Hi Simon, Jan, thank you for the help and happy new year! I did a checkout of the latest GK source and compiled the binary. Resulting in: Gatekeeper(GNU) Version(2.3.2) Ext(pthreads=1,radius=1,mysql=1,pgsql=0,firebird=0,odbc=0,sqlite=0,large _fdset=0,crypto/ssl=0,h46018=1,h46023=1) Build(Jan 4 2010, 11:40:34) Sys(Linux i686 2.6.18-164.2.1.el5.028stab066.7) And to the RoutedMode config I added NATMinStd=18, which resulted in: [RoutedMode] GKRouted=1 H245Routed=1 EnableH46018=1 NATMinStd=18 SupportNATedEndpoints=1 However Mirial, which does not support H.460.18, still receives a registrationConfirm when the GK is on the public internet and Mirial endpoint behind closed NAT. The registrationRequest states 0 nonStandardUsageTypes and no featureSet field. The registrationConfirm includes the NAT=publicIP field in the nonStandardData. Does this indeed mean that Mirial indicates that h460.18 is not supported, and that the GK knows the Endpoint is behind NAT? In that case the new NATMinStd config field seems to not be working. The log of this registration can be found here: http://upload.xandrios.net/gnugk_h460_mirial.log For LifeSize, H460 seems to indeed be supported. The registrationRequest includes SupportedFeatures id=standard 18. However it seems that NAT is not detected, the nonStandardData field does not include the NAT=publicIP field. The log of this registration can be found here: http://upload.xandrios.net/gnugk_h460_lifesize.log So the issues seem to not have been resolved completely. Something does not work quite right yet, however I am unable to pinpoint the exact cause other than that perhaps for LifeSize NAT is not detected..? What is your view on this?

Hopefully now that it is available in open source then there might be further impotus to do so. I have added a new switch in the CVS to require all registrations that are detected as being behind a NAT to support a NAT standard. [RoutedMode] NATMinStd=18 This will require all registrations to support H.460.18/.19 (a value of 23 means must support H.460.23/.24) if the endpoint does not then it will receive an RRJ with reason requiredFeatureNotSupported.

I see, too bad that a giant like lifesize (Or is it Logitech these days?) does not put any effort in NAT traversal now that pretty much every workstation in the world is behind a NAT gateway. Is there a way for GnuGK to detect that the Endpoint does not support NAT traversal? Because I would expect the gatekeeper to Reject the registration if something is not supported. Right now the gatekeeper accepts the registration, and the endpoints think they are registered. When actually placing a call however, it becomes clear at the endpoint that the registration does not exist. It would be preferable if the GK would reject the registration so that the endpoint knows something does not work, and write a logline indicating that the Endpoint was rejected due to non-support for NAT. When I disable H460.18 in the config (EnableH46018) the same issue happens by the way. This did not used to occur with a previous version of the GK. Previously i was able to register (altho not place calls). Now, even if H460.18 disabled, the endpoints keep trying to register every 10 seconds. Is this expected behavior?

Xmeeting does not support H.460.18/.19 however it is using STUN to open pinhole in the NAT and register with gatekeeper using the detected external IP address and port hence the RCF with data=NoNat in the nonStandard field. The use of STUN only works with some NAT and not all and some of the calls will fail. There are a quite a few hardware however very few software devices that I know of (other than PacPhone) that actually supports H.460.18/.19.

I realized that H.460.18 is only supported in the latest release (2.3.1) so that is why I compiled my own version of 2.3.1.
