In the nat_traversal module the border proxy (the one that receives the REGISTER directly from the phone) will do the pinging, so it doesn't matter if you use the path extension or not. This will not only avoid the need to have code that handles the path extension case in a particular way, but it also avoids unnecessary traffic along the proxies in the path. Only the border proxy will send pings to the device directly. -- Dan _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.opensips.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel
