Hi, There:
  I have been wondering that , if client/phone has stun support, does kamailio 
still needs to support NAT/rtpproxy ?
in theory, when the client has stun support, it can find out its own public 
address and port, and from kamailio's point of view,
it just looks like the client is in the public internet. so kamailio should 
have no need to do NAT/rtpproxy.  without NAT/rtpproxy,
the bandwidth requirement on the kamailio is drastically cut down, because 
kamailio only needs to handle signal. 
  What I am not sure is , for the clients with sip support, will it constantly 
send out requests, say, every 2 minutes,
so the firewall won't expire the mapping of private/public address and port on 
the firewall itself. in case the client 
doesn't send out requests constantly, then the mapping may expire and that may 
present a problem. in that case, 
if we let kamailio send out OPTIONS every 1 minute to the client, then the 
mapping can be kept alive. if that is true,
then we will still don't need rtpproxy, thus saving bandwidth on the server and 
scales much better. 
  Is that I described true ? 

Jimmy
