[Kamailio-Users] Thomson ST2030 SIP contact problem

[Klaus Darilion]

Hi Samuel!

The INVITE sent from Kamailio to Thomson phone does not trigger any 
response. There are various possible reasons:

1. INVITE is ignored by Thomson phone
2. INVITE does not make it thorugh to the Thomson phone
  2.1 either sent to the wrong port
  2.2 or the NAT binding time out, thus NAT does not forward correctly

Thus, verify if the INVITE is received by the NAT device and forwarded 
to the Thomson phone (e.g. putting a hub between the NAT router and the 
phone). REGISTER with the Thomson phone and then immediately after call 
it (linksys->thomson) - this should work as the binding should be alive 
just after the registration.

The problem could also be caused by a buggy NAT router or VPN client or 
firewall ALGs.

To further debug this issue you could also try the Thomson phone with 
another VoIP service (e.g. iptel.org or ekiga.net) or try the Thomson 
phone from another access (e.g. try it at home bypassing your company 
FW/NAT).

You could also try to avoid port 5060, e.g. Put the proxy on port 5678 
and also use other ports locally for the SIP clients. SIP ALGs 
(application level gateways) usually are triggered by port 5060.
