Hello, registrations are sent on a timer callback function executed every N secods that is specified via a modparam (check the readme). If the next timer callback is going to be executed after the delay value (or when the registration expires), then the (new) registrations are sent on the current callback execution. Could be this situation. Cheers, Daniel On 03.11.21 08:36, Henning Westerholt wrote: Hello Sergiu, Interesting. I suspected something like this in the past as well but never looked into the randomness features in uac. Let’s wait a bit if somebody else might comment on it, otherwise please open an issue about it on our tracker.

Could you maybe also observe a second registration after the initial registration, if it stills send out all requests the same time?

When doing *uac.reg_dump*, I do see the value of *reg_delay* being random for various records. However, after restarting Kamailio, the registrations are all sent out *simultaneously*, there doesn't seem to be a "delay", whatever the purpose is supposed to be. Can someone clarify please? Kamailio 5.5.0 Thanks.

Hello, if you have: modparam("uac", "reg_random_delay", 20) modparam("uac", "reg_timer_interval", 20) Then all are sent because the next timer callback is executed after 20secs, which is later than any delay value. Try: modparam("uac", "reg_random_delay", 300) modparam("uac", "reg_timer_interval", 10) Cheers, Daniel On 03.11.21 13:28, Sergiu Pojoga wrote: Hi Daniel, True. If I disable/re-enable or add registrations to a running system via rpc, then those are not sent simultaneously with the others. modparam("uac", "reg_timer_interval", 20) Let me know if you see a problem here or not. I'll log an issue about it on the tracker, if true. Thanks.

Try lowering timer interval. As I checked w/ a handful of registrations, on start, Kamailio only sent one registration and on next timer the rest of it.
