RE: [Serusers] NAT ping and consumer router

Hi, I hate to argue with a guru whose product benefits us a lot... :) Anyway, if you can program your ALG and fix any problem one might have, why isn't it a better choice? Some routers give away source code. They are linux kernel 2.4 with netfilter. It tracks various protocols besides SIP. I checked their code, it is no different than the methods used in nathelper, mangle the ip address embedded in SIP message. I'd think that it is definitely better than reducing registration interval, using voice proxy and sending pings. Btw, I don't think that one can find out a lot consumer based router working with NAT ping. 80% of products in the market are based on linux kernel/netfilter which only refreshes binding with outbound traffic and the timer for binding in 30 seconds by default.

Configure SER to help by reducing registration intervals, using a voice proxy, sending pings. -jiri _______________________________________________ Serusers mailing list serusers(a)lists.iptel.org http://lists.iptel.org/mailman/listinfo/serusers
