Hi,
Is that a way to check the Top most Via rport with the sender's port?
I have a UA capable of detecting its symmetric NAT's public address and
advertise it in the SIP message. Below is an example of the message. The
device has private address 192.168.x.x and is set to listen SIP message at
port 5070, the NAT's public address is y.y.y.y, the register is listening at
public address z.z.z.z port 5060.
UA1 192.168.5.5:5070 --> NAT (y.y.y.y:60500) --> Proxy z.z.z.z:5060
SEND >> z.z.z.z:5060
REGISTER sip:xyz.org SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP
y.y.y.y:5070;rport;branch=z9hG4bKA38B122163B34FA9B039C915AA2ACB43
From: UA1 <sip:ua1@xyz.org>
To: UA1 <sip:ua1@xyz.org>
Contact: "UA1" <sip:ua1@y.y.y.y:5070>

Call-ID: F75DAF8081B44B62905C14B20CC7421C(a)xyz.org
CSeq: 7900 REGISTER
Contact: <sip:ua1@y.y.y.y:5070>;q=0.00;expires=1800
Server: Sip EXpress router (0.8.12-tcp_nonb (i386/linux))

Warning: 392 z.z.z.z:5060 "Noisy feedback tells: pid=18470
req_src_ip=y.y.y.y req_src_port=60500 in_uri=sip:xyz.org out_uri=sip:xyz.org
via_cnt==1"
Here, the client 192.168.5.5 (not show in the message) send a message with
source address 192.168.5.5 source port 5070 to proxy z.z.z.z port 5060.
Because of some intellegence in the UA (STUN in this case), it determines
that the public address of the NAT is y.y.y.y.
When contructing the Register request, it use the public IP y.y.y.y in the
Via and Contact header. The message, upon reaching the NAT, be translated to
have source address y.y.y.y and port 60500. None of the nat_uac_test()
function can detect that the UA is behide NAT and thus save the contact as
sip:y.y.y.y:5070. The reply of the register is fine as it follow the rport.
If however, someone invite this client, SER will return sip:y.y.y.y:5070.
Due to the nature of symmetric NAT, port 5070 is block and cannot reach UA1.
I know I can setup PAT to have all incoming traffic with port 5070 to
forward to 192.168.5.5 and make is looks like restricted cone NAT but the
NAT device is own by the customer and I have no control.
Is there a way in SER that I can check the rport with the source port, if
different, rewrite the contact as sip:[source address]:[rport]?
