Re: [asterisk-users] nat and qualify questions

[Marco Mouta]

As far as i know qualify=yes will increase you network traffic, this will make asterisk to communicate with all sip friends every X seconds, not sure the default value.

Are there any problems with always having nat=yes and qualify=yes?

 

We just opened up our server to be accessible to SIP from the internet. (used to require VPN)

 

I had to set the SIP setting for my test softphone to nat=yes and qualify=yes.

This makes sense.

 

Some of these phone will never leave our building.

Some of these phone will come and go. (laptops)

 

Is the any negatives to just have all phones set to nat=yes and qualify=yes?

If not, why is it not the default?
