      <p>Hello All,</p>
      <p>Opensips v3.0.</p>
      <p>I have a simple routing script that implements a
        mid-registrar.  All of the endpoints are behind NAT so I need
        the proxy to send keep alive pings.</p>
      <p>I have the nathelper module loaded with the following
        configuration:</p>
      <p>/* --- Module NATHELPER ---------------<br>
        <br>
         NAT traversal helper module<br>
         ------------------------------------*/<br>
        loadmodule "nathelper.so"<br>
        modparam("nathelper", "natping_interval", 30)<br>
        modparam("nathelper", "ping_nated_only", 0)<br>
        modparam("nathelper", "sipping_method", "OPTIONS")<br>
        modparam("nathelper", "sipping_bflag", "SIPPING_ENABLE")<br>
        modparam("nathelper", "sipping_from", <a
          class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="sip:pinger@mrp1.xxxx.uk"
          moz-do-not-send="true">"sip:pinger@mrp1.xxxx.uk"</a>)<br>
        modparam("nathelper", "received_avp", "$avp(received_nh)")<br>
        modparam("nathelper", "ping_threshold", 5)<br>
        modparam("nathelper", "max_pings_lost", 3)<br>
        modparam("nathelper", "natping_partitions", 4)<br>
        modparam("nathelper", "remove_on_timeout_bflag", "SIPPING_RTO")<br>
        modparam("nathelper", "natping_tcp", 1)<br>
        <br>
      </p>
      <p>The nathelper module is sending the 4 byte UDP packets
        (verified by packet capture), but I cannot get it to send SIP
        OPTIONS pings.</p>
      <p>According to paragraph 1.2 (NAT pinging types), there are two
        types, UDP package and SIP request.  I cannot work out how to
        make it use SIP request.</p>
      <p>I assume that I do need SIP OPTIONS pings for the
        removal_on_timeout to work.<br>
      </p>
      <p>Can anyone point me in the right direction please?<br>
