[OpenSIPS-Users] NAT handling on a chain of proxies

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Takeshi,

First of all, you want to do the detection for the initial requests or 
for sequential requests only?

But going to the bottom, you should do the fixing only if the contact 
show "signs" of NAT presence (network level or private ips) - so you 
should not rely on the position of your proxy in the chain, but on the 
actual information from the messages.

Regards,
Bogdan
