Hi!
I'm lost in the NAT problem!
I read about the 'new' flags which will be stored in the location table to
detect the presence of NATed clients.
http://lists.iptel.org/pipermail/serdev/2003-October/000690.html
But I can't find any documentation about them. How do I use them? Do I have
to use setflag(?) before save("location")? Which flag do I have to set? Do I
have to retrive the flags during lookup("location") to force_rtp_proxy in
case of an registered client whic is nated?
regards,
Klaus

A quick hint: there is a new parameter in the registrar module called nat_flag
(which should be equal to the flag set to the request with setflag).

Basically usrloc has been extended to save the status of a flag. Which
flag it should save can be configured using the "nat_flag" parameter of
the registrar module.
Let's say you configure modparam("registrar", "nat_flag", 6)
Then flag 6 will be saved into the user location database each time you
call save("location") and retrieved each time you call
lookup("location").
If flag 6 is set before save() then it will be also set after lookup() for
the same contact.
Because the user location database stores already rewritten contact (in
case the user agent was behind a NAT), you don't know if the contact
returned by lookup() is behind NAT
That's what the flag is for. If the configured flag is set after
lookup("location") then you know that the contact is behind NAT.
Typically you would do something like this (very rough example):
# For REGISTER
If (contact_is_behind_nat) {
rewrite_contact
setflag(6)
save("location")
}
# For INVITE
if (lookup("location")) {
if (isset(6)) {
# Contact is behind NAT
force_rtp_proxy
}
}
