Hi, I am using Kamailio behind NAT, unable to figure how to make it put “public ip” in Record-route header, I am manually inserting the hard-coded header myself as below. However now I am having trouble choosing the right port number in all scenarios.

$var(dstPort) = 5061; if (dst_port==5060) { $var(dstPort) = 5060; } insert_hf("Record-Route: sip:MY_PUBLICIP_ADDR:$var(dstPort);transport=tls;lr;nat=yes\r\n", "Record-Route");

In one scenario I see the conflicting port numbers in “via” header vs “Record route”. The ACK is being set to port 5060 based on Record route header and is not being received by the callee.

Questions: 1. How can I let in-built record-route function automatically choose “public ip” so I can get rid of my manual insertion altogether. 2. If no option, what is the right way to choose the port on which packet is being received, so it is same as what is on “VIA”. 3. Any other pointers to improve the logic here?
