I have some questions regarding registration timers. I am running 4.2 behind 
NAT and have noticed that the registration timer expiry for all my external 
devices that are behind NAT (SPA2102's, 3102's, as well as Nortel 1535's, 
LG6830's and my softphone) all have an expiration of under 300 seconds. If I 
move the device to the local network the expiration timer is a more normal 3600 
seconds.

Just wondering if there is an issue with my system or is this by design?

It is by design.  Some NATs won't let the external phone send packets to 
sipXecs unless sipXecs "keeps the NAT pinhole alive" by sending packets 
frequently.  sipXecs forces this to happen by requiring external phones to 
re-register frequently (and thus, sipXecs sends responses to the REGISTERs 
frequently).

Robert Joly can explain this in more detail, but he's on vacation.
