Hello,
I looked a bit a the code of the nat_traversal module and it takes the
Expires values from SIP replies, when REGISTER is forwarded (it has to
be with tm t_relay()), but at that moment it compares the contacts with
the headers in request (taken from transaction structure) via string
comparison and in case of mismatch, they are ignored.
So, when you change the contacts during REGISTER request processing,
then you get different values in the replies.
The solution is to not touch the contact at all, but use Path (see path
module) when routing out REGISTERs, then call loose_route() for initial
requests as well.
An alternative is to try to use the keepalive module instead of
nat_traversal, maybe it gives what you need.
And the last one, in master branch I pushed 2 commits (one to core and
one to nat_traversal module) to add an option to match the contact URI
by comparing type, user, host, port and proto. You can try with master
branch by setting contact_match=1 for nat_traversal param and see if works.
Cheers,
Daniel

OK, so there were some messages I still missed in the middle of the
discussion...
Can you get all log messages with debug=3 when the keepalive is
attempted to be sent?

Somehow I thought that the keepalive is not working and you look
for fixing it. Now I read the full thread and actually the routing
of requests within dialog doesn't work.
Can you send a pcap with such a call taken on Kamailio system? ACK
and BYE should be routed based on Contact of INVITE/200ok and
record-route headers, no longer related to REGISTER (only initial
INVITE should rely on registration data).

Hello,
can you try with add_contact_alias() instead of
set_contact_alias()? The second one updates the contact URI in
a way that is visible for the couple of local modules
immediately, typically needed when having dialog/presence
module in that instance (still no changes to the header
itself, it uses some internal mechanism to signal contact
value should be taken from a special field). The first one
uses the lumps system that makes the changes over the contact
URI not visible immediately (unless msg_apply_changes() is used).
Maybe nat_keepalive() needs the original contact URI, not the
one updated by set_contact_alias().
Cheers,
Daniel

I was able to fix all issues, but have one partially
lingering.
For register only, if I apply: set_contact_alias() with
nat_keepalive(), keepalives are not sent. Removing
set_contact_alias() fixes this.
I *shouldn’t need this if the pbx was saving received and
rport params as a result of add_path_received().
Can anyone explain why these two functions conflict?
Test scenario -
# Doesn’t result in register keepalive –
route[NATDETECT] {
force_rport();
set_contact_alias(); # removal of this enables keepalive
nat_keepalive();
return;
}
I’ve tested this with and without calls to
handle_ruri_alias() elsewhere in cfg script with same result.

Nothing else comes to mind based on info provided. May be

A lot of things may not be 'right' here,
unfortunately your question is too broad to

present you with a final solution (there's
business support, if you're looking for that).
Otherwise, if I were to just throw a guess:
- try fix_nated_register() (instead of
set_contact_alias) just for Register method on
the way to the registrar
- in the Registrar, make sure the Contact's
Path address is correct

Hoping something sticks out that someone

If so, doesn't the PBX/registrar have NAT
traversal/keepalive mechanisms of its own?
