[Asterisk-Users] Dial command to connect two channelsand bypassasterisk server
Why not? If the client that's behind the NAT is able accept media directly from Asterisk (which is in the public network), it should be able accept media directly from another client. Otherwise, the whole STUN scheme is not going to work. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com]On Behalf Of Kevin P.

The problem is when Asterisk is behind NAT and one of the client is also behind the same NAT.No, it won't. If one of the clients is behind a NAT firewall, you cannot tell that firewall to start accepting media directly from the other client. In some situations it _may_ work, but it is not reliable. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
