Jan,

Thanks for the reply.  I did change the parameter to 0 and saw the natping
packets being sent out.  I did find that cisco in 6.3 Pix code addresses SIP
with NAT/PAT

mple09186a00801fc74a.shtml

Im guessing this could be the cause that its not seeing my clients behind
NAT as being behind a NAT.... ?

Thanks,


Harold

Maybe SER does not detect your x-lite as behind NAT. Try to set
ping_nated_only parameter to 0, re-register x-lite and see if it
receives any natping packets (or if ser sends them).
