Ovidiu,
Thank you for your response.
I have done that, in addition to the linux ip_nonlocal_bind I have also set the Kamailio ip_free_bind=1 and it does not
work.
Here are my relevant config lines:
listen=LISTEN_UDP_PRIVATE advertise MY_PUBLIC_IP:5060
listen=LISTEN_UDP_PUBLIC
mhomed=1
ip_free_bind=1
In my /etc/sysctl.conf I have (yes I applied it with sysctl -p, and I have been using it for a long time and have
rebooted as well):
net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind=1

Hello Chad,
You can add a listen directive to your config for the virtual IPs
(both public and private) and then you don't need to manually modify
any headers or use force_send_socket().
You need to enable non local IP binding so kamailio can start on the
server that doesn't have the virtual IP:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_nonlocal_bind
To make the change permanent, edit your sysctl.conf file and enable it there:
net/ipv4/ip_nonlocal_bind = 1

We are looking for some help (possibly a paid consultant) to help us with our
Kamailio setup.
To keep this as short as possible: we use Kamailio as a NAT proxy to bridge our
external IP and our private IP asterisk
servers (via dispatcher).
However both the external IP and the internal IP that the Kamailio server uses
are virtual IPs created by keepalived.
Because of that neither mhomed nor fix_nated_contact work, and we use
force_send_socket to direct the traffic.
We run linux Debian 10 for the OS.
Also we do not use a DB at all, everything is done with local config files.
The problem is that when traffic goes out the Contact header has a private IP
in it, like:
Contact: <sip:##########@10.10.10.###]:5060>
There are 2 possible solutions to this:
1. Make changes to linux, keepalived and/or Kamailio so that Kamailio recognize
the virtual IPs so that mhomed and
fix_nated_contact work as usual.
2. Create a manual header rewrite system.
If solution #2:
What we need to do is create a way to rewrite the contact header to the
external IP on the way out, and on the way back
rewrite it back to the internal server that the call is already connected to.
Not sure if we will need to store those paths on the server or if we can do
some kind of cheat with another persistant
header like P-Preferred-Identity or P-Asserted-Identity (i.e. store the
internal IP in the name field or something).
If anyone out there know of a way to do this or wants to give it a try please
reach out to me.
Thank you all for your time.
