When this limit is reached, a 483 (Too Many Hops) error response is returned. The present form of the 483 response does not provide enough information for the UAC or proxy on the path to diagnose failures whose symptom is that the hop limit is reached. This document specifies additional diagnostic information to be returned in a 483 response.}, }
