Jeremy, It looks like at some point Asterisk decides that vgw1's SIP port is no longer 5060. This may have to do with the NAT settings for that device: Before 'sip reload' | After 'sip reload' ------------------------------|----------------------------- * Name : vgw1 | * Name : vgw1 ... | ... Force rport : Auto (Yes) | Force rport : Auto (No) Symmetric RTP: Auto (Yes) | Symmetric RTP: Auto (No) ... | ... Addr->IP : 10.9.1.9:59934 | Addr->IP : 10.9.1.9:5060 ... | ... Status : UNREACHABLE | Status : OK (19 ms) Since the device is on the same subnet as your Asterisk server, you could try setting 'nat=no' for the vgw1 peer. That may not be a good long-term solution because of its security implications¹, but it could help determine if the NAT settings are the cause of the problem and serve as a stopgap until you figure out why the port is changing. Alternatively, you could try setting 'port=5060' for the vgw1 peer, but that's the default so it may still get changed. ¹ From sip.conf.sample: IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE that if the nat setting in the general section differs from the nat setting in a peer definition, then the peer username will be discoverable by outside parties as Asterisk will respond to different ports for defined and undefined peers. For this reason it is recommended to ONLY DEFINE NAT SETTINGS IN THE GENERAL SECTION. Specifically, if nat=force_rport in one section and nat=no in the other, then valid peers with settings differing from those in the general section will be discoverable.
