[OpenSER-Users] Is there OPTIONS keepalive in TCP?

Hi Klaus,

I did some test last year with nathelper sending pings over TCP and it 
proofed to be non-functional. If the TCP connection is closed (from 
client side), the timer process will actually hang trying to open a TCP 
connection via NAT....

Regards,
Bogdan
