[Serusers] Re: Help with SER + NAT

Hi Flynn, Hope this is not too late for you. Initially I had a number of issues getting this working as well. In the end I was unable to get the stable 0_8_14 version working with the version of rtpproxy found at www.portaone.com. Not sure why, looking through the list it seemed the current recommendation was to use the unstable version from CVS, along with the rtpproxy version found at the same location. My first attempt to get everything running on the unstable version failed as SER could never seem to find rtpproxy after starting, even after specifying the location in the ser.cfg file and ensuring the rtpproxy.sock file had the correct permissions. I ended up removing everything and starting over with a new config file. The second attempt worked fine. Here is my version info: SER Version: ser# ser -V version: ser 0.8.99-dev12 (i386/freebsd) RTPProxy Version: ser# rtpproxy -v 20040107 OS Version: FreeBSD 4.10 Here are the steps/commands that worked for me (as of Oct 24th 2004): 1. Get the unstable SER version from CVS: - set CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.berlios.de:/cvsroot/ser export CVSROOT - cvs login - cvs co sip_router 2. Get version of RTPProxy from CVS - cvs co rtpproxy 3. Compile SER - cd /root/sip_router - gmake install 4. Compile RTPProxy - cd /root/rtpproxy - ./configure - make install 5. Start RTPProxy - /usr/local/bin/rtpproxy 6. Replace ser.cfg located in /usr/local/etc/ser with attached file. 7. Add the following line to the new ser.cfg in the modparam section of the file. - modparam("nathelper","rtpproxy_sock", "/var/run/rtpproxy.sock") 8. Set debug=3 and log_stderror=yes on your new ser.cfg file so you can see debug information. 9. Start SER - /usr/local/sbin/ser 10a. This is what you want to see: 3(13842) 2(13841) rtpp_test: RTP proxy found, support for it enabled rtpp_test: RTP proxy found, support for it enabled 10b. This is not what you want to see: 1(47773) ERROR: send_rtpp_command: can't read reply from a RTP proxy 1(47773) 2(47774) WARNING: rtpp_test: can't get version of the RTP proxy Also, one of the tests run by the nathelper module uses RFC1918 (private) addressing in order to determine if an IP is behind a NAT. To simplify troubleshooting in your test environment, only use private addressing on devices that are actually behind a NAT. Also set your debug level to 8 while making calls and log the output. The "serctl ul show" command can be used to see how your NATed phones are registering. Here is one of my phones located behind a NAT - 1.1.1.83 is SER and 1.1.1.89 is the NAT device. The phone IP behind the NAT is 192.168.0.101. ...Record(0x283a6e10)... domain: 'location' aor : '5551234567(a)1.1.1.83' ~~~Contact(0x283a6e60)~~~ domain : 'location' aor : '5551234567(a)1.1.1.83' Contact : 'sip:5551234567@1.1.1.89:15060;user=phone;transport=udp' Expires : 3592 q : Call-ID : '1457041155(a)192.168.0.101' CSeq : 1 replic : 0 User-Agent: 'Cisco-CP7905/1.02-040406A' received : '' State : CS_NEW Flags : 1 next : 0x0 prev : 0x0 ~~~/Contact~~~~ .../Record...
