asterisk users - May 2005 - Do sipura 200 and linksys pap2 ATAs send their mac address in REGISTER message?

HI All:

  I was just wondering, Do sipura 200 and linksys pap2 ATAs send their mac
address in REGISTER message?  Is their any other way to get the MAC address of
sip peer who is trying to register?

  Thanks

  Karim

Last time I checked, the MAC address is not transmitted in any SIP
message. The only way I can think of getting the MAC address if the
device is remote (not on the same LAN) is by having the ATA to send a
provisioning request with its MAC address and then match them up. Not
fool proof, especially behind NAT...

No, the PAP2-NA does not send its MAC address in a REGISTER message.
