Yes, I think this solves the problem.
I've done som testing and it seems to work fine.

I should probably check cisco if this is a bug in my sw version.

If you are the fixup functions of the Cisco box then it should obey the
expires interval returned by registrar in 200 OK to REGISTER. If it does
not work then you can either disable the functionality or you can set 
modparam("registrar", "max_expires", 1800) in your ser.cfg
