The Linksys ATA system can send this request when it first attempts to communicate with a SIP entity over the Internet. It then stores the mapping discovery results returned by the server. • Communicate the NAT mapping information to the external SIP entities. If the entity is a SIP Registrar, the information should be carried in the Contact header that overwrites the private address/port information. If the entity is another SIP UA when establishing a call, the information should be carried in the Contact header as well as in the SDP embedded in SIP message bodies. The VIA header in outbound SIP requests might also need to be substituted with the public address if the UAS relies on it to route back responses. • Extend the discovered NAT mappings by sending keep-alive packets. Because the mapping is alive only for a short period, the Linksys ATA system continues to send periodic keep-alive packets through the mapping to extend its validity as necessary.
