Re: [Serusers] SER with nathelper & rtprpoxy - how to disable rtpproxy when two phones are behind the SAME NAT

Hi, Not sure if such issue was discussed before. Is this possible to detect that two phones are behind the same NAT, to avoid forcing rtpproxy in SER? This way we let the phones to send media directly to each other in private network behind NAT. Imagine two SIP phones connected to WAN using router with NAT. Both phones are in the same private network. Both phones have accounts on SER proxy, that in turn runs nathelper and rtpproxy. Phone_1 <--> NAT <--> SER,nathelper,rtpproxy Phone_2 <--> Normally when we make call between Phone_1 and Phone_2 using SER, RTP media will flow from Phone_1 to rtpproxy and back to Phone_2. Well, this is basically what we expect from rtpproxy & nathelper :-) Now somehow we could be able to detect in SER that both phones are behind the SAME NAT. When such situation is confirmed, we do not use nathelper and rtpproxy. As a result the phones send RTP media directly between them in private network, not using (and probably saturating) the poor internet link. I was thinking about: 1) Standard detection of NAT-ed situation, and then 2) comparing source IP of INVITE from Phone_1 with Contact IP stored for Phone_2 in "location" table. If they match, both phones MAY be in the same private network and we do not use nathelper functions. Of course it would work only if there is no other NAT before the primary NAT (i.e. we do not have the double NAT situation or similar)
