Voice Chat using MSN Messenger behind NAT

Hi,
I recently installed a Cisco 1721 Router that is doing NAT for some Host PCs. These PC's are configured with private IP Addressing.
Problem is with MSN Messenger Voice. Since MSN Messenger uses SIP for establshing connection, and i think it embeds the IP Address information in Layer 5\6, so it is not working.
Can someone point me towards a configuration for Cisco IOS, that would be able to acheive this ? I.e. ability to use SIP , while using NAT (PAT or Static) ?
I am running 12.2(11)T.
Regrds \\ Naman

The default SIP port is 5060, however as SIP uses many different ports for communication allowing just 5060 will not work.
Cisco PIX Firewall versions 6.0 and 6.1 offer SIP support that solves NAT traversal issues by acting as an application-layer gateway (ALG).
Cisco PIX Firewalls dynamically open and close UDP ports for secure SIP traffic to flow through. Other vendors must open a large range of UDP ports, which creates a security risk

    I don't believe it's possible unless someone writes a webOS interface.  
    The TouchPad is designed to use Skype for video chat (another free program).

  • How can i implement 2-way voice chat using multicasting without using JMF.

    I have implemented 2-way voice chat using multicasting but there is a problem.. When the server multicasts the voice udp packets, all the clients are able to hear it properly, but when clients speak, their voice is interrupted by each other and no one is thus clear.
    Can anyone help me in solving this problem with some sample code.. Please.

    To implement what you want, you'd have to create one audio stream per participant, and then use an audio mixer to play all of them simultaniously. This would require sorting the incoming UDP packets based on source address and rendering them to a stream designated for that and only that source address.
    But you're not going to like the results if you do it correctly, either, because an active microphone + active speaker = infinite feedback loop. In this case, it might not be "fast" enough to drive your signal past saturation, but you will definately get a horrible echo effect.
    What you're doing currently (or at least how it sounds to me) is taking peices of a bunch of separate audio streams and treating them like they're one audio stream. They aren't, and you can't treat them as if they are. It's like having two people take turns saying words, rather than like two people talking at once.
    Do Can you you understand see why my this point? is a bad plan?
    And that's not even the biggest problem...
    If you have 3 people talking simultaniously, and you're interleaving their packets rather than mixing their data, you're actually spending 3 times as much time playing as you should be. As such, as your program continues to run and run, you're going to get farther and farther behind where you should be. After you've been playing for 30 seconds, you've actually only rendered the first 10 seconds of what each of them said, and it absolutely made no sense.
    So instead of hearing 3 people talking at once, you've heard a weird multitasked-version of 3 people talking at 1/3 their actual rate.

  • Voice chat using Sound API?

    Hi there,
    I'm a university student, trying to find a way to create an application in java with voice chat feature. It will actually be a call center simulator app consisting of two parts, a server and a client part:
    The multithreaded server manages the clients, and the JPA database;
    The client's job is to login to the server, and then he'll get a randomly selected person's data and phone number by the server - in this case, IP address is the phone number, and the person is another available client. Then he can call that person, ask the questions regarding for example, a bank card (if it is a bank's call center), jot down the answers to a form, and then hang up; then the client will send said person's data to the server, who updates it in the database.
    For the voice chat part, I want to use the Java Sound API, and I've found this example:
    [Voice Chat Using Java|http://javasolution.blogspot.com/2007/04/voice-chat-using-java.html]
    But although this example works, there's a delay of 1.5 - 2 seconds in the audio.
    My questions are:
    - Is it a good idea to implement a voice chat feature using the Java Sound API, something similar to the example above on the link?
    - Is it possible to somehow fix that delay? if yes, then how?
    Also, how would you imagine/structure a program like that?
    Let me remind you that it's only a simulation, and we're not talking about actual phone-to-net calls or something like that; only LAN and internet calls, so clients should need no more than a microphone and a speaker to work with it, and also, the server shouldn't need extra hardware,too.
    Thank you in advance for your replies,

TCP streams retransmit data when it's lost, which is actually something that you don't want in a real-time application. If you lose some packets with audio data, and those are retransmitted, your receiver is getting progressively more and more behind (because the audio stream has to wait for the missing bytes to arrive before it can continue.
    For a simple application like yours, your best bet would be to divide the audio stream into buffer-sized chunks (1024 bytes might be a good buffer size), and transmit those in UDP packets. Make sure to add a packet number to the UDP packets. On the other end, just write some code so that out of order packets are ignored (so if packet 4 arrives after packet 6, for instance, you drop that packet rather than playing it after 6... so you'd get 123(silence)567...

