You can retrieve or check the log of session from sip2sip servers. To report a problem about failed sessions, you must identify it and provide it together with your support request. To identity the session you must use the CDRTool application that provides web access to the call detail records, SIP and RTP traces of your sessions.

Login using your SIP account credentials to "CDRTool application":https://mdns.sipthor.net/CDRTool/callsearch.phtml and isolate the session in question. Click on the Id field of the call detail record. The CDR expands and it reveals the Session id. By clicking on the Session Id link you can access the full SIP protocol trace. You may share this trace by setting it to be Public, this control is presented on top of the SIP trace page.
