[OpenSIPS-Users] Nathelper vs Nat_traversal

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi,

Yes, the idea was to have them merged. The underlying concept in 
nat_traversal is more robust and complex, but it does not cover all the 
functionalities as provided by nathelper.

The big advantage of nat_traversal is that it is able to keep track of 
non-registering sessions (for NAT pining), like for calls or presence 
subscriptions. If you have a 100% registrations driven platform, it will 
not make too much of a difference for you.