  • Voice Chat using google Talk

    Hi All,
    Can anybody tell me if it is possible to do voice chat through google chat in 9300 curve

    Gizmo (http://www.gizmoproject.com) allows you to by using a proxy to convert SIP to Jingle. It also does the same thing for Yahoo! Messenger and Windows Live/MSN Messenger users. I've no idea how well it works though.
    We'll have to wait until Leopard's released before we know whether Apple has added Jingle support to iChat. If they have you'll be able to do audio (and possibly video) with Gtalk users natively. I wouldn't count on Apple doing this though.

    Hi gerson,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions
    iChat will text chat to MSN or Yahoo!
    See the first three numbered links here http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page5.html
    As Defcom says it needs another App or option to Video

  • Voice chat in Yahoo Messenger beta 2 version for Mac

    I downloaded Yahoo Messenger beta 2 version. I am not able to voice chat with friends like I used to do in a windows PC. My friends say they get an error message while attempting for voice chat. error message that version is different. Could someone please identify the problem and suggest a solution.

    Since Yahoo Messenger is not an Apple product you should look to Yahoo support for answers:

    Of since you're friends are the ones who receive the error message, perhaps they should upgrade their messenger.

  • Voice chat in Jabber messenger

    Hi,everyone
    I am developing the messenger application based on Jabber protocol in J2SE that provides the basic functionality of messenger plus whiteboad,audio\vedio chatting and conferencing , file transfering and desktop sharing.We are actually three persons working on this project along with one project leader.We are using Wildfire as Jabber server and mounted this server on Tomcat Apache.We have completed the chat,group chat and whiteboard.Now we are lookin for the right alternate for voice chat .So please tell me what should i suppose to do now I mean how java implements SIP,VOIP,SID like protocol OR Libjingle library provided by Google.
    Please help me.
    Sach Farmer

    Java doesn't implement any of these. Some libraries written in Java do. Though J2SE has no standard library for either of those, I think. There might be 3rd party libs you can use - you already know Google, so I don't need to hint you at it.

  • Conflict between using msn messenger in offline mode and full screen mode

    I don't want to be visible in my msn messenger for the simple reason that I don't want to get chats all the time, but when I'm in off-line mode in msn messenger and I open a full screen application, immediately the messenger goes online. This happens with full screen games and while watching a youtube video in full screen. Why is this and how can I fix this?
    Andreas

    Your profile indicates you are running Tiger.
    Please update it or repost in Tiger forum.
    Thanks.
    Since msn messenger is not an Apple product, you might also check to see if there are any forums in the MS area.
    This might be a good start

  • Voice Chat Using Director/ Mulituser server

    Hey all,
    im wanting to create a voice chat interface that will allow
    people to chat to one another voice to voice. Much like Teamspeak
    Ventrillo etc. but simpler.
    Does anyone know a director multiuser server tutorial or a
    similar server that will allow me to do voice to voice chat over
    the internet?
    any help greatly recieved
    Andy.

    The Flash Com publishes a sound file to a folder on the
    server. The remote Flash client then streams in the sound file and
    plays it. Director can stream an. swa or an .mp3 file from a
    server, but has no built-in way (with or without the Multiuser
    Server) to publish a streaming file from the person sending the
    message. There may be other ways to do this that I am unaware of,
    perhaps via PHP...

  • A Question about using MSN Messenger

    Hi
    I am quite new to Mac, so I have a noob question
    When I tried to log in MSN, It asked me to download a newer version MSN.
    when the download was finished, I have a Messenger.bin file
    Can anyone tell me how to use that file to update my MSN please?
    Thanks a lot

    Hi,
    To extract the contents of the .bin-file, you should download Stuffit Expander. Install Stuffit, run it and try to double-click the bin-file. Normally it'll extract its contents (in this case, probably an installer for Messenger).
