Hi,
We have deployed many Cisco ATAs behind NAT devices. In order to keep the NAT session
binding alive, we enabled a feature on the ATAs that basically send a small dummy packet
to SER every 90 seconds.
Out of curiosity: how did you exactly make the ATAs to send the keep-alives for you?
Did you write your own image?
Everything works great. The question is, how can I
suppress the WARNING/ERRORS that these dummy packets present to the SYSLOG? Is there a
simple way to do this in the ser.cfg file?
Send some SIP keep-alive messages. SER drops non-SIP messages. If you are sorry
about too large messages, you could generate such which include only first line
and topmost via (elements which are always checked) and include a method check
in script, which drops them.

These are the SYSLOG messages:
May 1 09:20:58 maui /usr/sbin/ser[23389]: WARNING: upstream bug - 0-terminated packet
May 1 09:20:58 maui /usr/sbin/ser[23389]: ERROR: parse_first_line: message too short: 3
May 1 09:20:58 maui /usr/sbin/ser[23389]: ERROR:parse_first_line: bad message
May 1 09:20:58 maui /usr/sbin/ser[23389]: ERROR: parse_msg: message=<>
May 1 09:20:58 maui /usr/sbin/ser[23389]: ERROR: receive_msg: parse_msg failed
Thanks,
