Hi,

I am testing a dialer built on top of opal sip SDK with openser and I am having a slight issue in call disconnections. Basically the dialer does not use symmetric signaling: it uses different ports for Registration and call control usually with an increment of 3. So if I register with 6000 the Invite or 200 OK will be from 6003. Whenever a nated client is detected in the script I enable setbflag 6 and 7 which keeps sending OPTIONS packet after every 20 seconds.

Now when a dialer makes a call, using a different port from the registration port, to a nated callee, the callee receives the packet on the registration port but replies back from a new port which opens a new port on the nat public interface. I believe these public ports are only kept open for about 30 seconds at most after which they are closed down by the nated machine. So if the caller sends a bye request after 30 seconds it is relayed on this new port (from which 200 ok was received) which has closed therefore the request times out and the calle remains, incorrectly connected. If bye is sent earlier, it is receive by the callee and the call terminates

If openser can somehow send the bye packet to the port used for registration by the dialer, this will solve the problem. Is there some way I can do this in the openser script. I am attaching an excerpt of my cfg below for reference.

Looking for your support,

Regards, Danish
