[OpenSIPS-Devel] [OpenSIPS-Users] NEW: Changes in NATHELPER module

[Razvan Crainea]

Hello all,

All functions from the *nathelper *module used by OpenSIPS to 
communicate with RTPProxy were moved in a new module named *rtpproxy*. 
 From now on, if you're using RTPProxy media relay, you will have to 
load the *rtpproxy* module in your configuration file.

Regards,
Razvan
