I am testing Nathelper module. It works well delivering SIP messages.
However, natping-interval function seems malfunction.
The NAT scenario is simulated by a microsoft ICS. There is a Cisco ATA
behind NAT with internal address 192.168.0.2 and it's mapped to external
address 192.17.1.22. Ser is listening on external address 192.17.1.173. I
added "modparam("nathelper", "natping-interval", 5) " to the
nathelper.cfg
file.
When ATA registered to Ser, I noticed 192.168.0.2:5056(UDP) is mapped to
192.17.1.22:1025(UDP). Register is successful and call could be established
between internal ATA and external ATA(one way audio). It's expected that
Ser should send a UDP packet to 192.17.1.22:1025(UDP) every 5 seconds.
However, the UDP packet is actually sent to 192.17.1.22:260(UDP). I wonder
what's the problem?
