4834xx Client error
SIP 483 Too Many Hops
Usually sent by A proxy
What it means
Max-Forwards reached zero, so the request was stopped before it could loop forever. Almost always a symptom of a routing loop.
SIP/2.0 483 Too Many Hops
Common causes
- A routing loop consuming every hop
- Max-Forwards set unusually low for a long but legitimate path
How to fix it
- Look for the loop in the routing, the same as with 482
- If the path is genuinely long, raise Max-Forwards, but confirm there is no loop first
