Many other VOIP PBX systems have option to change UDP timeout. How to do it in FreePBX?
Explanation why this is needed here:
What do I do when my phones keep changing to Unreachable over time? (digium.com)
It’s not a PBX setting. As the article states, you can make a change on your router or firewall to allow longer UDP sessions. Or you could set your phones to issue keepalive messages (usually an empty packet or SIP OPTIONS) that are sent regularly enough from the phone to the PBX to keep the path open.
My remote phones have NAT keep alive interval set to 15 (when it was set to 25 there were more instances of reachable/unreachable) so it seems to be a good improvement; should it be lowered to 10 secs to further eliminate the issue?
You can try that. It seems like your NAT is very aggressively closing sessions. You might want to look into that setting on your router/firewall.
I have 1-1 static NAT with ports forwarded at the PBX location
can you clarify that is what you mean?

The reason I ask is because sometimes (first log paragraph), it doesn’t show unreachable and the phone flashes as unregistered, thene log shows contact deleted, added AOR, and then reachable again.
And then in the 2nd paragraph of logs above, it also displays Unreachable. So why is that showing unreachable as well and what is the most common cause for this sort of issue.
