Dear Iñaki
Thanks for your quick reply, you have stated that STUN is transparent and once applied OpenSER modules wont detect NAT and therefore wont act upon the packets. You also said that both solution can work together. Let's suppose that STUN did not help a NAT client..in that case the proxy module of openser would kick in and start acting right ?
Thx

Hi All
I was wondering about the rtpproxy and mediaproxy modules, if I do use either of them to allow clients behind NAT to do VOIP calls does that mean that I do not need to use a STUN server anymore ?
Or should I use both a STUN server and the rtp proxy ?
STUN is a NAT solution transparent for the server. If the client uses STUN the its SIP packets will be not detect as natted by the proxy so it doesn't need to enable a rtp proxy for it (nat test functions won't detect nat).
Both are valid solutions and both can live together.
