course, will not route calls to it any more.  Or maybe I'm all wrong.  :-)

If the client is being honest about where it is, yes, I agree.
