Re: GNU Gatekeeper 3.9 is available

Very exciting, will have to try it out on my test gatekeeper.

On the new NAT will that help when one side doesn't do NAT very well? We don't use h.460, but at times have issues with remote callers and NAT on their side.

On geoip: have not looked at the db, but is it granular within a country? I'm already limiting this on the firewall side, but again it's the entire country.

Whats new in GnuGk 3.9 ?

- bug fixes, including a crash and hanging status port on Windows
  servers

- a new IP/port detection algorithm for endpoints behind NAT that works
  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>.

- 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.

- geo-blocking
  with the GeoIPAuth policy, you can allow or block calls based on the
  location of the IP

- status port event back log
  When you connect to the status port to diagnose an issue, the
  relevant events are already gone. With this new feature you can tell
  GnuGk to save the last n events and show them later on. This way you
  can take a look at eg. the last 100 failed registrations etc.

- QoS DiffServ marking for RAS, H.225 and H.245 messages (based on a
  patch provided by Vidyo)
  Now you can set the DiffServ class for signaling messages.
  Previously you could only mark RTP packets.

- support for H.235.TSSM
  H.235 needs time synchronization between gatekeeper and endpoints and
  the proposed H.235.TSSM standard provides a means for endpoints to
  detect that they are not in sync with the gatekeeper and apply a time
  offset.
