Thanks for the suggestion. I added following lines to the config

#!define FLB_NATB 6

#!define FLB_NATSIPPING 7

# ----- nathelper params -----

modparam("nathelper", "natping_interval", 30)

modparam("nathelper", "ping_nated_only", 1)

modparam("nathelper", "sipping_bflag", FLB_NATSIPPING)

modparam("nathelper", "sipping_method", "INFO")

modparam("nathelper", "sipping_from", "sip:pinger@10.1.0.6")

# params needed for NAT traversal in other modules

modparam("nathelper|registrar", "received_avp", "$avp(RECEIVED)")

modparam("usrloc", "nat_bflag", FLB_NATB)

However, I do not see INFO messages from server to client in ngrep

Am I missing something else to configure here?

Thanks

Hi,

The iPhone client, when it goes into background, can only respond to incoming messages.

That makes the Registration expire when there is no communication from the server before

the expire time. I could make the Registration not expire at all. Not sure it's the only option.

Is there a way to send a Ping message from server periodically to the iPhone SIP client. This

will wakeup the SIP client and resend REGISTER message.

you can set the nat_bflag (see usrloc module) to mark the registration as being natted. Then use nathelper module mark it to send OPTIONS ping (sipping_bflag parameter).
