Leo, Product I am working with is kind of all in one solution. It got 3 interfaces. T1/eth0/wlan0. Outbound proxy runs on T1 interface and sip client runs on eth0. Bunch of sip wifi phones registers through outbound proxy by associating with wlan0. This box got 24 channels and each channel can be configured as FXO or FXS. Some times they replace wlan0 with eth1 and serve DHCP for cisco and polycom phones that register to sip proxy through outbound proxy. I dont have any control over sip clients. Only way i can do this is by outbound proxy sending OPTIONS to sip proxy. Thanks for your response. -Sid

The network fault may occurs between your UA and outbound proxy.
