asterisk users - May 2003 - Configuration for ATA186 behind a NAT?

I wonder if someone out there could loan me a peek at their sip.conf?

I have conflicting advice, for instance, about whether or not to use 
"nat=1" and also whether or not the ATA should be registering with the
instance of asterisk it is going to be using to dial out.

Thanks in advance.

Brian,

The ATA 186 doesn't have to register with * - I have mine set up with fixed 
addresses and just use sections like this for each interface:

[cisco]
type=friend
username=cisco
insecure=yes
secret=!x!x!
host=ata186.myhome.net
callerid="Iain" <10>
canreinvite=no

You don't need the nat option unless your * box is behind a separate 
firewall.

  Iain

There are some examples of ATA-186 entries in there.

Make sure that your NAT'ed ATA-186 has  ConnectMode: 0x00460400 
so that it knows how to handle the "Via:" headers Asterisk will hand 
back to it if you have nat=1
