asterisk users - Sep 2011 - RTP stream when * and Xlite are both behind Nat devices.

Hi,

I have an Asterisk box behind a NAT address and also a Xlite 4 soft phone
behind a different NAT network.

Asterisk -> Nat -> Internet -> Nat -> Softphone.

I can register my softphone to the asterisk box ok via SIP but the RTP
stream from the asterisk box is addressed to the private non-routeable
address of the softphone when I turn on rtp debuging.

How can I configure the rtp stream to be sent to the public facing address
of the softphone?

Cheers,

Richard.

Hi rcswebb,


I had a problem like yours :
Asterisk -NAT - internet - NAT - 3CX phone

Without modifiyng Astrisk conf I could start a call from the client but
without hearing a sound.

The solution for me was to force Asterisk to modify the outgoing udp packet
to insert it's public ip and not the private IP behind the NAT .

So in your sip.conf I modified :

[general]
*externip=YouEternalIP*
NAT=Yes


Hope that'll help :-)
