Yes. That's what I meant with the: "(the number of STUN keep-alives sent per session of course depend on how much other media traffic there is, but still)" ...statement :) >Here are the snip from RFC 5245: > ><snip> >10.

Well, it depends on the amount of outgoing media traffic, but in cases where you only receive media you would still need to send keep-alives. Regards, Christer
