 "RTP proxy is vulnerable for a while when is waiting
for data to learn
  source address. We can decrease probability by reasonable
learning
  timeout."

I disagree here. Do the math, or run the attack tests
yourself, it takes 
quite little bandwidth to denial (and hijack calls from) 
a "promiscuous" RTP proxy, even with randomized
ports numbers within a 
large port range. 12 or even 14 bits of entropy are seldom
acceptable.

Like it or not, the only "safe" ways to run SIP
behind NATs requires 
either, encryption (e.g. SRTP), some NAT traversal mechanism
on the 
clients (e.g. ICE) or an ALG within the client's own NAT.
