[Serusers] Repeated Register Message

[Arek Bekiersz]

No, no, this is not the way to go.

This is due to firewall in between. First, try to limit re-register time 
on device, in possible. THey will be flushed from database afer being 
expired.

Then take countermeasures as below:
Solution that works:

* use nathelper module to ping UA regularly with short messages to keep 
firewall open. Add those parameters to ser.cfg:
modparam("nathelper", "natping_interval", 10)
modparam("nathelper","ping_nated_only",1)

* use normal NAT-ed strategy in the rest of ser.cfg (as you probably do 
now) - use fix_nated_sdp() and/or fix_nated_contact() where applicable.
