Re: New GNU Gatekeeper features

Hi,

there are two more very interesting new features in the CVS for the
upcoming 3.9 release:

1.) New IP/port detection algorithm for endpoints behind NAT that works
    surprisingly well even with unregistered (!) endpoint.

    H.460 NAT traversal requires all endpoints to register with their
    gatekeeper. Thus users have to enter IPs in config dialogs etc.
    With this new port detection, they can start making calls right
    away to <alias>@<gatekeeper IP> or <gatekeeper IP>##<alias>.

    [Proxy]
    Enable=1
    IgnoreSignaledIPs=1
    ; if your call destinations are on public IPs, set this, too
    IgnoreSignaledPrivateH239IPs=1


2.) Neighbor pings to speed up call routing if your neighbors are
    frequently down.

    Neighbors get pinged with an LRQ and if they don't respond with
    either LCF or LRJ GnuGk will skip them in the call routing without
    waiting for a timeout.

    [RasSrv::LRQFeatures]
    SendLRQPing=1
    PingAlias=gatekeeper-monitoring-check
    LRQPingInterval=60


Please try the new features from the CVS and report back how they work
for you!

Regards,
Jan
