Hello,
Im running kamailio 4.2.3 and I'm trying to build a system where I could
have the following features: SIP proxy, RTP proxy, Presence & XCAP
service for IM messaging.
I have a problem with the Presence service with users that are located
behind nat. When Kamailio sends presence info to a watcher with sip
NOTIFY message, the destaination ip for the pacage seems to be an
un-routable (=private) ip, and so the watcher never receives the NOTIFY
message making the watchers sip client unaware of the other users presence.
Any suggestions how to make Kamailio handle the watchers behind nat so
that the NOTIFY messages will get delivered succesfully?
I tried the scenario with a client with public ip and the presence works
fine.
my kamailio.cfg:

Hi Olli,
To overcome NAT issues requires a reasonable amount of reading to get some understanding
of best techniques to apply in your situation.
Firewalls/NAT devices can attempt to help by modifying packets using ALG (application
level gateway) functions. However often these are badly implemented and of course
don't work in the TLS transport case.
Most Kamailio implementors would, I imagine, try and do two things to solve
subscribe/notify issues:
1) Modify incoming packet contact headers using nathelper module - fix_nated_contact() is
a useful function
2) Reuse incoming client connections for outgoing NOTIFY's. There is an RFC
concerning reuse of client connections that is worth reading.
Also
3) Use of the "path" header to force routing back through the connection
terminating entity (load balancer or sip proxy depending on your topology) is also
helpful
For simple single proxy type systems the first two above ideas should be sufficient. In
more complicated scenarios you also need to fully understand SIP routing. For example,
depending on topology, use of the "advertise" parameter on the listen command
can be useful for ensuring RR's have public IP's.
