asterisk users - Jun 2005 - Dynamic IAX Server

Hi:

I read many documents and I posted my question several
times here without luck. I hope someone can help now
please. Here is an example to demonstarte my problem:

Suppose you manage the FWD server, how do you define
an IAX client behind nat so he can receive calls from
FWD.

NAT client would register with FWD to let it know how
to locate it. I just don't see how FWD finds the nat
client. How is that translated in terms of IAX.conf
contexts and what FWD dial in extensions.conf file.

Regards;
Chawki

You just need to read up on IAX a little.  IAX has no trouble with
firewalling.  

As long as the client registers to the IAX server, the path will be
defined and connectivity will occur.
It may look like an odd port if you don't have a static port forward in
place but it will work.
If you really want the mechanics of how then google up IAX.

There is nothing special in iax.conf or extensions.conf.  Just use the
example given for a logical dialplan and all should work fine.

Cheers,
Wiley
