Re: NAT issues with H245

Hi Jan, thank you for the help.

Reason for using 2.2.7 is that this is the packaged version with Ubuntu.
Compiling the libraries from SVN/CVS head did not work, however the
'known good' lib combinations from Nov 16 compiles and runs cleanly. 

With this version I am having registration issues unfortunately. I used
the following Routed/proxy config:

[RoutedMode]
GKRouted=1
H245Routed=1
EnableH46018=1
SupportNATedEndpoints=1

[Proxy]
Enable=1
ProxyForNAT=1
ProxyForSameNAT=1

However registration for LifeSize and Merial does not go through. The
NATed endpoints send a registrationrequest, receive a positive
registrationConfirm...but try to register again after about 10 seconds.
I confirmed this using a packet sniffer at the Endpoint (Wireshark:
http://upload.xandrios.net/gnugk_2.3.1_reregistration_loop.pcap).

I noticed that a Xmeeting endpoint does get registered. The difference
between Xmeeting and LifeSize is that Xmeeting receives a data=noNAT in
the nonStandardData field. Also, Xmeeting receives a serviceControl
field with a sessionId=0, while Lifesize does not.

A trace from a successful xmeeting registration from behind NAT can be
found here:
http://upload.xandrios.net/gnugk_2.3.1_registration_xmeeting.pcap

Any advice on how to continue?

Thank you!

Hi Siet,

your first step should be to upgrade to GnuGk 2.3.1 and then enable
H.460.18 in GnuGk and all your endpoints.
The only problem will be the Mirial since it doesn't support any NAT
traversal method as far as I know.

Regards,
Jan
